Kathryn Jean Lopez has a great article about Michael J. Fox’s recent campaign commercials in Missouri and Maryland: Political commercials are not known for their honesty or subtlety, but these Fox ads hit home in a particularly painful way; their blatant dishonesty does a terrible disservice to those whom they pretend to want to help …
