"It was at the Theatre and at Carnegie Hall that Paul really lived; the rest

While political science is a field in which the dynamics of political discourse may be examined
Also, viewers may perceive the negative advertising as an infringement upon their right to decide for themselves. Such a perception may result in reactance, a boomerang effect in which the individual reacts in a manner opposite to the persuader's intention. What these studies show, then, is that a candidate is never going to know how for sure how a negative ad may impact the voters. In the long run,
