Caldwell POLITICAL CAMPAICNS Political campaigns some times got kind of heated,, and strong words are spoken on both sides. We've heart) it said that this Is u n d i g nified, that tru t h be comes dis torted, and campaig n s ought to be con ducted o n a higher plane. That may be true in its way. And you could also add that a rough, hard-fought campaign is a lot harder on the candidates. Still and all, a slam-bang cam paign has some things to be said for it. An old-fashioned political free-for-all makes people listen, if the voices get loud enough. Otherwise they might just be too busy. Most people won't eavesdrop on a private con versation, spoken softly . . . but It's pretty hard not to lis ten in on a quarrel where the voices are raised. And when we listen, even though we might have to take some of the claims and counter-claims with a grain of salt, we are reminded that we are a democracy, and that we have a choice to make.
