After the conclusion of this week's Democratic convention, two months remain until the November elections -- and though the speeches may be done, during the next eight weeks it will be increasingly difficult to avoid politics.

And it will be impossible to turn on the television without seeing an unending barrage of commercials espousing a particular candidate or demonizing the missteps of their opponent.
