Where do the politicians you just voted for get their money?

Politicians on both sides of the aisle are raising campaign funds faster than ever before.  Boyd Matheson, political consultant, says Super Pacs are a big part of that revenue stream.  He says the pacs are where almost all the negative ads come from.

Boyd says people need to be humble about what they think they know and look outside their normal sources of information in order to find out if what they are being fed is true or not.  The first borometer is -- if it sounds 'out there' it's probably not correct.  Please remember to "Disagree Better."
