I have come to learn that anybody that deals in absolutes (meaning they can't see more than their own perspective) is not worth listening to at all.

The very nature of politics has always been this way though only the level of money being spent has increased over time because more lobbyists are pouring money in to help their party.
I disagree with your statement about money should be spent educating voters. If someone is voting they should be educating themselves on the issues that concern them. The information is readily available and out there for people that are willing to find out about it. Most people don't and they just stick with the bullet points that their particular party is spewing at the time.
