@Teri_Kanefield In addition to the media disruption, there's a problem that's been with us for decades - the insistence on only voting for someone you agree with completely ("purity"). I see this more strongly on the left than the right, and have since Humphrey lost to Nixon when I was a kid. People I know on the right say "s/he's worse, so I'll vote against them", whereas ones on the left say "I refuse to vote for the lesser of 2 evils", thus allowing the greater evil to win.
