What I learnt in political science is that politicians understand two things:
1. Perception - doesn't matter whether it's true or not as long as voters perceive it to be.

Better approach is to completely ignore everything they say. Their funding will disappear in 6 weeks and that will be it for them. Very quiet. No more chatterbox.
