Is there a time limit?

Is there a time limit for showing Christmas commercials on TV? If there isn't there should be.

We all knew that on Wednesday, November 5th - the day after the election - that all radio and TV advertising for the candidates would be over. So why do we still have to see the same ads for cellular phones, jewelry, and cars that have been running since before Christmas? These aren't the regular ads. These are the ones with Christmas decorations, Christmas trees, snow, lights, presents, bows, wrapping paper, and more.

OK, so maybe the ad people took a couple of days off for the holidays.

I'd like to see these ads retired. While we might be interested in the products that are being advertised, it's clear that Christmas is no longer the motivation for buying them - or at least it should be.
