Dig deep and send lots of money to our side. Can't let the other side out-spend us.

Unfortunately, it points out how asinine our politics have really become. It's now us the good people vs them the bad people on everything, not we the people.

I have to agree. One can spend alot of time trying to sift through the BS to get to the facts.

Yep. The whole thing has become like a pay-per-view 'event.' Instead of debates, the candidates from each side should just step to the middle of 'the squared circle', microphone in hand, and declare (in as loud a voice and as over-the-top manner as they can manage) that they - and not the 'other side' - will win Electionmania 2012, BROTHER!

And the sad thing is that so many people - just like many of the fans of 'professional' wrestling - believe that all the nonsense is real and that their candidate is the 'good guy' who is incapable of lying, etc.
