The US election looks like professional wrestling and you are viewed as wrestling fans who think it is real. If anyone is watching it closely, they are probably laughing about it.

An accurate insight on their part. The winner of the Presidential race will have the same effect as the winner of the WWF title has on the WWF. Nothing will change.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Probably true, Toad. The problem lies in the fact that the campaign process has become a circus.

The bigger problem in my view is that while everyone is closely watching the Presidential race, 95% of encumbants running for congress will be re-elected even though they rate half as trustworthy as used car salesmen.

Here in Minnesota we've already got a heated Senate race going between Norm Coleman and, yes, you've got it right... Al Franken!  Yikes!  Added to that, Jesse Ventura almost threw his hat in the ring but bowed out at the last second.

It seems, increasingly, you have to be a celebrity of sorts to get into politics.  Sad.  We might as well just elect Jessica Simpson, Brittney Spears or Lindsy Lohan, making the call by the most searched celebrities on Google.  Look out world... "Oops, I did it again".  On the other hand we may end up with a beneficial program like an international ban on killing Sea Chickens.

no.. something will change.. the winner will appoint judges who will be around to do damage long after he has been booted out.
