No sh*t.
Both Republicrat candidates are avoiding substantive discussion of issues like the plague.
All the more reason to vote "none of the above".

There's an election underway. Conversation about issues is ended.

Well, you're in Nevada so you matter a tad. If I didn't know that, I would not be paying my own travel to Reno next weekend to work the phones for the campaign, where I volunteered two weeks ago. Cheap airfare from Utah. No big deal.
You know, the reason this issue wasn't embraced by either side is pretty clear. It's because focus groups could not make clear what was the winning position. More specifically, what was the winning position in battlegrounds of the midwest.
Bush took a position and Kerry didn't. That's pretty much that.
I know little of the details of the issue. I suppose "close the borders and defend them" involves automatic weapons. Is there a presumption that troops are to mow them down as they approach? Or what does a big fence that long cost and will conservatives complain about furthering the deficit? What is the proposed mechanism on all this?
