Trying to pick through your rant, are you suggesting that the elections be called off this year? Are you suggesting that the Dems stop politicking and campaigning, or does that extent to all parties? I mean, I've already gotten mail and phone calls from the GOP and candidates, asking for donations and support. Should they stop, too?

Anger at the Dems is one thing--and I'm not all fond of them myself, even though I have a few family members who are D's and chalk it up to a character flaw--but suggesting politicans stop politicking is not realistic. Heck, I enjoy elections. I love watching grown men and women making fools of themselves, spending millions for a job that pays $150,000, more or less, a year. I'd only wish the push polls would stop. Now THOSE are really annoying.

At first I thought your question was silly - but you did redeem yourself with your observation of them spending millions for a $150,000/yr. job!

But what I find so distasteful in the DNC/Carville/McAwful game plan is they don't offer any constructive ideas - they only know how to play dirty politics of "tear down" their opponents. IF they were smart, they would be campaigning on PLANS instead of politics as usual. They just don't get "it" and never will........ever more evident since 9/11.
