And now the election is really, well, an election, not any different than any of the other elections, except for the people running in it beat criteria.
Other than that, whoever wins, will win because of the same reasons their predecessors won, not because they did much else. Right now, Obama is starting to lose the slick loverboy shield around him, and McCain is not the glamorous maverick.
They're both open to annihlation, and it's balanced, and square, the media steps out, the election steps in.
This can go either way, because the pendulum has been set loose, the gloves are off, and the hands are fighting each other, and the pendulum is watching, while we watch the pendulum. Volatility is the name of this election, and it's going to go down to the wire, so in a way, I'm happy about that, we've got a real election going on for once, the facts remain, the insults fly, and the results will be final, no questions asked from sane people.
I got to have this in mind from now on, since this isn't 1980, where Carter automatically lost, it's the real stuff.
Enjoy!
