2008 General Election

This race is like a movie at this point, you have such great characters: The old ranting POW war veteran whose entire body was injured and he swivels like a puppet, the young charismatic and inspirational mixed race candidate who came out of nowhere to topple the establishment, the cute miss apple pie who stands up to the big boys with a gun and has been a commercial fisherwoman, and a guy from Scranton who won't shut up. It's better than reality TV, and even the supporting cast is phenomenal: The pregnant daughter with the redneck hockeyplayer boyfriend, the corrupt Chicago political machine, Oprah, the Snowmobile racer husband, Bill Clinton. I hope they come out with a DVD. When both sides come down from their respective orgasms after the election, the half of the electorate that feels shut out can take solace in knowing that they helped produce America's most valuable export: Entertainment.
