Election Disconnection


HIM: It's Election Day. I voted at 7:30 this morning. The democrats finally got their act together this year. I find it amusing that democrats get their act together 4 years after the Bush re-election, but are still trying to sweep the to-be-former President into the debates as a central issue. We all know that it's just silly. Similarly, I find it amusing that the republicans are so unprepared for this election that their best response is the candidate is a terrorist supporter. We all know that it's just silly.
Luckily, the election year pony show falls short of being meaningful for me, as it does for many individual voters. The essence of "what is democrat/republican" should be guiding. We all know what good and bad the parties stand for. Each of the candidates appear to be generally oriented toward those political tendencies. Don't get caught up in the ridiculous frenzy of mudsling. But: DO GET YOUR LOUSY BUTT TO THE POLLS AND VOTE FOR SOMEONE!
