Political burnout
I think we're all burned out from this campaign. It's beginning to feel
like silence would be better than hearing any further comment,
observation, analysis, or especially bias. Even preference. I'm sick of
it all- the candidates- the pundits- the debates, the coverage. SNL. I
only know one thing for sure right now- I can't vote for a Republican.
Forget "first black," "first woman," "first Depends-wearer," that's it.
Obama could end up as an Eliot Spitzer- full of promise but
ineffective. Both Hillary and McCain could end up as Bush2 on steroids.
I've lost at least a little respect for each and everyone involved- the
candidates- former heroes like Olbermann and Tim Russert- Tom Brokaw
should raise his voice more instead of allowing Joe Scarborough to
disrespectfully dismiss him as being "old-fashioned" for daring to
voice the opinion- "enough analysis- let the people speak." I'm sick of
hearing these ongoing voices. It's like being addicted to some terrible
drug- watching CNN and MSNBC night after night. I need to go to
Political Rehab and save my stomach.
