I'm barely hanging in there with this darn election! One of the most important that I can remember in my lifetime. But in most of the world that I know they get it over and done with in a month or so - and that since before the advent of TV, let alone the internet..

If I was a candidate I'd need 6 months to recover and whoever wins is going to have to jump right in and deal with the biggest world financial crisis in living memory without even a break to work on it!
Is this nuts or what?
Oh and today one of the big stories on propeller was about whether a pic on the cover if Newsweek showed some facial hair on the female VP candidate..
Sigh..Call me exhausted in Europe.
Thanks for your ability to stay with it James!-

When you think about it, what better way to choose a future President then to essentially slowly torture him/her mentally while exhausting him/her physically, then see how they react under the stress? It does tell you a certain something about them.

Yes, our election cycle is ghastly--a marathon that exhausts both the candidates and the public, even as it flushes several hundred million dollars down the toilet. We should have a four-month election process, with compulsory public financing for all candidates who make it through the primaries. Oh, and can we dump the electoral college while we're at it? :)

I like the electoral college, it just needs a tweak. Perhaps doing it like Nebraska and Maine allocate the votes; by congressional district with the winner of the popular vote picking up an extra two. Otherwise I fear all the advertising would go to attempting to pick up cities and completely ignore areas with a low population density.
