"Insanity Best Characterizes This Year's Elections On All Levels"
Peg Luksik // The Bulletin

One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, but expecting the result to be different.
One might apply that definition to this year's elections.
Every candidate at every level is running on a platform that somehow involves making things in government different. If the candidate promising to make things different is a challenger, that position makes perfect sense - that is why the person is running in the first place.

It's always like this when a Republican is in the White house. The Democrats go ape-sh*t trying to get their guy in. And the media always helps all they can.

It is a mirror that too few are willing to peer into.
It absolutely escapes my mind to look at how the context of a Presidential election takes place in our country.
Over the course of the past 12-14 months, every cable news networks has ran non-stop, 24/7 coverage and news stories with up to the minute "Breaking News!" flashes about the tiniest little thing every potential candidate has said.
During this same period of time, the American people have been subjected to 24/7 daily scandals out of this administration and Congress. You could probably subscribe to an hourly breaking scandal pod cast somewhere it has gotten so bad. However, the coverage in the news and the discussion in the public isn't about the pinhead destroying our country, it is about the possibility of electing the next savior of the nation.
The following election will be about electing the next guy to save the nation from the last one, and so on and so on and so on.
