    it's much much worse in the Internet age - Internet was made for people to fling shit at each other and politics is as good as excuse as any to fling poo. the postitive is that i don't think there's ever been this many people going into an election who actually know something about the candidates, even the VP candidates. whether all this interest will translate into record voter turnout - not likely, people on the Net are usually all talk and no walk.

      politics effects us all, its our duty to pay attention

        Okay... a good example, your opinion of Sarah Palin is not going to change tomorrow, Friday, or next Monday... right? I would say that it is a fair assumption.

        So why would you constantly read about her? Picking apart every little thing she does when you already know you don't like her? What are you really gaining out of this? It's gossip. You have your opinion, but you want more dirt, you want more gossip.

        That is sort of my point. Following stories and situations is one thing... posting day after day with new dirty details about somebody that you already know you don't like... what's the point?

        (By the way, not intended specifically at you, I have no idea what you do or don't follow or who you do or don't like.)

          well to be fair, i was standing in a store the other day and there was a sports show on, the few minutes i was forced to listen to was not about the game at all, but was about the "drugs the team members were busted with."

          the "dirt" is what people look for, are entertained by, and crave.

          celebrity gossipp makes more money than brtney spears does. there are more shows dedicated to making fun of celebs than praising them. i cant name a britney spears song or cd, but i know she was just let off her hit and run case in LA LOL

          need i continue?

          im writing my entry right now ;)

                          Don't worry, it will be over soon. They will forget about you right after the election.

                              Politics is my sport of choice. So, it takes a lot for me to get tired of it but it is time for this innings to be over, I agree.

                                I absolutely love politics.

                                Because politicians are this weird mix of like a business person and sort of an actor. They use the system of government and have to be really smooth like Obama to convince us why we should vote for them.

                                And the thing is, they use the system to benefit their own interests. Regardless of what Obama is promising the USA, he is trying to become President to better his life and interests #1.

                                And of course, people break the rules within politics like anything else in life. But not every single one of them all the time. I'm not looking the other way from dirty politics.

                                But they use the system to their advantage, "public service," yeah right. They play with other people's money all day long. And the USA has lots of it.

                                  Plus, there is a narrative to everything that can be interesting to follow. If Obama gets in he will be swept in on the arms of history and expectation only to eventually be hated by the majority of people that voted him in. The same thing will happen to just about anybody because people love the figures until they are actually in control of their pockets. It is watching the downfalls the will come to every leader that gets interesting.

                                  Take the UK at the moment, watching who gets the daggers planted deepest into Brown's back is a bit like a soap opera but better than those on tv to folks like me. Peter Mandelson is a character that could have been written by Dickens with the way he can't be sunk and comes back from the political dead time and time again to haunt the government.

                                      I'm beyond exhausted with it. I can't have a point or a debate or a conversation about politics for another 10 years.

                                      50% of people believe one thing, and the other 50% disagree wholeheartedly. Humans beings just love drama and politics fit right into that.

                                        Its too important to get tired of.

                                        Its the responsibility of all good citizens to be informed in regards to who is running your city, state, and federal governments.

                                          I watch alot of CNN and the British version of CNN and I watch Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Jay Leno and Conan.

                                          During the day I get to see the news stories that will be made fun of later in the night by the other three shows. It keeps me informed and entertained. I have a keen interest in US politics and the world view of it esp in the times of the economic crisis. And I should note that I am not even American!

                                                So why would you constantly read about her? Picking apart every little thing she does when you already know you don't like her? What are you really gaining out of this? It's gossip. You have your opinion, but you want more dirt, you want more gossip.

                                                That is sort of my point. Following stories and situations is one thing... posting day after day with new dirty details about somebody that you already know you don't like... what's the point?

                                                (By the way, not intended specifically at you, I have no idea what you do or don't follow or who you do or don't like.)

                                                I totally agree with you. I don't need to watch it day in and day out...
