TV commentators seem shocked that
many states permit early voting.
They want citizens to wait for the
end of the campaign before deciding
so analysis of polls, commercials,
and potential gaffes in the debates
can influence the election result.

Anyone who watched Bush’s six year
4th of July parade, and hasn’t picked
a political party by now, might as well
flip a coin. Since neither candidate is
likely to change his party’s philosophy,
and either would recruit political regulars
for his team, everyone should vote party.

We can continue fighting wars and
boosting business with borrowed money,
or begin the difficult task of paying
as we go. Pundits know we could decide
that now, but if we did, we would stop
watching them and go back to more
intellectually stimulating reality TV.
