Poisoning the Well

[cyrano]

Rich Dansky, who is an intelligent and well spoken fellow on his worst day, has just written a post which articulates my concerns about the election process and particularly the tactics of pouring gas on your supporters' hate fire, and how that affects "What is best for the country" and what then happens on 05 November.

The election is making me die a little bit inside.

Last night I was told; "That's what vice-presidential candidates are for;" to launch attacks against your opponent.

But once again this is American politics at its predictable worst. McCain knows he's losing, and he's probably starting to realize that Palin was a bad choice. (Too late.)

When you give up a "battleground" state it's not a good sign, and economic bad times tend to favor Democrats. Plus, he did a terrible job at the last debate.

Obama will probably win a (typically bitter and nasty) election.
