I am so sick of this election. Turning off the TV wasn’t enough to get away from it. They’re leaving voice mail on my office phone now. ---

Same problem, different year. I did not notice that this cycle was worse than 2000, 2004 or 2008, and I expect 2016 to be about the same. Avoid commercial TV, toss the junk mail in the recycling bin with the rest of the junk circulars and hang up the phone like you would with any other telemarketer. ---

Last night I got a robocall from Jeb Bush asking me to vote for Romney - at work. It was kind of surreal. ---

I like the gaunlet around my precinct handing out flyers (just outside of the cones marking the legally mandated minimum distance). Gee, I am so undecided that the last ad I see/hear is who gets my vote!:rolleyes: ---

In addition to the other campaign reform laws, wouldn’t it be cool if we could get a 8-week campaign cycle? ---
