> [@The\_Devil\_s\_Grandmother](#): > > In addition to the other campaign reform laws, wouldn’t it be cool if we could get a 8-week campaign cycle? 1st amendment. Besides, note that countries with short campaign cycles also don’t have “regular” elections. They dissolve parliaments in the middle of their terms and declare elections 8 weeks hence. That’s how you get an 8-week campaign cycle. US system would not allow it. ---

> [@Anne\_Neville](#): > > Those are not mutually exclusive options, you know. I’m better off if I drink only one kind of hard alcohol in a day. You are quite right, **Terr**. I just want to dream, ok? After living through Meg Whitman’s 4 \*years \*of radio spots while she was running for governor of California I lost all patience for political advertisements. ---
