Nah, it's over. Although part of me is morbidly curious to see America under God Emperor Trump, the reality of the situation will force me to rely on hilarious internet memes. Probably for the best.

Anyone getting tired of the political commercials on television yet? What a load of crap!! No one on either side talks about what they would do while in office, its just attack after attack!! And its going to get worse as we get closer to election day!

Well, my election ballot arrived by mail today. After months of agonizing, I've made my choice at last. Glad that nightmare is over with.

I haven't seen one. Seriously.

Amazing that Clinton's duplicity as revealed in Wikileaks has not gotten much attention. Some of this stuff is Nixonian. I guess it proves the adage that people believe what they want to believe.

Quote:

'A public and a private position'
In excerpts from one of Mrs Clinton's paid speeches to Wall Street bankers, she said: "Politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be.
"But if everybody's watching, you know, all of the back room discussions and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position."

That reminds me of the Obamacare architect's admission that the American public was stupid, and the nation shrugged.

I think that most people, deep down, admit that politicians are duplicitous and that it seems to be just part of the job. That, coupled with the never ending font of headlines that is the Donald is probably why that didn't get much spotlight.

So how long will it be before Clinton declares war on Russia once she wins?

Her tone is sure getting close to the line.

Have these two awful candidate finally woken people up and in four years time both party's will put up better candidates than these two pudding heads.

This whole 'No-Fly Zone' over Syria will certainly be interesting.

Probably not. The world seems filled with people who are convinced they're right, and seem incapable of talking about anything other than how bad the other side's guy (or gal) is.

Some information about your politicians-and it goes where ever they practice their politics around in the world

They are clever enough to get you and others to vote on them or their parties.
