I am neither a dem nor a repub...but I take great fascination in the American electoral process. I have been watching the DNC with great interest, and will do the same next week with the RNC.
But something that has struck me is the unflagging attempts - from both sides - to find fault in the other side...to ridiculous extremes. Repubs have been criticizing Obama for his 'celebrity' status....yet didn't the Repubs have their own REAL celebrity in Reagan? And hasn't he been touted as their greatest of the last century? And what about Arnold in Cali?
Will each side find ANYTHING to pick at the other? Is this country not interested in finding the best? Or are they merely interested in own side - and the best it can offer? And how is it acceptable to the American people that their leaders fight like children in a schoolyard, and yet, are given respect to take them into battle?
