Two More Weeks

For as weird as this election has been, I'm starting to find it mighty tedious. I'm tired of John McCain's desperation (which I'm afraid is going to do nothing but get worse), and I'm tired of Sarah Palin's obliviousness (although I did find it funny when she wouldn't even take questions from the fake reporters during her lame appearance on SNL). Over the weekend, I talked to a friend who had voted earlier and is consciously ignoring the rest of the campaign, and he might just have the right idea.

The whole campaign seems to be getting lopsided, and I find it hard to take the Republicans seriously, but I'm also not overly confident that the Democrats will quite pull it off (because I've seen them not quite pull it off in the past). Still, it's hard to argue against some of the crowds Obama was getting over the weekend. He talked to 100,000 people in St. Louis, and the Decemberists were nowhere in sight. Of course, according to Sarah Palin, the crowd was probably not pro-American. Further making that same point is the fact that, according to the Columbia Missourian, only fifteen people came out to see McCain's plane land. Perhaps I'm not the only one finding all this tedious.
