This writer for a Florida newspaper has wriiten an editorial that represents
the viewpoint of many of us ................bobford
.....................................................................


Excerpt:

"Be honest. What have you learned from the first two presidential debates? Do
you expect to be any more enlightened by tonight’s third and final showdown
between Barack Obama and John McCain?

If you’re like my friends and associates outside the newsroom, you’re setting
the bar pretty low this evening. If these “debates” have proven anything,
they confirm our two-party choice is dumb and dumber (you pick).

Three months before the current market meltdown, the Wall Street Journal
carried this headline: “The State of the Union? Furious.” When the
ever-bullish Bible of U.S. capitalism acknowledges that the natives are
restless, you know things are serious.

But the Journal, like the rest of the mainstream media (MSM), persists in the
notion that America’s political duopoly — fronted and funded by the same
racketeers who got us into this mess — can deliver solutions. "
