Welcome to the "post W" era of politics :)

Even dyed-in-the-wool liberals are saying "My god, at least McCain isn't
Bush". And no matter how badly Obama wants to paint McCain as another
Bush....it just aint so. There will never be another Bush (thankfully).

If you can dismiss the stupid shit, you are right....this is an election
between two pretty good candidates. The problem is, so many people I talk
too can't get past the stupid shit....they think Obama is a marxist or a
Muslim or they think McCain is another Bush or he wants to push their
grandpa down the stairs.

When I tell my republican friends that I'm considering Obama, they look at
me like I have a horn growing out of my head....."he's a marxist!" (Bleck!)

When I tell my liberal friends that I'm considering McCain, they about have
a coronary "How can you vote for Bush!!!!" (Gimme a break)

Is it bad to hope that one of them fucks up today to make the decision

Yes, yes it is :)
