By whatever deity is listening, I’m tired of it.

I’m tired of the bickering, I’m tired of the lies, I’m tired of the negative campaigning, I’m tired of each side claiming the other side is doing more negative campaigning. I don’t even watch that much television — probably less than two hours per week — I can only imagine how bad it is for the folks who suck on the glass teat on a daily basis. I usually listen to NPR in the morning on the drive to work and basically have retreated to listening to my MP3 player in the car at all times I’m so sick of it all.

When it gets right down to it, I was sick of it all before the conventions.

I have a dream. Maybe, someday, someone can be elected on the basis of how little they clutter up the airwaves and can actually just talk about what they want to do as president or senator or dog catcher. Maybe their each and every flaw can be accepted by the rest of us who also have flaws. Let he who is without sin broadcast the first attack advertisement. And this from a guy who is about as religious as Bill Maher.

For all I hate it, I’ll be voting on November 4th. I’ve explained to my wife — who can’t vote because she’s a Canadian — that in the 24 years since I became eligible to vote I’ve voted in every election, no matter how minor. And I can count on one hand how many times I’ve voted for someone rather than voting against someone. It’s usually like picking the best horse in the glue factory, but I do always vote. The government doesn’t ask for my opinion all that much, the least I can do is give it to them the once every two years that they do ask.

So no matter how scummy I find the candidates, no matter how much I realizer they’re lying about what they’ll do or won’t do, no matter how ineffective I realize the office is, I’ll vote. And you should, too.

My name is David Reed and I approve this message.
