tuning out the presidential election
With a number of contenders sniping for visibility and sound bites, the presidential primaries proved far more interesting than the two-candidate race we now witness in the months leading to the November election. I admit the change we seek from that last seven years of Bush administration incompetence, nepotism and deception - may not amount to the dramatic policy sweep our country merits.
Yet, the choice between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain strikes me as overwhelmingly obvious.
