Remeber the good olde days when at a conventions an actual platform for the party was developed that defined the things that each party would do when elected? The problem is todays press and talking heads would rather talk about messiahs, pigs in lipstick, was someone for bridge/war and now against it versus real issues like how to get the economy back on track, what they will do to about alternative fuel sources, what their tax cuts/raises really look like, what they will do about illegal immigration and reform of the immigration policies. etc. We have no one talking about issues and resolutions to those issues just a bunch of spew and sheep swallowing it.
