This is what is happening to political discourse and the democratic process during this presidential election: See Steve Bennen's post, "Heckling Voters." I sure will be glad when this election is over.
And yet. . . . Republicans keep jumping ship: Ken Adelman, long-time Republican, says he is planning to vote for Barack Obama. See Adelman's explanation on George Packer's blog at The New Yorker: "First, Colin Powell, Now. . ." and "Adelman Addendum."
I hope that Barack Obama wins the presidential election, but I'm beginning to worry that he will be expected to be all things to all people.
