I can't even find out if it's going to rain tomorrow because of all the political coverage. I just wished it was over, so whoever it is can get into office and do nothing they said they would, so we can gripe about them and elect someone new.

I really hate Americans like you, you are exactly the reason why the US is one of the most hated countries in the world.
Your country tries to spread the theory of democracy and freedom of speech yet you decide that sending a military force into a country because they disagree with you is the best way to solve it?... Bit hypocritical don't you think? Sounds more like a dictatorship that a democracy.

Yeah, it's always Bill Clinton's fault. Without re-writing history, in fact, U.S. stature around the world has fallen due to our insane foreign policy under Bush. Back in 1998, the rest of the world's respect for us started falling not because our President had an affair, but because we dropped all other business to focus exclusively on impeaching him over that incredibly trivial matter -- despite barely 25% public support for impeachment, our political and journalistic classes made it their sole focus. Sorry, Republicans, this one drops in your laps all the way.

I'm in the UK and I absolutely love watching about the US Presidential Campaign. I always stay up until the early hours to watch the results come in. In fact I kind of care more about the US elections than the UK elections. Not because I particually care about America but because the atmosphere is really great.
I watch the news channels here that give more coverage to international news rather than the silly national stories about cats stuck up trees (not literally).

I'll tell you what it is. The good ole USA is like Britney Spears. The entire world tunes in to see what dumb stuff we'll do next.
