8. We need primaries and we need the media to shut the fuck up.

I'm sick of them pimping for some candidates, ignoring others, when no one has cast a vote yet. I'm not so sure the poll results are legitimate but it's natural for people to name the people they've heard of if they don't really follow politics and get called for a poll. Everybody has heard of Hillary Clinton. (Except, of course, for the people who don't know who the president is now or that we have troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.) Ditto Rudy Giuliani ("America's Mayor") :puke: and John Edwards and John McCain because they've run before.

Who named Rudy "America's Mayor," does anyone know? A Tweety Bird?
