I guess the main theme of both campaigns, then, is "Trust me. I will be better than the other guy."

So, election day may be a national game of blind man's buff, only removing the "dangerous obstructions" is impossible.

Blind man's buff is played in a spacious area, such as outdoors or in a large room, in which one player, designated as "It", is blindfolded and gropes around attempting to touch the other players without being able to see them, while the other players scatter and try to avoid the person who is "it", hiding in plain sight and sometimes teasing them to make them change direction.

Blind man's buff is ideally played in an area free of dangerous obstructions so that the "It" player will not suffer injury from tripping over or hitting something.

In related news, the Jimmy Kimmel Show did "person on the street" interviews about "last night's debate between Michelle Obama and Ann Romney." People on the street had no shortage of opinions about which woman did the best in the debate. Even the guy who said that he had to be "honest" about having watched only a small portion of the debate when asked about specifics had picked a clear winner. Others asked for specifics just gave the win to the woman who had displayed the best overall appearance and demeanorl.

What's that saying about getting the government we deserve?

Please, step away from the koolaid, ya all, the grape and the raspberry alike because each of us does not get his or her own government; and it's unfair that I'll get stuck with the same government deserved by everyone who was able to pick a clear winner in the Michelle vs. Ann debate.
