Are you sick of politics? Are you counting down to the election so that we can get a rest from all the ads, posturing, etc.?”

Oh, God, YES! I'm so sick of it. And what's irritating is that even after putting all my phones on the do-not-call list, I'm STILL getting recorded political messages from both parties. As soon as I hear that recorder, I hang up. I put my phones on the list for a reason so I wouldn't be bothered. Seems that the political crap is exempt. Go figure. :-(

totally sick of it. For me, the candidates are like night and day, so the speeches and debates aren't going to sway me, let's just vote already! I'm also sick of having to defend why I'm not blindly supporting another woman running for office. Sometimes I think the only thing good about the election season is the comedic fodder it provides to SNL and Daily Show! ;)

I am totally counting the days until I can stop listening to these guys. The name calling, the digging for mud..oh grow up kids! Tell me what you can do for me, how you will do it and why I should believe you. If I wanted to hear whiny, namecalling, fingerpointing kids I'd keep mine up past their bedtimes.

Yes, I can’t wait for all of it to be over. My family and relatives can discuss civilized again :)

I'm not sick of politics at all. This election has been fantastically interesting. If the stakes weren't so high, I'd say I was having fun.

On one hand, I'm interested in what's going on and I have strong views of my own. On the other hand, I am sick of lies and rhetoric and stump speeches designed to mislead the ignorant. I am tired of hearing the same thing repeatedly from each candidate and even more tired of hearing the media "pundits" spin everything to favor their pet candidate. Living in Ohio is a blessing (our vote matters!) and a curse (you wouldn't believe how many pieces of mail I've gotten from the democratic party this week alone). Save a tree, dudes, I know whom I'm voting for!

You know how something is going on for so so SOOO long, that when the end finally approaches, you're almost incredulous that it's really happening? That's how I feel. :-) And I can't wait to stop getting those annoying recorded messages urging us to vote for this local official or that local official. Aaargh!! - Paula.
