I've thought quite a bit about the "waaaah this campaign isn't giving me a warm feeling up my leg" stuff. I finally concluded that it's basically just another generation of political journalists (early to mid Bush era) who are a bit older and a bit more entitled now. It's just not fun like it used to be.
Which would be fine, except many of the people we're talking about get paid obscene amounts of money. Do your job or move on.
