Both Democrats and Republicans will be struggling to maintain control of the system, by means of so-called "campaign finance reform" which scews everyone but themselves.

Solid post and highly accurate.
Listen, this election is not fixed. I do not care for the Bush Administration, its general sense of arrogance and superiority and lack of (IMO) an effective economic or cogent foreign policy. I am frustrated and saddened that the 2000 election turned out the way it did. I truly believe the U.S. and in turn the world would be a much better place if Bush had not won, but he DID win - legally and legitimately. The fix is not on, if Bush wins a second term it will be John Kerry's fault for not running a better campaign, just like it is Gore's fault he lost.
And if Bush wins, you wont see me taking my bat and glove and going home (or to Canada) to pout. I will just step up my activism to try to curb any further damage to our ecomonic stability and foreign relations.
