Our process takes less time to elect but then we aren't electing a head of state in Canada. We are electing a Parliament. The difference being the party has already elected it's head at a separate convention.
That said, I agree. The US system appears to be in constant election cycle. It's amazing they get anything done.
From my point of view it really does look like McCain is the Republican's John Kerry (i.e. someone has to run so it might as well be him). It is the Democrats election to lose. As for Clinton vs. Obama... from where I am sitting Obama looks pretty good but the longer this primary season goes on without a clear winner, it looks like more damage is being done to Obama than Clinton.
McCain is the dark horse of this election.
