I agree that politicians can only get away with what the voters allow. It is politics as usual though. How exactly do you propose we "hold our politicians to a higher standard"? Currently the system isn't really set up to allow us to do that in any meaningful way. We desperately need campaign finance reform.
You yourself said that you were going to vote for gwbush because you didn't think anybody else could effectively fight terrorism. That's fine, vote how you want. Just acknowledge that currently, there are more important things at stake than whether el presidente is bought and paid for by special interests.
