I'll be glad when it's over because it has become a circus and it shouldn't be.

I have to agree. I can't even watch anymore. Its become a crazy circus similar to the hype surrounding celebrities. I really hope this doesn't go on for four years. I'm not sure how far we've come if we elect the first black president and continure to focus first and foremost on that fact. He's an articulate, intelligent and educated man and deserves to have more attention directed toward those parts of his character.
