IF YOU LISTENED TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA (OR IF YOU READ A BUNCH OF BLOGS FOR THAT MATTER), you might be forgiven for concluding that the most important issues in the Bush-Kerry race for the presidency include the following:
--Whether Kerry should quote scripture on the campaign trail.
--Whether Bush should crack jokes about Iraq WMDs.
--Whether Kerry can snowboard without falling (and whether he should be nicer to his secret service help).
--Whether Kerry should reveal the identities of unnamed "foreign leaders" who support his candidacy.
--Whether Kerry used botox to smooth out that furrowed brow.
--Whether either side has "gone negative" and "engaged in more mud-slinging than has been seen since the days of . . . "
Only seven more months of this to go!
