horserace til the end...

as the last campaigning day comes to an end, poll numbers, fancy maps, and horserace coverage are the highlights. It just seems like the leads and numbers are what will maybe help some undecided voters make up their mind in the last hours. We have heard debates, attack ads, issues, but now its the last leg, where citizens will decide the fate of America. But the media never stops. They are going to push the polls til the last minutes of election day, with who is in the lead and who looks like the winner, even early on in the day. But the thing is, people want that. And as much as I wasnt more issue covering during the campiagn and we saw more horserace than issues, people are really excited about this election. Polls grab people in, especially on election day. So at this point int he election, more covering of the issues will not matter. The campaigns did their part, and we are ready for this election cycle to be finished.
