Well politics so far have been not what they used to be. They have become insulting and harsh towards people's opponents. This year's presidential election has not been about what candidates are going to do. But instead focus on what the other candidate might not do. It is all attacks on the other person (as was pointed out in the latest debate).
As far as I can tell this year's election will be a close one. There is no obvious winner. Not only have the meaning of "politics" changed over the years but some people have voted but the people that vote are not always paying close attention. All people can agree we want a good president that actually keeps thier promises to the people. But what some people look for is a different president and just hope to get a good president elected. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/presidentialdebates/3091056/Presidential-debate-verdict-No-clear-winner-between-John-McCain-and-Barack-Obama.html
Overall elections have changed completly since this system of goverment was established in the United States. For the most part, not in a good way. Pointing out that the downsides of your opponent does not make you a good president but only make you look better than the other person.
