Canada vs. America. "30"
30 days vs 30 months to pick a candidate. Who wins?

1. Yeah, and a whole lot less cash to do it as well.... This US election thing...
needs to be thrown out with the stone ages.... What the hell is this 30 months and millions of dollars later... If you can't get it right in the first 30 days, then you need to use your waranty....

3. We're in the middle of a Provincial Election right now
30 days, and compared to the marathon I experienced as a US citizen during a campaign, this short, to the point, and substantive.

4. As an American living in Soviet Canuckistan (bless it!)
I've never become accustomed to the condensed elections here. One thing I do enjoy is telling campaign volunteers who knock on the door that I'm not a citizen here and can't vote. I always wish them well, though, except those campaigning for the Conservatives.:evilgrin:

5. Maybe 30 days wouldn't work here, but this ain't right! It's too long,
but on the other hand, Obama might just win, and how sweet would that be?

7. Yeah. I'm already sick of this. 30 days would be nice.
By November I'll probably be tearing my hair out.
