The more I read about things like "consolidating the anti Dean vote" and "the DNC will throw it's weight around by super tuesday", the more I'm astonished at how much like a reality show this primary season has been. You've got alliances forming. Scheming in back rooms. Outright lying about candidates.
Is this an anomaly, or is this the future of presidential elections? I don't like reality shows. But I care who gets voted off this island. Does that mean I have to put up with all of this BS? It's a long way until my primary. Not sure if I'm going to make it.

This is how politics has always been (actually, it's better now!), and will always be, I think. Keep trying, that's what counts. There are more important things than elections... like your conscience and your integrity. Family, friends, education, hobbies, and other things too. You'll make it, and become better along the way.

Because he will make big changes that help average people. You can be sure some are working against Dean. Dean needs a huge win to blow them out of the water. It is possible.

with his bad back, I don't know if he can win the physical challenge. If he doesn't get immunity, then how will he keep the others from voting him off?
He's going to have to forge an alliance with someone.
