I don't know about you, but if I hear one more thing about the US elections, I'm going to scream.
I mean, last time I checked, I was still in the UK, not the US. So why is it that every time I turn on the TV, or the radio, or heaven forbid, read a newspaper, I am bombarded with US election crap? They're reporting more on that here than they do for their own election! Like, even LBC, the radio station I normally listen to in the morning, are broadcasting their daily breakfast show this week from Chicago, so we can get more involved in the elections! Honestly, I could care less!
I understand that the President of the United States is a very powerful man, and we know that the current one has seriously mucked up various countries around the globe, pulling the Poms and even us Aussies blindly into the muck too - but really! None of us have a vote in this election, so do we really need to be bombarded with all this hullabaloo? I know, its history, history, history - but it isn't my history!
Today, whilst they were waiting for the result, they got so desperate for 'new' news (let's be honest - how many times can we hear the reports of people queuing around the corner yada yada yada to vote, care factor really), that they even crossed over to Kenya to do a report on Barama's (I can't be bothered to say Barack Obama) Kenyan grandma. Honestly!
And as for McCain, the fish n chip man, well, did he even have a chance? Of course not!
I'm glad that the whole thing is now finally over... maybe now we'll have some peace and quiet....
