    Can’t help you on most of those, but the primary hype I think is largely because in most years, the primaries wrap up early with a secure leader, so in many states they become formalities. This year, more states voted earlier and the parties on both sides are split evenly enough that results of any one primary in any one state actually have an impact. That and people are weary of our incompetent leadership and more eager than usual to embrace the process that will change the situation.

    1. honestly, now that huckabee and romney are out, I dont really care who gets elected. (were we seriously considering having a president whos religious beliefs go somewhere along the lines of “natives were punished by god for betraying white men…”? we dont trust the government as it is…) your not gonna meet the real person until they are already in office. no matter who wins, we are rolling the dice hoping to get some degree of genuine competence.

    2. did you see the picture that you linked to? you can have that cover art on a cd of coyotes howling (which it could very well be for all i know) and youd sell enough to go platinum. its a matter of biology and economics.

    3. Mos is too busy doing movies with Jack Black. (pretty funny btw)

    4. of all the ways ive ever heard or seen any living thing die, I would choose to stop breathing in my sleep. wtf did this guy do to warrent such an easy passage?

    5-10. ill take those as rhetorical, though if you have a link for #9 i could use a good laugh.
