It seems that folks are already focusing on the next election cycle.  By now I would hope that people realize campaigns are mostly bluster and half truths, coordinated by professional marketing, who's sole purpose is to win the election.   Truth is secondary to marketing values.    

These campaign/political skills are a very real business, but regretfully have little to do with a candidates abilities to lead the nations federal government.  

Maybe we could focus on today's legislation, not in the context of which state we schmooze, but instead ask basic questions of legislation/executive orders:  Is the federal government the appropriate body to address this issue?  Will it work?  What are the benefits and cost?    

Kinda boring stuff, appeals to people that read every box score when baseball season starts!
