We listen carefully now. This is a trend that will continue. People want to know what is going on, and what will affect them, but they are tired of the hysterical screaming freaks that point out the smallest infraction like it was a well organized assault on their liberties. They are not going berserk calling names and pointing out flaws and failings. No, they are building a quiet case which will stand like a wall against the insignificant barbs of the insignificant candidates.
Some sensationalism still persists, of course.
But unlike past elections the special interest groups have accumulated enough power that they can act calmly now. Yes, we will see some wild antics as November draws closer. Predictably they will be from fringe groups that are mostly insignificant. Ironically they make themselves insignificant by their antics. People are just sick of the charade.
