Many polls show that Americans think that the economy is the most important issue in the Presidential election. In fact, it’s a dividing view. Republicans think that McCain will be better for the economy, while Democrats think that Obama will be better. Here’s my thought: Rationally, every American should know that it doesn’t matter who they vote for. After all, both parties are on television right now talking about how bipartisan the efforts are. Both parties are working together. If it is such a dividing issue, then how is it possible that they are working on the same plan? How can there be such uniting agreement? Oh sure, there’s disagreement about the executive compensation portion, but overall, we’re getting assurances left and right from the … Left and Right.

I don’t know how to reconcile the public support for this combined effort and the public division over the economy. Is it simply an issue of who to blame? Is that the only thing we disagree on? Both parties agree on the correct course of action, but point fingers in opposite directions about the cause?

If I voted for a party because I felt my party was correct, and the other party was wrong, I think I’d be upset to see the two parties propose virtually identical solutions. Otherwise, why did I bother to vote?

Well, at least we still have religion and war as issues.
