This really IS the worst presidential campaign. This is the worst one my parents can remember (and at least one of them remembers Truman, which is extra weird, because he has Alzheimer's and is still pretty sure Romney is fucked). Palin was an idiot, but so was Dan Quayle, and at least John McCain had a reason to run other than "But I want to be president!"
