Better than NASCAR

I grew up in Indiana, home of the Indy 500. I know the real deal: the main attraction of auto racing is the potential for a crash or two. And, that's what makes this election cycle so dang interesting. With so many candidates in the field, watching to see which ones will crash and burn, or just run out of gas before the conventions next summer, is great sport. Giuliani's got some 'splaining to do or being in pole position on the Republican side won't matter much. Elizabeth Edwards' position on same-sex marriage could create some interesting problems for John, but kudos to her for taking on the evil witch Ann Coulter.

I 'd like to focus on the candidates' positions on the issues, but how can I when there are so many distractions?
