Why is the UK media so obsessed with every little detail in the run-up to the Presidential elections in the USA? The elections don't even take place until the end of the year.
Granted that the US President is an important figure in international politics, and the World will be very glad to see the back of Dubya and his cronies in November, but we in the UK have absolutely no influence on the outcome of these elections. Let's face it: the American people don't have much. We're talking about the politics of a Plutocracy, not a real Democracy.

A Plutocracy you say? That's got to be better than your Mickey Mouse-ocracy.
