“It’s easy to get caught up in the distractions and the silliness and the tit for tat that consumes our politics.” – Senator Barack Obama, Democratic presidential primary campaign speech following a Pennsylvania loss against Senator Hillary Clinton, April 22nd, 2008.

For political junkies, it seems like we’ve always been in the general election season. With Rick Perry imploding, Newt Gingrich dreaming of moon bases, and Rick Santorum failing to create a solid campaign infrastructure, it appeared inevitable that Mitt Romney would eventually win the Republican presidential nomination.

In reality, however, the general election didn’t really start until April 10th, which is when Santorum exited the race. For all the stories, speeches, and attack ads, we’ve only been at this for a little more than three months! Crazy, eh?

As of yet, President Obama’s campaign has resorted to creating a series of distractions. With each passing week, the Obama campaign tosses out a few more shiny baubles to distract from the economy, job creation, and health care. This “let’s focus on anything but what’s actually important” strategy is a far cry from the president’s idea of a good campaign in 2008.
