The election that was called last week for October 14 seems like a real sleeper, especially when compared to the contest south of the border. The US presidential election is billed as the most important in the history of that country. It’s true that if Barack Obama wins, the United States will have the most far left president that it’s ever had and the impact will be felt for years to come. The election will either see the first black US president or female vice president. It’s an historic contest. And between Obamamania and Sarahmania, the campaign is hard to beat for excitement.
