I'd like to remind the frequenters of this forum that its name is "Worldly Talk". Not "USA Talk", "USA politics talk" or "Obama Talk".

I understand that there is an election in the USA this year but it's right at the very end of this year, and if I have to endure hair splitting non-news like whether the "Iowa Caucuses matter" or what color shoes Obama put on today, then this forum has a bleak future.
