I don't know about you, but I'm tired of the election hoo-ha as we get closer to V-Day. I'm afraid the election result is going to be very close and possibly end up with a decision by the Supreme Court. That would mean two elections being decided by the Supremes this century. The only two we have ever had. It does not bode well for our Democratic Republic.

The passion from the loyal opposition is admirable, but they and those supporting the current administration show little constraint. And it is all being played out on Facebook. True believers of both Romney and President Obama need to have open, polite communications based on facts and not GOP or Democratic rhetoric. Given the temperment being displayed on Facebook, the losing side may go ballistic. The Tea Party leadership will probably stroke out, and the Democratic leadership will have to wear depends until after the inauguration.

But civil constraint, objectivity and truth have been thrown out with the baby and the bathwater by both parties. It started when the Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell went on record with the media saying the Senate Republicans would not help President Obama because they want to win this campaign. And Vice President Joe Biden's sharp tongue has certainly added fuel to the fire.

May I suggest with all this mud being thrown around by both campaign staffs, the incessant Facebook bickering by followers has lead to a wonderful opportunity to decide the outcome by a more physical process.  Instead of a debate, let's have MUD WRESTLING.

And to help lower the deficit put it on pay for view world wide at $20 a screen and not show it in sports bars. If 1 billion people watched the "Mud Tussle for the White House" a potential $10,600,000,000.

That would kill two birds with one stone. We get a president and an obscene amount of money to lower the nation's debt.

I like it.
