Here we go again! Back to another marathon campaign. Do we realize that we just completed a long, long, dreary presidential primary season where millions upon millions of dollars, guised as campaign contributions, were spent on many, many expenses? Those expenses included TV ads, airfares for a cast of thousands, hotels, food, beverages, conventions, books, parties and enough balloons to eclipse both the sun and moon. This is so hard to swallow for the average $30,000-a-year income workers who are the real voters, who must spend $4 per gallon for gasoline. We also should know by now that there will be a loser and that means a lot of wasted cash, not that the winner deserves all those contributions either. My question is, why not have a front porch campaign? Those of us who are a little bit into history know that in 1896, William McKinley pulled it off with his front porch campaign by simply meeting and greeting people and media at his home and front porch in Canton.
