Being a distant cousin from across the Atlantic, I resist making pointed comments about politics, and political thespians.
I admire that Europeans generally seem to be less inclined to volatility in their political discussions. But I find my self still inclined to ask the same questions I ask of my local political theater... namely, what, in effect, is the difference between the "before the election" and the "after the election?" Does anything truly change?
After elections, is there a sudden surge of "shit getting done" or problems finally being "fixed?" I can tell you that over here, nothing really changes (at least substantively.)
