*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
This must be one of the few opened-ended episodes of The Simpsons. And I must admit I started out thinking it was going to be another piece of trash handed out by the writers, but what I got what a completely oblivious view of the election race. Unlike previous episodes they didn't have the top candidates next to Ralph running. They were only mentioned in playful passing. I do have to admit I really liked the Fred Thompson joke about him being in Die Hard 2. But this episode is really good at showing what people who don't care about politics can really do to harm the process.
This wasn't a straight forward episode but a very good parody on politics. Good job writers for doing it yet again this season!
