    There are people who are not plugged in to US politics that check in somewhere at the end of an election cycle. With so much information to consume and so little time it’s easy for people to have missed something. For political junkies, this is a reminder, but for many people it is a warning.

    I try to take a break from the news at least once a week. Even that one day away can put me behind with everything that happens.

    It’s like that Doctor Who episode with the spaceship next to the black hole. The closer we get to election day the more news that happens in a given day. It’s like we’re slowing down by the black hole and years of news are rocketing past us on the other end of the spaceship.
