Will No One Rid Me of This Tiresome Election?

"May I have another, please?"
No, this isn't David Copperfield or Tale of Two Cities.
This is the 2008 race.
And, my "another" refers to choices.
Isn't there a dark horse out there to rescue America from the mediocrity of the current crop. Or, can we combine some of the issues into one candidate? Like Tancredo on immigration reform, Guilianni on law enforcement, Romney on management, McCain on foreign policy?
More importantly, does anyone have a vision of how to correct the difference, the chasm, the abyss, between what America is today and what the Founding Fathers envisioned?
What happened to individual responsibility? To respecting yourself though individual accomplishment at whatever personal sacrifice?
What happened to community socialization and enforcement of cultural norms?
What happened to parental values and parenting of adherence to respect for your fellow citizens, respect for property rights?
What happened to community, and national, leaders who care more about doing what's right, that getting elected? Did they ever exist, other than in idealistic dreams? Did "Mr. Smith" ever go to Washington?
