At this point, could we not say that a federal election resembles nothing so much as an NFL game, with two teams of players that everyone "knows" are taking steroids and hormones because they have more and stronger muscles in one arm than the average human has in his whole body, but that no one can/will definitively prove because the ways to get around the detection of cheating are well known and under mutual protection from both teams?
It is interesting, however, that one side in politics protests a lot more whenever the other side proposes changes that would make cheating harder to do.
