Which election was/is most interesting to you?

2008 didn't really do anything for me.  After the financial crisis, Obama had pretty much locked-up the election. 

I'm too young to really recall 2000.

So, for me 2004 takes the cake.  It was the first post-9/11 election, the candidates why no way "entertaining" were sometimes quite interesting.  Like mentioned earlier, it was kind of the last "old-school" elections.  The 2004 election, to me, just sums up all that America was at that time--a nation in transistion (Unraveling-->Crisis)

How is it the last "old school" election? Not really sure what you mean.

Between 2004 and 2008, the influence of social networking on elections increased 1,000-fold.  In 2004, you didn't need a Facebook page to win.  That cannot be said anymore.  Hell, in 2004 barely anybody had heard of "blogging".  Traditional news media played a much larger role in 2004.  Now, traditional media (and thus big money) no longer controls the stream of information available to the voter.
