Not from Obama or McCain, but:

I want politicians to stop leaving robot voice-mails for me and to stop calling my house every five minutes. I want to be done seeing political ads on TV and lawn signs on lawns. I want the news to go back to telling me about something — anything — less annoying than the political campaign … a return to reporting on the latest multiple homicides would do nicely, thank you very much. I want friends I mostly like to stop talking about politics, so I can go back to mostly liking them again. I want politics to stop being the center of existence.
