For that matter, why are elections run by partisan officials appointed by the governors in exchange for political service to them?

Columbus — Georgia Republican Party chairwoman Sue Everhart said Saturday that the party's presumed presidential nominee has a lot in common with Jesus Christ.
"John McCain is kind of like Jesus Christ on the cross," Everhart said. "He never denounced God, either."
Everhart was praising McCain for never denouncing the United States while he was being tortured as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.
"I'm not trying to compare John McCain to Jesus Christ, I'm looking at the pain that was there," she said.
Yes, and Jesus lost his election too, to Barabbas.

But your quote from the story was about McCain not Obama who's already been dubbed the Messiah. Try again.
To be fair, nobody from the higher-ups of the Democratic Party have dubbed nor compared Obama to Christ. And well, a higher up from the GOP has compared McCain to Christ. The people "dubbing" Obama as the Messiah are actually from the GOP, much like yourself.

Louis Farrakhan did, which is comforting. And there's this gem:
From Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) on the House floor:
Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, it’s a bit confusing sometimes to listen to the rhetoric. The Republicans have had the Presidency now for nearly 8 years, and they have had the majority in this House since 1994, I think. I submit to you, Mr. Speaker, that the parties have differences, but if you want change, you want the Democratic Party. BARACK OBAMA was a community organizer like Jesus, whom our minister prayed about. Pontius Pilate was a Governor.
Not only is Obama now Jesus, Palin is a Jesus-killer. Yay!
