That would explain some things then. When I bought the game I was expecting an election simulation and not just a game. I'll have to change my expectations accordingly. It's not that I'm not enjoying the game...I was just expecting more going in. Probably that wasn't fair to you guys.
Had a chance to chat with this guy nice. Very nice guy and seemed to have a positive slant on the game. Should write a good article for you guys.
As I'm looking at my notes of issues with the game, I read a post saying this was "a fun game" and not "intended to be an election simulator." Going back over my notes things that to me are major issues for a simulation (like no Washington DC) can be overlooked if this is just supposed to be a fun game.

Wal*Mart is where I bought the game too ... and then came to this site and found out that I didn't have a chance to buy the whole game...very disappointing. Had I known the retail version didn't have all the features I would have downloaded the game. Instead, I saw the box and was happy it was out and snagged it. Now I find I can't download the part available only to online purchases yet and I can't get the patch because again I didn't order online
