I'm trying to fill out my ballot for the current election (which includes Presidential Primaries), and all I can say is that the local issues are more interesting --- and I can be more "hopeful" about them --- than anything on either the state or national venue.
I would have (albeit reluctantly) voted for The Newt as the Republican Presidential Candidate, until I learned he had been found guilty of "Jumping the Shark", and was no longer a viable candidate.
At the ARPC match yesterday, I asked The Hobo Brasser if he could tell me for whom he planned to vote, as the Republican Presidential Candidate. He told me .... but was unable to complete the discussion without reverting to the most foul anglo-saxon terminology. I think he may even have mentioned the word "D*m*cr*t" once. (I probably should not have said this; I hate to embarrass my friends.) (Oh, that's right, I don't, do I?)
What I'm thinking is that the ballot should include the category "ANYONE BUT ______" (name your choice, I know who my "Anyone But ____" choice would be on the Presidential election).
So what we're left with is Montrose's Toast:
Translated: "You pays your money and you takes your chances""He either fears his fate too much,
Or his desserts are small,
Who dares not put it to the touch,
To win or lose it all!"
