Dear Jill

When people said that Ruth should go, I argued they were wrong. Today, of course, we sadly know She stuck around too long. Unfortunately, now it seems We’re destined to repeat Mistakes to ruin all our dreams And knock us off our feet. Dear Jill, your husband’s done his best To bring this country back, But nothing seems to have suppressed Each worrying attack. No matter if he has the strength And gumption to go on, Opponents will seek any length To guarantee he’s gone. Perception’s power overrules Reality, and so, Before democracy unspools, Let’s save the status quo. Your influence is needed now For Joe must step aside And such a move might just allow The cause to stem the tide.

oh I learned something new. I had no idea his wife's name was Jill. if his name were Jack, we could have him rolling down a hill! I cannot fathom why he is running again or why the Democrats don't find a good candidate for us to choose from. Kennedy wanted to challenge Joe, but Joe refused and Kennedy is now on the Independent ballot, so he has lost already, sadly
