Elections American Style

Thankfully, another American election cycle has come and went, Providing folks across the land their opportunity to vent. For months, we've suffered a gamut of inane hullabaloo, Now, maybe the pundits will find more productive things to do! The politicos proposed various schemes and grandiose ideas. For our nation's ills they offered numerous panaceas. We've heard it all from no new taxes to fixing social security, Most of which will be destined for the bowels of obscurity! We voted to retain judges, for governors and county clerks, And bonds to increase taxes to improve the sewage works. We defined marriage as one-man, one-woman for each legislator. (Somehow, I thought that was determined eons ago by The Creator!) We watched on the television as pails of mud were tossed. Such political shenanigans upon the voters were not lost. When the elections ceased, campaigners vowed togetherness. How long the love-fest will last is anybody's guess! The people have spoken, to borrow the political cliche. Some folks are elated, others fraught with dismay. Despite all the hoopla, babble and circus atmosphere, Our election process guarantees the liberties all hold dear!
