The Transparent Candidate

He deserved all our votes and said why,
But attention was drawn to his fly;
He'd left it unzipped,
So one voter quipped,
"If you can't manage that, then goodbye."

Point well-taken, David. On the other hand, what good, decent man has not found himself in that situation at one time or another?
