Notes About The Poem

My belief is that Pence tried to stay above the fray but succummed to the idiocy of Kaine.

Kaine was not able to not interrupt.

The Vp Debate

The VP Debate
By Franklin Price
10/5/2016

The VP elects were on TV
As a debate it wasn't right
Was a farcical imitation 
Might as well have been a fight

Could have been a boxing match
With refereeing quite a botch
Many low blows being thrown
Not to the head but to the crotch 

So busy with the slandering
Never heard just where they stood
The only thing I say of note
“ did neither party any good”

Must admit we channel changed
And did not watch it all
We only watched a round or two
Then we made the only call

The worst of all the bad debates 
Wasn't hard to say a draw
This entire race for president 
Is the worst I ever saw

My English use is questionable
Might say it's even bad
But not as bad as this debate
Now that's off my chest; I'm glad
