This election is older than Elroy. And what a dog and pony show. I take that back - dogs and ponies behave better than both of the candidates. One makes things up. The other lies. One is sexist. The other deletes things. Many people say they don't like either candidate. But let's face it - one is going to win. And the winner gets the Best in Show ribbon, even though they may or may not be the best example of the breed.
People also say, "is this the BEST America could do"? Honestly, I should have kept my name on the ticket. But really who would want the job? Half the time, people don't like you. They complain no matter what you do. And after 4 years (or 8!) you look awful. More grey. Lots of wrinkles. You look like a Shar Pei by the end of your term.
You need a really tough skin to have that job. I'm too sensitive. Not to mention the fact that my life already includes too many photos. And I'm not much of a debater. Frodo is the fast talker in this house.
When it comes down to it, you could flip a coin to make your choice. Or, perhaps select the candidate who has a dog. Seems like a reasonable way to do it - whoever owns a dog can't be ALL bad.
Anyway, Happy Birthday Hillary. Bet I know what you'll be wishing for when you blow out those candles!
