I do not like election years
Too many promises hit my ears
Promises these folks just can't keep
Promises that they pile deep
The people that all want the job
Try to reach the common slob
They say that they are one of us
They fly on planes, we take the bus
They move their lips and they are lying
We hear their junk and we are sighing
When elected and told what they said
They say they're misinterpreted
The times have changed, they stay the same
Only difference is in the name
But they will say, just wait and see
This is our democracy

The more things change the more they stay the same. That sure seems to hold true when it comes to politics. Nice poem, Wixy. :)

But if Newt were a write in,
I think I just might.
