Overexposed…


Coming up next week is the NJ election,


Would be nice to elect someone of perfection,


But from looking at the candidates,


I can disavow that particular predilection…


 


The more I do see the signs for the candidates,


They seem to almost chase me off,


I could almost think losing will be their fate,


Better for them to enter the race late…


 


I hate to admit,


For some will have a fit,


I do express my views as you do herein read,


But am unable to vote,


My background has had many a misdeed…

Hey Ed, this is Ray Lewis, Ravens linebacker. Grady is sitting right beside me. I don't usually have time to comment but no team can be as perfect as your poeming, nice boat on your bio. Do me a favor when you're out on the water having fun, watchout for the big black yacht with a black bird on it, hehe crunch, oops we didn't see the big guy in the little boat hehehe

I always used to enjoy voting....for the Greenies, or Garden Party, whatever radicles were about at the time, sadly they have swallowed up all the independants, and it's no fun anymore. State elections here are nothing more than a Tea Party, as this is beaurocrat capitol lol.
Onya ED, No you're not missing a thang, they rig the electorates anyway.

New Jersey. One thing you guys have that you can crow about, you are not the most corrupt state in the union, Louisiana is. Sorry about the non-voting thing, it gives you a legitimate reason to bitch. In answer to Sue? Some things just have to carry penalties. Hug Rufuz and don't sweat it. Life is what it is.

i've never understood taking a felon's right to vote, committing a crime doesn't take away your citizenship so you have a right to some say about it. but who listens to me

That I hope soon to be extinct dinosaur, our government, is bludgeoned and beaten as thoroughly as the freedom of the law lets me without jail time.
