Strong answer

If you ask me, the candidate
is an anti-business kook!

He's the kind of...you know
the real heroes? The real
American heroes?

Yeah! You know! The
real persons, women
and men who - look,

these are the folks
who put it on the line
out there, baby. He thinks

they're the problem.

He thinks he's the solution.
If you ask me, what's he
running for? Senator?
Yeah, State. That's worse.
The lower you are, the
closer you are to the people
and the more damage you
can do in-close, where
real jobs and homes
are. I'd rather have
him in the white

house frankly, surrounded
by sycophants, disconnected
from everything and told
rumors! A State Senator

is the absolute worst
place for a sicko like
that taking positions
on our children, on our
schools - on gun nuts! An
anti-woman, ant-man, anti-
human anti-religious wait
okay is he? Probably goes
to one extreme or another,
playing it damn close to
the vest 'til he gets in.

Playing both sides for a
lose-lose win. A demagogue
tapping the public vein for
whatever drugs he can suck
Dracula-style - our loss, his
gain, high on popular blood
borne pathogens carrying who
knows what over the finish line
for a touchdown! Law! Law! Bad
law, probably - scoring deep in
the peoples' end zone for future
travesties of injustice, cops forced
to police such a decision-maker
like that, who'd vote for this clown
to be up in there pulling the switches
that rule fates blindfolded, seeking
to game the opinion polls only to

pervert the public will? We're talking
about a man here - if you or he can

only identify as such! - whose
opinions on freedom I wouldn't
even die to hear! Let alone have
to live by, towing some crooked
line of what he voted by. You get

a guy like that, he could help steer
our whole part of the country
right into and over a pothole. He
- what did you say his name

was? Yeah.

That guy. He sucks, and if I voted
for him I'd consider myself a loser,
but that's my opinion. Oh you like
him huh? Well, let's not shake hands,

but agree to shake our heads squinting
and mumbling in disbelief and disgust
at each other

for once.

Reasonable people can agree to disagree,
but that guy is a menace whose supporters
should get lost on the way to the polls! Shoot
him right in the foot on election day, let

him limp the last lap to glory,
if he's got any in him. Let

the people decide what kind
of clown this guy is, I say.
