President-Elect Donald Trump

What is there to say?

I just never realized how mad the middle class

Must have been to vote for Trump, a total horse's ass.

Didn't understand how bad their lives have got to be

If they'd vote for someone as unqualified as he.

I cannot believe that they're all bigots - though there's some

And, though many lack degrees, that doesn't mean they're dumb.

Were they right that Washington, D.C. was broken? Yup.

System didn't work for them and so they blew it up.

For my fellow Clinton voters, still in states of shock,

Knowing Mitch McConnell said Republicans would block

Anything that Clinton tried, perhaps it's just as well...

Roll the dice and pray the country doesn't go to hell.

Dear Members of the Media; I'm Begging You...

With elections 2 years off, the race is underway;

Candidates are lining up.  I wish they'd go away.

Please don't give them airtime now.  Why cover them at all?

Who cares what they have to say - at least until next Fall?

We've just held elections.  Work is waiting to get done.

It's not news that Donald Trump's deciding if he'll run.

That's not journalism; it is gossiping, at best.

Members of the media, please give the race a rest.

Aren't there more important things the country needs to know?

Don't waste time reporting on their dog and pony show.

If you can't find things at home, there's plenty overseas.

Wait another year before you talk elections, please.

Unsolicited Advice for Scott Brown - Don't Do It

(Photo/BusinessInsider.com)

 Scott Brown is considering a Presidential run.

Doesn't seem to know that, as a Massachusetts' son,

National Republicans will always think that he

Is a closet liberal who doesn't drink the Tea.

Cruz and Paul and Bachmann are the kind of folks they'll choose.

I think I would reconsider were I in his shoes.

Brown should stick to Governor; at least he has a shot...

GOP's new nominee - post Romney? He does not.

Olympia Snowe - 2016

I'd vote for Olympia Snowe.

Republicans suffered a blow

When she chose to quit;

Became sick of it.

Found change in the Senate too slow.

Recently, she wrote a book.

I bought it and then had a look.

She says it's on us

To cut through the fuss

And put government on the hook.

Her argument's fair and well-spoken.

But I think that Congress is broken.

They're not above board.

The people ignored.

The background check issue's awoken

A frustrated public who sees

That, not just a slow-down, but freeze

Is now underway

In Congress today...

Won't fix it by just saying "Please."

Race for the White House - Hillary - 2016

Hillary at Wellesley is like Benedict in Rome;

On that lovely campus, Madame Secretary's home.

Wasn't too surprising that they're urging her to run.

In 4 years, after our current President is done,

I would love to see that too. She'd have my full support.

Something that she didn't have, I'm sorry to report.

Thought her choice of husband proved her judgment badly flawed

So, back then I chose, instead, to give Barack the nod.

On his Team of Rivals Mrs. Clinton's headed State;

Where I've gained a great deal of respect for her of late.

Thoughtful and articulate...  She's funny and she's smart.

Guess it's not my problem if her husband broke her heart

Sorry she's retiring but hoping that it means

She intends to use the time to work behind the scenes

Getting ready for a run for President, 'cause then

I'll be voting Hillary - despite her taste in men.
