It's election time, I have to choose my candidate. My First (Second) sonnet
He Gets My Vote!

Romney and Obama, my what a pair,
Running for office, only one can win.
Each wants elected; but man, do we dare?
I’m so lost, with no clue where to begin.

Each with an agenda, who tells the truth?
Both speak with forked tongues, just to get some votes.
I’m sure I could choose, if I was a sleuth,
Does it really matter?  They’re both such goats.

Democrats, Republicans, who should lead?
I’ve no idea, not thrilled with either.
I have to wonder, just what do we need?
I think in the end I’ll vote for neither.

We need someone to lead us, not betray
My vote’s for Eastwood, he can make my day!
