The Dark Horses are Running
You guys go ahead and run, you can all be a hack, I’ll be quite comfortable NOT sharing my Super-PAC.
The Dark Horses Running

Dark Horses running
They were chomping at the bit
When the flood gates were opened
Out they all came lickety-split
The first to charge forward
Was Donald the Trump
Who thinks he will ace this race
And leave all the others in a dead heat slump
The Donald charged full speed ahead
Thinking the others slow in the head
With Cruz nipping at his hooves
The Donald’s ego is fed
Hillary will not make it out of the gate
The Donald said
As she whizzed right past, surging ahead
Then he felt the “Bern” as Sanders’s dust he ate
Chris Christie is yelling
“GET OUTTA MY WAY”
Or I will close all your bridges
And make you all pay
Jeb Bush says he is his brother’s keeper
At least of his policies
And he promises to take us to war
With his brother’s ideologies
Benghazi, Benghazi, the baby is still kicking
You can hear Fiorina say, even though
The Benghazi Commission is funding Rubio
And the kicking baby is proven to be a false video
Cruz pledges allegiance to his country of birth
He will give them all the land of America’s earth
For the Keystone XL pipeline to lay
Still questioning Obama’s birth-place today
The dark horses are down to two
The Donald is starting to spew
Look at Bill Clinton
If you think Hillary is for you
I demand Hillary's e-mails made public
And show them to you, and Putin can have a peek too
When I am President,
I will tell the world what I think of her and what I think of YOU!
What Cruz thinks about America
Huckabee, Santorum, Kasich, Pataki and Paul
All running neck and neck next to last place
Hoping to be in this race for the long haul
Jindal can’t keep up the pace as he dropped out of the race
Perry is out of the running
Unable to continue the pace
As Walker is scratched for
His Super-PAC sake
One dark horse will stagger across the finish line?
Drunk on the power of leaving the others behind.
The Race Is On
Breast fed, then golden spoon fed, possibly until the age of seven
Exquisite food, exotic feast, yo mama, sweet heaven
Private school, military no less, Vietnam, no way Jose
Deferred while planning Trump Tower, olay
Married first time, ditched her when she turned thirty
Children born, handsome son and a daughter, kinda pretty
Married again two months after child was born
Ditched her for a younger babe who was foreign
That's life, that's what people say

I guess they refused to be groomed like a piece of clay
Back on his feet, feeling like a king
Running the race for the white house, dismissing both the right and left wing
It's as if he's saying, " I'm gonna roll myself in a big ole ball and fly
All you little people BORING, so sad all you do is cry
The vets must surely love the Don
His millionaire friends gave millions for their loving care. Is it a con?

Early voting starts next week Tuesday. As you know, I pretty sure Putin will reinstall Trump in the presidency because Trump has been a literal dream come true for Putin. But we must all go out and vote just the same in case they bother to count them.
A judge has overruled our governor regarding the drop-off boxes for mail-in votes, but I plan to go in person. You know that the governor ordered that there be only one drop-off box in every county, right? Anything to discourage voting.
The dark horse in this election (IMHO) is Trump. Dark as in evil. I won't believe Trump really has Covid-19 unless he dies from it. Not wishing bad things on him, but sometimes they happen anyway. I hope he loses and is gone soon, but beyond that he can live a long and healthy life -- maybe in prison where you or I would be if we had done all the crimes he has.

Hope you and Walter are staying healthy and safe from the virus that seems to be ballooning again. Blessings, dear friend . . .

Turns out Bloomberg didn't last very long, nor did his promise to continue running ads less than flattering to Trump even if he wasn't the Democratic nominee.
I guess the dark horse in this election will be the vice-presidential nominee for the Democrats as that is the only person yet to be named. Personally, I favor Tammy Duckworth.

Seems like Mike Bloomberg is the dark horse in this presidential race, so far at least. I've read his polls are rising and pretty quickly. He wouldn't be my first choice as he's basically a misogynist and a bit racist besides. I do like the ads he's running though and I appreciate his willingness to support whoever the Democratic candidate ends up being even if it isn't Bloomberg.
Hope all is well with you. Blessings, dear friend . . .

Several states are refusing to put Republican opposition (to Trump) candidates on their ballots. The corruption in our government is unbridled, and so bad that it will be a wonder if the government of this country will still be in existence as we have known it, at the end of 4 more years.

Some of the Democrats that were initially running for president have dropped out. Having 20 some people running all at once seemed silly to me. None of them got much attention as a result.
I hope there's a dark horse or 2 on the GOP side. Trump might be dumped if a strong opponent gets into the Republican primary.
Hope all is well with you. Blessings dear friend . . .

It's so long until the election next year, almost a year and a half, that much can, and likely will change before then. Whether there will be any dark horses is something to think about, but for sure there are a lot of horses. Hopefully the Republicans will primary the president. Not likely, but it sure would be cool if they did.
Hope all is well with you dear friend. Blessings always . . .

Seems like the presidential election starts earlier and earlier every time. Still nearly 2 years before the next election and lots of people have already thrown their hats in the ring.
Since 'they' have proven that the Russians swayed the last election and basically installed Trump illegally, I think we should have another election right now, within the next 30 days, and Trump be forbidden to compete. Indeed, he needs to get free room and board for a while, maybe for life, for his part in helping the Russians defraud our country in the most recent election.
This government shutdown is unbelievable. Perhaps a mental institution would be the best place for Trump. All I know for sure is that we need to get him out of office and away from anything and anywhere he can continue to damage/destroy this country.
I've read that some people believe the general public should start having demonstrations, demanding Trump's removal. I wonder if that will come to fruition before this whole debacle is resolved . . .

Blessings dear friend. Take care.
