The news out
of Maine makes you want to shake your head in dismay
Once again
the politics of mud seems to be the only issues on display
The Blue
candidate for governor was using a video with lyrics from the King of Maine
That extols
Red Senator Susan Collins giving brain
Maine and
brain rhyme which is one explanation for the choice of lines
But in
popular culture it means oral sex maybe the words chosen by design
Reds are outraged;
Blues claim innocence and the meaning they did not know
Both sides
slinging mud while issue discussion is not part of the political show
If this poet
were a voter in Maine he would be appalled
There have
to be issues meriting debate this fall
Apologize to
Ms. Collins for the lyrics and let the issues take center stage
No wonder
the when it comes to politicians we feel nothing but disgust and rage.
