The Minnesota Farm Woman

Oh, political candidates, How Can I Miss You When You Won’t Go Away? This year has been the worst year ever with all the arguing, name-calling, and attempts to shame each other. I have always been Stuck in the Middle With You, meaning that I lean a little to the right of the left and a little to the left of the right. Call me Crazy, but I have, in my lifetime, voted for both the blue and the red. This year, I Can’t Make Up My Mind. I’m between The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. I know it seems like The Impossible Dream in America, but I am Wishin’ and Hopin’ that the politicians will soon stop all their Yakety Yak. I know I’m not All By Myself in thinking that There’s a Screw Loose Somewhere. Enough is Enough, politicians! Frankly, I don’t trust any of you. You might think that Yonder Comes a Sucker, but here in America the Beautiful, our Big Ol’ Goofy World, we know it is all about the Money when it comes to politics. It is Money for Nothing, though, unless all of you stop acting like The Neighborhood Bully and Give Peace a Chance. Not only peace for one another, but Let There Be Peace On Earth, too. If you worked as hard at that as you do digging up dirt on each other, there would be no more War. If life were Magic, and If I Only Had a Brain, I would give each of you A Spoonful of Sugar to sweeten you up, wave my wand, and shout Bibbidy Bobbidy Boo as we near The Final Countdown. To hear The Sounds of Silence at last would make me The Happiest Girl in the Whole USA. Just Imagine the peace and quiet in that wonderful place Over the Rainbow. Hallelujah! God Bless America! Forever and Ever, Amen.
