If you're into slapstick and pratfalls, the field of Republicans now seeking the presidential nomination is an ongoing source of amusement. If you were hoping for fresh ideas, humane policies and gravitas, this is the worst field in living memory, all aggressively pandering to an extreme wing of their party...
A Political Field
of Bad Dreams
Mitt's vision? No one can discern,
Herman's done things he just won't explain;
Newt smirks, Michelle babbles, Rick's bumbles appall,
While Santorum continues to out-right them all.
In a field changeable as the weather,
Changes here don't make things any better
