There’s a rainbow hidden in every rainstorm.

I don’t follow politics. I can regurgitate the names of three of the people in the running this year because my brother follows it and has to vent any time we get together.
I accept politicians for what they are. I know that you can’t believe a solitary word that falls out of their mouth. What disgusts me about the whole business is the gullibility of Joe Citizen.
That being said, tonight I found an upside to this ridiculous parade that we have to sit through every four years, providing nobody gets shot:
The corporate and private entities that gave an assload of cash to the wrong pony loses big. I never stopped to think about this. Imagine billions of dollars worth of pre-paid bribes just being tossed out the window. Do these people get IOU’s for future shady business deals in the event that the person is elected at a later date?
To: KBR
IOU One contract at 40 times the actual value for an indefinite period after my election*.
*If I am never elected, ticket holder is eligible for one(1) free hotdog at Joe’s House of Weiners.
And here I thought that there wasn’t a single positive aspect to an election year.
