The Circus is Coming, the Circus is Coming!

The 2016 presidential hopefuls in full election regalia.
Things are going downhill fast for the Democrats. Unless they pull someone out of that hat where they got Obama last time, our next president will be one of these eager Republican wannabes who are crawling out of the woodwork and flying to their day in the sun faster than the ladybugs in my house that, cooped up all winter, are now excitedly zooming out any open door or window. Just today, two new clown noses were thrown into the ring, and word is there are more to come later this week.

Meanwhile, back at her $2.85 million mansion (just one of her mansions remember) on Embassy Row in Washington, poor Hillary sits, and from the looks of her lately she's got a bag of Fritos on her lap. Her luxurious 5,152 square foot home has four bedrooms and seven bathrooms. Again with all the bathrooms; Chelsea's Manhattan apartment has five and a half of them! What's up with that; are they a family of binge-purgers? (Bill has been looking awfully thin of late.)

Admit it: lying, scheming Hillary looks even worse next to some of these Republicans, each of whom has more to offer. Dr. Ben Carson is waaaaay blacker, Carly Fiorina is a ton better-looking, Jeb Bush is much more ethical (and has a Latino wife!), and Marco Rubio, rumored to be joining the cast, obviously has her beat in the ethnicity department, not to mention she's old enough to be his mother. Mike Huckabee has a powerful and fervent religious nut base, and Chris Christie is even fatter than Hillary, just in case her hidden agenda is to go for the dumpy, frumpy matron vote, which is no small constituency these days, let's be honest.

All in all it's shaping up to be quite a circus for the rest of us to watch. Should be a good time!
