Election Clean Up

The election is over. It's been almost a week since so few voted in the midterm elections.

Political left-over campaign signs are everywhere in my area. Where are the volunteers that put them out to pick them up? It seems to me that the candidates who won and those who lost should require their supporters to pick up the political trash left behind.

In many ways the poster detritus is indicative of many politician promises. Empty words pollute the electorate mind with false hopes and then leave the expectations on the side of the promise road.

Do I sound a little callous? Granted. I am still hoping for a return to the old days when Democrats and Republicans were civil to each other. They socialized. They ate and drank together and then argued politically. They found ways to compromise for the greater good.

Anyway, please pick up your damn signs.
