Heh. I got this.

I voted for him. It was a real contrast to the other two candidates who set out boring, long statements listing stuff they've done.

Also voted for him. Didn't take himself too seriously, whereas the other two are no doubt using this to plump up their CVs before running for local council in about 5 years.

I was going to vote for him, but the end of the fourth line is assonance rather than true rhyme and that just won't do.

Still, he was immeasurably better than the first candidate, whose list of achievements included being elected class representative on the LPC. I mean, seriously, where do they find these people?!
