Mome, mome on the range,
Where the dad antelopes play,
Where seldom is herd,
A misspeld word ...

I saw another young “mome” yesterday at the car wash dressed in a tank top, shorts and open-toed sandals. It was 18 degrees and blowing snow outside. He was there in the bay as I waited next in line, spraying the salt and slush off of his 2002 Cooper Mini with an old Obama campaign logo sticker on the back window. When he was done and gone, I pulled in and noticed that he had left three quarters sitting on the ledge where you put the coins in. Thanks, mome!

A mome is someone who voted for obama in 2008 at age 18, voted for him again in 2012, and is getting ready to ENTHUSIASTICALLY campaign for and vote for Hillary this year!!!!

From age 18 to age 26, he or she has learned NOTHING!!!!

Here’s a short MEMO to a MOME
Who, at 30, still lives in MOM’s homE
Either basement or attic
Blindly votes democratic
Trying desperately to publish a pome

There is a mome on the loose on trump threads. I am not a trumpkin, but putting out a rumor of mental illness is just MOME-ish!

My mom died last year at nearly 101. Although I often clashed with her over the years, mom was no mome!

As I sit at work, reviewing local events here in Massatwoschitts, I wonder why they haven’t renamed the capital on Beacon Hill in Boston to “the Mome Dome”.

It seems most appropriate.

Sadly, I fear that the mome that chose to vote for “the one”, two times (or more) are just as anxious to vote for sHrillary.

Cruz is getting ready to accuse Trump of being an extroverted thespian from New York City.

which is all true, by the way.
