Strained analogy of the week!

Our yards have a lot in common with the political landscape, and when the Associated Landscape Contractors of Colorado (alcc.com) offered these fall talking points, we couldn't resist sowing a little humor into them.
Yeah, humor. Here's a good line, though:
Weeds, like political ads, pop up over and over, leaving us with the desire to take a hoe and pummel them. . . .
