					<description><![CDATA[The 2016 Presidential election feels a Hispanic soap opera mixed with a Asian talk show.  It&#8217;s buck wild. The Republican race has a bunch of rabid Tea-Partiers with a man I shall not name (he gets enough attention as it is) leading the Bizarro bunch.  The Democratic race is just as crazy.

These beers (Sah&#8217;tea and La Meule) are far from mediocrity, but that&#8217;s the tagline of my spiel, so I&#8217;m sticking with it.
