The Last Hurrah

St. Patrick's Day, Topeka, KS, many years ago.   Al is smiling, but inside he is sad.   Someone's just told him: we're glad to have you march in the parade, but no "Al for President" signs.  No politics in the parade.  We all looked younger then.   I don't know why he was worried about the signs.  There wasn't a single person in town who didn't know who he was and why he was there.
