THE CRAVEN, A Halloween Trick-or-Treat, With Apologies to Edgar Allen Poe

"Okay, so Halloween was yesterday, but I was really busy yesterday, as those with children often are. I think the day after Halloween should be Adult Halloween, the day on which we eat the children's candy. And, so I now present to you, this political trick-or-treat meant for grown-ups on O'Hallows Eve. With my most sincere apologies to Mr. Poe."
