Artist picture
George Potor and Joe DeCristopher both were raised in New Jersey in the 1950's and 60's, and schooled and settled in Pennsylvania, but they didn't meet until late 1979. Though they played occasionally as a duo, their first excursion as a band was with the ppits, a motley crew of seven (and sometimes more), full of political irreverence and fun. The ppits morphed into a quintet, Veto and the Hitmen, which like the ppits, performed twice on WVIA's Homegrown Music with a bundle of original tunes, mostly by George, by George. Over the last few years, George and Joe, with Rick Totten, formed Good Without One, the drummerless rock trio fueled by the retrograde administration of Cheney and W, spawning such gems as "Less Scratch, More Itch", "The Ballad of W, M.D. (Ducking Like a Quack)", "Above the Law", "Things Could Get Worse", and "The Gitmo Swing." The winds of change continue to blow, and George and Joe continue to collaborate, sometimes as a duo, sometimes with the help of others. Happily, Fred Strickland has come onboard with his 5-string bass, vocals & songwriting. They look forward to introducing new tunes, some political (George's "Low Infaux Voter", Joe's "Subprime Blues" and Fred's "Fox U"), some not, like the rocking "Inis Mor", named for the island off the coast of Ireland that George visited in the summer of 2008.

Story behind the song
As the US Presidential Campaign slogs on, both parties mention their desire to reach out to what they euphemistically call the "low info voter." The level of discourse required to reach such folks has got to drive campaigning to the lowest of the low. Once again, DePotorhead utilized its patented Email-A-Track Recording System.
Lyrics
1 All the talk was the breaking news; Finally gathered the last of the clues, Found some folks, they were in plain sight; They gave 'em a name an' their own website. What they (It really doesn't interest me) Don't know (It really doesn't interest me) Helps them (It really doesn't interest me) Choose the President CHORUS: Low, low, low infaux (3x) Voter, voter 2 Make a list of shiny things Dangle them with shiny string Dress 'em up, comb their hair, Show their pictures everywhere Who would (It really doesn't interest me) Notice (It really doesn't interest me) Who could (It really doesn't interest me) Choose the President CHORUS 3 Take your pick, make your choice Ye Citizens, let's hear your lovely voice A change is a-comin' across the land Just ignore what ya don't understand Thirty (It really doesn't interest me) Percent (It really doesn't interest me) Blindly (It really doesnt interest me) Choose the President CHORUS
