He did state his reasons a few posts after in this thread.

There once was a guy named Henry, Who told everyone "VOTE FOR ME!!!" Little did he know, (and this ruined him so) That he should give reasons. YIPEE!!! Some of these election posts are quite dumb, say something other than slandering the other candidates. And my limerick rocks =P I like how you slandered in the very post in which you cried slander.

There once was a guy named Henry, Who told everyone "VOTE FOR ME!!!" um i'd really hate to burst your bubble but your lymrics really don't rock. like at all. your second line is WAY akward because even though you have kind of the right number of syllables, your meter is off and therefore the wrong syllables get stressed. so in other words, there once was a member named tsear whos poems sucked. with a tear in my eye i did jab yes, a mighty hard stab a pen so i woudn't ever have to read that crap ever again.

In my not-so-humble opinion, neither of your limericks rock.

That's just a tad hypocritical, no? (sp?) Peace Henry, we don't need a flamewar.

i never said mine was any good. i don't like poetry and therefore am not very good at writing it. i was just hoping it to be good enough to get my point across. i'm confused. why is henry's statement hypocritical?

wait i'm still confused. how is that hypocritical? i get what you're saying, but it's not hypocritical. www.dictionary.com defines hypocritical as 1. Characterized by hypocrisy 2. Being a hypocrite okay that wasn't much help. they define hypocracy as The practice of professing beliefs, feelings, or virtues that one does not hold or possess; falseness. so if henry were to write bad poetry and then say that his poems were any good then he would be hypocritical. unless you want to get into the argument about it's his own opinion ect. ect. BUT not being good at something and telling someone else that they suck isn't really being hypocritical. like if i were to watch someone figure skate and say that they aren't any good, when i'm not any good to begin with myself, then that's not being hypocritical. wait! maybe you meant to say hypercritical! 1. Over critical; unreasonably or unjustly critical (from webster's) yeah, now it makes sence.

....
*blink*
So...As someone who isn't running (what a rarity)...
I think that was sort of interesting. Is there a reason there's a flame war running?
*sigh* I guess people are just very strange when elections come around. No wonder I don't want to turn 18...those canidates are just given MORE power and mostly exactly the same... *sigh*
QUIT PUTTING EACH OTHER DOWN! And that goes for all of you.

no he is being hypocritical because he inferred that KK had written bad poetry, and yet, who is he to judge others poetry when he does not write all that good poetry (or at least hasnt in the example above.... or any other for that matter).

Well, he himself never actually admitted to having good poetry...therefore, he is not a hypocrite.
