First there was dopey,
Perhaps named because of his ability
To contradict himself on ever turn.
Will he ever learn?
(Some say a Doctor his mistakes does bury
Perhaps this one will do as well in a hurry.)
Then came Sadey
That's sad and a long ee
Whose face and peculiar hat indicated
Religious persuasion and Israel supported.
Not even his past running mate
Is willing to share his losing fate.
A Hoosier; named for I know not what
But votes this one just ain't got.
Running for office is so much fun
Matters not if voters share in the pun.
Clark by name and wrapped in military might
Yet on issues, he can't seem to get it right.
What he stands for is less a problem
Than what he believes at the moment.
A Missouri gambler bold.
Giving up his seat in Congress we are told.
Seeking election to highest office fame
Sad; no one can recall his name.
A Braun, but not black
Or is it the reverse.
Is this the best that Chicago land can offer
From the Daley to Jackson to Braun -- Pew!
To this New Yark street fighter, much maligned
The glory is in the attention gained
Color makes no difference, long as it's black
He retreats never, always on the attack.
Under the shadow of a teddy bear
Waits his time for the number one chair
.
Who is this stranger from Mass
Seventeen years in Congress, alas.
Florida Senator that knows not
So in his book he does often jot.
An Edwards by name
From the South it's a shame.
Lawyers in his pocket abound
Or is it the other way around.
The princess, with eyes open, she sleeps
Like Caeser, she fears that some Bruitus will creep
Crimes of pashion and fashion abound
Getting elected is all that counts to this female hound.
A poison apple was her due
From her past partner it's true.
With others he shared the bed in the People's house
True forgiveness. The role of a political spouse.
Like the fabled princess of old
She awaits the day when she will be so bold
To take the reigns of the chariot
And with her minions rush to claim their lot.
Will a kiss awaken her from the self imposed sleep?
Or for four more years in sombulance keep.
She awaits a draft from the party chief
Then out of the way, the dwarfs they sweep.
There will come the day
When she will have her sway
And the dwarfs will have long past
From the scene, a second rate cast.
The demo troika; Ted, Bill and Mac
Will they choose to attack
And preserve for ought-eight
Her place on the presidential slate?
Awaken the electorate
From something they ate
Then vote to support her cause
Of left-leaning rights without pause.
Casting a vote for this one of a communistic hue.
God help the "Red, White and Blue."
Worm castings at least have value.
