GOP 2012 BLUES

     The race is finally over

   The campaign's last reserve

  The democrats were rewarded

        The GOP got served

 

    They had a fighting chance

    Obama disappointed many

   Change that never happened

     Voters were getting angry

 

  What was the GOP'S big mistake

    Why did they finish so behind

    Who did they pick for president

  The whitest whitey they could find

 

    Ignored latinos gays and blacks

   Stalled when they should have run

Threatened to set back women's rights

         to eighteen sixty one

 

     Slung mud in every direction

  Said Obama was a socialist stooge

   The democrats were communists

     and there was a gay deludge

 

       And that crack about the 47

          burning in voters ears

      Amounted to a conformation

       of the GOP'S elitist sneers

 

      Pundits said the race was tight

     But it went the way it had to end

     The democrats had an advantage

        the GOP couldn't comprehend

 

        The voters cast their ballots

       and sent the GOP off to scurry

         cause they ran a dinosaur

             in the 21st century

I know it's a little sloppy. I'm in a hurry to go out and taste the rich smooth goodness of Obama country

You nailed it, Ric. I was forced again to cast another protest vote for a third party. At least Congress is still in stalemate where I like it. Elections over... they can all vote themselves another raise and go back to doing nothing. Ha!

Very well said!

thank you for reviewing GOP mic

Welll, I cpuld have words but then I coud not. I understan that I am about fourteen and a half years old and therefore have no say in how the elections went. I DO know that everyone got to vote, and everyone ha the right to form opinions. And just because my opinion may slightly differ from someone else's.. thats no reason to riot. I WILL say, however, that my county is strictly republicn and I am no different. If I had it my way, neither of those men would have ran. We need a fresh opinion, maybe a female opinion? And somebody who is going to do what he/she says he/she is.going to do.

neverthlesss, a fine.write as always

if that's what it takes to get Bill Clinton back in the white house sign me up! haha

[KAOlmsted]

...out of the mouths of babes; well said, Annabelle

[Annabelle Lee]

clinton...... not quite wher i was headed but a start

[Baby Ricochet]

She's got the political clout to clinch the nomination at the least. 2012 gop blues is a nonpartisan piece. I just stated what romney's campaign team did. They were encumbered with the bush legacy as well. Bill Clinton was the star of the democratic convention. Bush didn't even go to his party's convention. That's not good. A campaign. Not good at all.

Goddamn smart phone

[Annabelle Lee]

haha. those things were made by the devil. Well. in my opinon, a president to be should not be affiliating him or herself with one particular party. he or she.is going to b in charge of the united states.of america, not the republican or democratic party. i think that was a smart move on bush's part

[That_Guy]

haha brilliant! I voted for Obama, twice. I'm not a huge fan but compared to John McCain and Mitt Romney... I'm happy with my pick

[Baby Ricochet]

Thanks for reviewing bro.

[Tate Morgan]

Very good very good indeed.This is the best of you so far it speaks of relevancy it speaks to the heart The puritan pilgrims better run for the hills .God has as far as I am told not visited in a while so I doubt any relevancy should be placed in the pilgrim ways that the gop wants the 99 percent to swallow. I see you growing and it is illuminating and refreshing The work is good for the soul is it not?

[James William Dyer]

Yeah!!!!!!!! The G.O.P. can go the way of the dinosaur as far as I'm concerned.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you for reviewing GOP 2012 Blues James. Obama's far from perfect but when compared to Romney He's Abraham Lincoln

[Samuel Dickens]

Yep, that's pretty much what happened. The GOP needs a complete make-over if it's to survive.

[Baby Ricochet]

THank you for reviewing GOP 2012 Blues sam

[Marie]

Well, they should have had better candidates to choose from. I thought Romney had a better chance myself but he failed to communicate...
