Original Political Analysis. Serious articles sprinkled with humor.

Joe said something really bad
we, the media, are so very glad
we can spin a new wonderful show
nurture a story and make it grow

If a candidate is connected to Joe
this will be a big political blow
so let's find how to connect the two
there is a big scandal to brew

Now Joe, the candidate must renounce
if he wants his polls numbers to bounce
keep his distance from words gone bad
for voters can be really really mad

We will ask voters what they think
would the candidate simply sink
was denouncing good enough
or just more of the usual bluff

Next the experts we will interview
with our best on TV analysts crew
those large egos we always flaunt
tell us - what voters really want

We'll send our experts to do a poll
try to dig into the voters soul
what did this grand fiasco mean
did the candidate come out clean

And get the pundit once again
superficially dig his brain
pretend this is the real thing
after all, we are the media king

Nothing else is left to debate
the economy or real estate
not foreign affairs or the Iraq war
or how health care costs are going to soar

We dictate what's the real news
no wonder it is so hard to choose
on candidates we put all the blame
aren't elections a wonderful game?
