South Carolina  
goes for Obama, bigtime!  
Hillary, Bill fume.

Caroline and her  
Uncle Ted endorse Barack -  
Camelot’s new king?

Giuliani put all  
of his chips on Florida;  
maybe not smart move.

McCain, Romney slug  
it out - GOP to choose  
old coot, empty suit?

Bitchy Hillary  
Mrs. Billary Clinton  
Is she too strident?

Barack Obama  
Dignified and not too black  
Will he be chosen?

Rudy is finished.  
Thank heaven for that. Could he  
Second-seat timber?

McCain is in first.  
Romney’s golden specs saw wrong  
Just god’s little joke?

Super Tuesday’s here!  
Will anyone clinch a nom?  
I sort of hope not.

Ohio’s March 4th  
primary is usually  
too late - not this year?
