Cousin Martin Andelman's 2008 Political Year-in-Review
(Sung to the tune of "T'was the Night Before Christmas".)
T’was the night before Christmas 2008,
And as I relaxed by the fire to contemplate,
What a remarkable year this past one had been,
So I poured a nice pinot, and dove right in.
When it started we all wondered just whom we’d be electing,
As to which one would win, there appeared no detecting.
But we knew one thing for sure, and for this we were happy,
Compared to Bush our next pres couldn’t be half as crappy.
Most thought Hillary would be our first presidential Mama,
Back then we weren’t quite sure that we’d all love Obama.
Of course, Edwards was running but we didn’t much care,
We were still talking about his fabulous hair.
There was Richardson too, and ole’ Tail Gunner Joe
And Kucinich whose wife looks like a very high priced ho.
