Romney Romney Romney
you were there
you were there
on the TV
facing Obama
Republicans were
none too excited
but obligated
trying desperately
to make you stand out
and blend in
Democrats were
terrified of this
old white guy
with the religion
That Must Not Be Named
(the further left
was occupied
this time behind
their own walls
sobbing)
November 6th
came and went
Obama won
with room to spare
then suddenly Romney
you were not anywhere
anywhere
but
next month you'll be
at the Conservative Political Action Conference
you say
okay
wait
where?
