Gals from Northern 'Burbs came early.

Below the fold is a comment that was left at ACE of SPADES.

This is an awesome rewrite of a classic song.

24

The legend lives on from the Gray Lady on down
To the network they call “Fair and Balanced.”
The MSNBC, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of September turn gloomy.

With a load of delegates - 2,500 or more
Than the Barack Obama weighed empty
That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early

The ship was the pride of the Democrat side
Rising out of the machine in Chicago
As big ships go it beat out Team Hillary so
With a campaign and the Veep well seasoned.

Concluding some terms with a couple of special interest groups
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ships bell rang
McCain announced Sarah Palin.

The Kos and the Dish made a tattletale sound
Claiming that McCain was insane
First it was Trig, and then it was Bristol,
This would finish the old man off early.

Gustav came late and the GOP convention to wait
And bets were being taken when she would drop out
But when the Governor spoke to the assembled folk
The Dems were in the face of a hurricane Palin

When supper time came the old Veep came on deck
Saying I hear that life starts at conception
At 7PM and Intrade caved in
Biden said fellas it's been good to know ya.

Then Captain hit a shoal called "New Pennsylvania"
And the Dem ship and crew was in peril
And later that night when MacÂ’s polls went out of sight
Came the wreck of the Barack Obama.
