The great Mark Halperin posted a lot about the midterms, suggesting a red tsunami. I make no predictions but in case he's right and the team Red does win... (borrowing some of Halperin's evocative phrases).
Even through the sense-blinding haze we saw
that trio of devils - inflation, crime, Brandon
Wiping the mealtickets of the business-as-usuals
While patriots huddled near dropboxes and post offices.
Around their doorframes Blues affixed their masking tape
Tried their end-arounds and reverses
Charged the Trumpian cape to exhaustion
While old hoarse-throats echoed “Defund the Police!”
And donkey souls were washed ashore.
Roiling waters now threaten cheats
Blue homes built fat with mules and Zuckerbucks
Stirring a sleepy red polis to their senses
Sending out candidates athirst for equity.
From Rhode Island to Seattle,
the Blues sing the blues:
Where have you gone, Jimmy Comey?
The blue eyes turn their lonely orbs to you
Woo, woo, woo
What’s that you say, Mrs Oprah?
Joltin’ James has left and gone away...
