Song of the Bluegrass, Red State Voter

Senator Collins to Leader McConnell

as Sue saunters Senate halls: “So!  

On this witness thing…? You’ve got my vote. But…I want you to 
do me a favor tho’…”

Senator Romney to Senator Mitch

(Mitch be Mitt’s Senatorial bro):

“Re: ‘no witnesses,’ Mitch...? Count me in! But…I want you to 

do me a favor tho’…”

Lisa Murkowski to Leader McConnell:

“l’d not -- for the world! -- be your foe.

As to witnesses, let's us be friends. But…I want you to 

do me a favor tho’…”

Me…? I’d interrogate Leader McConnell:

“I’m hearing this phrase ‘quid pro quo.’

Now I’ve got one for you. Your sweet Senate gig…? Through! ‘Less you 

do me a favor tho’…”

Poetaster…?

Don’t you know it!
