PRIMARY UPDATE
or, MORE COLE PORTER
(AND, NO, YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR IT)

Memo to: Dr. Dean

From: Democratic Voters

(ahem. mi mi mi mi mi)

It was just one of those things,
Just one of those crazy flings,
You were one of those men,
Who pulled the heartstrings...
Just one of those things.

We bought into all the hype,
We thought, maybe, the time was ripe;
A trip to DC
On primary wings...
Just one of those things.

If we thought a bit
'Bout the end of it,
Before we started pledging our vote;
We'd have been aware,
That our love affair,
And Dubuque
Both were remote.

So... goodbye, Doc, and I'll bet
You wish you were in the Senate,
It was great fun...
But it was just one...
Of those things.

UPDATED ALTERNATE (AND BETTER) FINAL VERSE, 'CAUSE YOU DID ASK FOR IT:

So... goodbye, Doc, and sweet dreams,
Here's hoping you regret those screams;
It was a great show,
But it was so...
One of those things.

(Coming next week: the next loser. Or something.)

(The big surprise: I know Gershwin, too!)
