 OBAMA => PLEASE EXIT to the LOW ROAD! Rated:

 Extrordinary political punditry compressed into a mere 5-syllables per line poem!

OBAMA: TAKE THIS LAST EXIT to the LOW ROAD!

Danger  [#1465347]
suspension bridge

As Palin just grins
Obama’s lead thins
It’s media spins
Determines who wins
Millions short-sighted
Quickly sound bite-ed
From the rich right-wing
A fresh think-tank zing
With visceral sting
Sharp barbs they do fling
To STICK in our minds.

For swing votes you fought
The lesson's been taught
The air time’s all bought.
So Blog them for naught.
They’ll never be caught.
By RATIONAL thought.

New swift-boaters tote
A thick loser’s coat.
They've vaulted the moat.
Their grip's on your throat.
You'll soon be the goat.
They wrap you in lies
Unwelcomed disguise.
Dilutes your replies.
Embrace sure demise.
Fresh stink attracts flies.
So cut down to size.
STUCK on the High Road.

Where you can’t fight back
No counter attack?
What is it you lack?
Got spine in your back?
No punches to trade?
Earns you a bad grade
Leads to a fast fade.
Their plans are well laid
A come back they’ve made.
You slid Right and prayed.
STALLED on the High Road

Nice guys finish last!
You’re sinking so fast.
The pall has been cast.
Your ship’s lost its mast.
Do learn from the past.
The cost will be vast!
Your caravan’s crashed
LOSS on the High Road!

It’s ONLY the SPIN,
That leads to a WIN,
Best Zingers and Lies:
Will get you the prize.
Respond to their goad
Depart the High Road
Momentum has slowed
You’re garden’s been mowed
CRASHED on the High Road

Who dictates this game?
Where rules be so lame.
Use YOUR bigger flame
To scorch, make them tame.
Re-target your aim
TRASH grumpy McSame -
Your lead you'll reclaim.
Make liars feel shame:
Shrewed Carribou Dame!
No winner seeks blame
WIN from the LOW ROAD!
