A Ditty on Newt Gingrich: The Apogee of a Would-be Nominee

May 3, 2012 · By Karen Dolan

We'll carry on with Barack and Mitt, but we lament that you called it quits.

Newt assured us:

I Will be the Nominee
I Will beat Mitt Rominee
I Will create a Moon Colony
I am not full of Baloney

Fortunately only the last is true
But losing you still makes us blue
We’ll miss having you to tease
We’ll miss our jokes about Tiffany’s

We'll carry on with Barack and Mitt
But we lament that you called it quits
