   Mitt, the twitt,
   Is a nit wit.
   Presidentially not fit
   To do his bit.
   Not a hit,
   but a git
   with no wit
   is our Mr. Mitt...
   
   Answer only in rhyming poetry... Test your skill!

      Mittens rode in to town
      onlookers observed the clown
      no statesman was he as he ridiculed me
      but that didn't bring me down
      As he stepped off the very small plane
      and looked all around with disdain
      folks pointed and jeered 'he really is weird'
      but the show will go on all the same

            No, Sophia, yours was poetry, mine became a ditty, what a pity, perhaps I should blame Mitty.

            Hey GMWilliams...
            
            You're supposed to respond in rhyme
            Even thought it takes some time
            To say political things
            About tyrants and kings
            And it doesn't cost a dime!

      Mitt and Barry went to town,
      Ridin' on a pony.
      Yankee Doodle, looking on,
      Said 'Man, that pair is Phoney.'
      
      One is rich, we don't want that,
      The other's rich indeed.
      One hides his taxes under his hat
      The other his whole history.

   Obama wears a frown
   
   The sad smile of a pathetic clown
   
   Insisting he is right
   
   Prepared to compel us with his might
   
   A narcissist with a bloodlust calling
   
   No remorse for those that have fallen!

      Umm. I'd rewrite the last line to say, "No remorse for those who are falling."
      
      But otherwise, good!

            Oh, sorry, I didn't get that. I interpreted it to mean the economic fall out - and it rhymed better!

      About Bain, he lied,
      Tax? he defied,
      In London, he tried,
      In 2012, he's denied.

      Unless asked about tax
      when i refuse to give max
      but who gives a **** about facts
      not i.
      They say dressage is for the elite
      but i swear i do not eat meat
      no dog will you find on my roof
      that youtube image was spoof
      i can turn this country around
      you just have to give me some ground
      an asset stripper, not i
      i'm just a regular guy.... :

   Poetry on HP? Well, I'll be damned!
   
   I though poetry was to be banned!
   
   Don't let Matthew Kirk see this thread --
   
   If you're rhyming words he will have your head!
   
   That's how it is with Matthew Kirk --
   
   He's far above poetry. Or perhaps he's just a... hubber who hates poetry.

      Everyone has a chance to opine
      
      sounding like a bovine
      
      with thoughts in their head
      
      need not be said
      
      for their opinions are like a fine whine!

   There once was a man from Michigan
   
   An election he set out to win
   
   He tried very hard
   
   To be chosen on the card
   
   But the people did not believe his spin

   Obama was stuck with the terrible muck
   left by Bush, the inelegant douche.
   Now he sighs, as he tries,
   To have the wit to beat a twit.

      I once threw a shoe at his head                            (lord bush)
      incarcerated, humiliated, i bled
      on national tv was he
      ducked and dived like mohamed ali
      and wall street they are so divine
      yet i make out they are swine
      how will this sad saga end
      when we all refuse to bend
      so be it.
