‘Twas the night before Election Day
when all through the state
Charlie’s poll numbers were moving
but was it too late?
The prognosticators were predicting
on the Buzz and Fox News
That Charlie’s Senate hopes
were giving him the blues

about all of the Obama debt
Signing on to the stimulus
would be Charlie’s biggest regret
With Carol in her negligee
and Charlie in his Speedos
He looked like Pinocchio
with his really long nose
