Though Romney was leading right out of the gate,
He’s also a guy some conservatives hate.
But all other entries they managed to find
Were scratched from the start or have fallen behind.
So now they’ve decided that Newt is a whiz—
The horse that they’re backing, corrupt as he is.
Thus Gingrich, now galloping (though he’s quite husky),
May make Romney look like the late Edmund Muskie.
