A few lines on Lieberman’s defeat, with apologies to Hank

It wasn’t no close call like Ohio
Daily Kos helped make you toast, time to cry, oh
Son of a gun, now you gotta run as an (I), oh

Rich-ass snobs in Cos Cob, sippin’ chai, oh
And chulos up in Hartford in the barrio
Catholic priests and union chiefs, all passed you by, oh
Son of a gun, now you gotta run as an (I), oh

About the left-wing blogs by the dozen
Press is riled, netroots wild, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, now you gotta run as an (I), oh
