Down the Stretch

And here comes Pennsylvania rounding the far turn,
spurred on by her buoyant rider, Li’l Ben FX, passing now,
on the outside, Arizona, ridden by John McCain’s ghost,
and Georgia, with the devil in the saddle, and Nevada,
which many voters thought had a lock on second place.
Lastly, falling back on the rail is North Carolina, whose rider,
Thom Tillis, looks like he might better appreciate the ACA
when this horse race is over. His steed looks extremely spent.
