The Lyrics

America's 2012 Presidential election revealed a sea change in the demographics of the nation's electorate ...
See Mitt the white man tango
With the Ryan he adored
I was feeling campaign-ad sick
And the crowd called out "We're bored!"
A storm hit New York harbor
And New Jersey blew away
Christie called out for some storm relief
He got it right away

And so it was
That later
Voters' tallies told the tale
That Mitt's fans, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter ... shade of male

Mitt said, "There is no reason,
To write a con-cession speech"
But he wandered through the poll returns
Which would not let him be
An Elect'ral College surgeon
Whose win-cision could be closed
Mitt's astonished eyes then showed him
That his vict'ry hopes were hosed

And so it was
That later
Vict'ry rallies told the tale
G.O.P., at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter ... shade of male

JD!!!! Glad to see you, and enjoyed all of this, but especially 'Jersey blowing away' and 'win-cision'.

Really great to see you back Johnny! Lovely job on this one; agree with Glen on those two particular phrases.

Thanks, Merry!

Really nifty subbing here, echoing rhyme phonetics of OS perfectly. Well done! You won my full endorsement.

Sorry I'm late, but 555 for a funny take on the election results! (Security Code = 3VP - I guess in Ryan's case VP doesn't stand for either Vice-president or victory parade.)

Johnny! Great to see you. Time has not damaged the creative juices (as if it would have!). As with Merry, hope you keep coming back.

Sometimes a parody is more than just a parody - it is Art as well. Some fantastic wordplay that echoes the OS here - I bow down to you sir. A full-on 555.
