We're getting fresh news about how the fix in Ohio was pulled off in '04.

We're getting continuing tremors about what may be done to throw the '08 elections.

(And, of course, there's 2012 ... with all that implies.)

Maybe it's time for a thread of songs about the whole new way we do elections, now that we're no longer a democracy??? -- Rikki Tikki

All contributions invited. To start off with:

JUST A LIAR

Parody of Hank Williams' Jambalaya

Goodbye schmoe, I'm a pro, me oh my oh,
Me gotta go fix an election in Ohio,
Republican -- that's the one -- me oh my oh,
Republican has got to win in Ohio.

CHO
Just a liar and a falsifier and a mumbo jumbo,
Vote buyer, disqualifier and a phony numbo,
So the people won't elect the wrong guy-O,
Son of a gun! No Democrat won in Ohio.

Screw the foe, the counts we'll throw, TV's buzzin',
Our TV chums come for plums by the dozen,
Shred your files, smile your smiles, me oh my oh,
Wasn't it fun what we done in Ohio!
