It's Not as Easy to Impress When People Stop Saying "Yes, We Can."



Ouch.
I think, that were I strong so very long
As I could muster fans, I’d quickly set
A record for the White House, and I’d bet
The former Speaker, if amidst the throng
Of cheering, could attempt the very same
Maneuvered run that got him up the hill,
Barack Obama. Speaking on the chill
Of audiences who had had to tame
The innermost desire to reveal
Intensity, or anger, or a voice
That, in a cheer, proclaimed to all the choice
For all of them was Newt, I truly feel
That he, propelled to victory on cheering,
Might find his strength too quickly disappearing.
