Election 2008 Haiku
by Gary R. Cohan, M.D.


Hillary had it
But a cruel fate intervened.
Her own husband's mouth.


Hothead POW
Veers off wildly to the Right.
And disappoints all.


"Terrorist," Ayers,
"Socialist," "Muslim," "HUSSEIN."
Futile distractions.


Economic plunge.
Candidates' leadership test.
Stuntman looks foolish.


Ms. Palin spews lies,
In a red leather jacket.
Truth flows from brown skin.


Expensive new clothes
Cannot mask an imposter.
Eloquence eludes her.


"Drill, Baby, Drill."
"Trickle down economics."
Failed policies all.


The battleground states
Are morphing red, purple, blue.
Strategists cast blame.


Michelle has the grace
Of which First Ladies are made.
Our new Jackie O.


Brown Hawaiian man
Adopts "American Dream."
Generations cheer.

Crazed LA doctor
Spends time composing poems.
Election madness.

Hoping for better
Internist cheers candidate
On to victory.

Like many others
Obama inspires doctor
To say "Yes We Can!"

Hillary Rudy
John Mitt Mike Bill Joe Chris Ron
Then came Obama

Some saw Wasilla
But all I saw was emos
Todd the Palin drone?
