Conventions Come, Conventions Go

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: August 24, 2008

What we can expect in Denver…

A Rocky Mountain high awaits
Obama and his running mate
as Denver greets the Democrats
a mile in the sky.

It promises to be some week
as Bill and Hill stand up to speak
The same-sex delegates (no doubt)
will have a gay old time.

But down in Colorado Springs
James Dobson's choir will likely sing
a song few liberals even know.
"God Knew Me in the Womb."

Conventions come, conventions go
but come next week we'll likely know
the odds McCain must overcome
once he lands in St. Paul.
