Re “The Bard as pundit,” Opinion, March 16

Two noble houses do appear o’er fallen:

The Texan Bush, his legacy in ashes,

And now the wife of Bill endures the pain

Of watching as the black Obama dashes

All her hopes to seize her husband’s mantle.

Yet all’s not lost, don’t count her out just yet.

The young upstart could stumble, trip and fall,

And she could best McCain, the aged vet.
