A Blast from the Past
After all the speculation, spin, and pontification this is kind of how I feel about Sarah Palin.
You lying* so low in the weeds Bet you gonna amBush me You'd have me down on my knees Wouldn't you, Barracuda?
Back over Time when we were all trying for free Met up with porpoise and me No right no wrong you're selling a Song - a name whisper game
If the real thing don't do the trick You better make up something quick You gonna burn it out to the wick aren't you, Barracuda?
I know it's a catchy tune and all. . . but did anyone at the Republican Party bother to listen to, or read, Barracuda's lyrics before choosing it as the unofficial theme song for would-be Vice President Sarah Palin aka Sarah Barracuda?
Rick Perlstein posted this a while back with the title "Don't Laugh" - as he pointed out, they won.

Her theme tune, Heart's Barracuda, says it all -
You lying* so low in the weeds
Bet you gonna amBush me
You'd have me down on my knees
Wouldn't you, Barracuda?

For the record Spiro Agnew inspired the following paraphrase I came up with the other day. . .

He and his speech writers seemed to be big on alliteration.
