BONUS!

♫ Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Ned
Rich profiteer, and it all went to his head
After reading Daily KOS, only thing he could conclude
He'd steal a Senate seat from that Lieberman dude.

Now, most folks know old Ned's a millionaire
He's got a staff of twenty and they all tend to his hair
They say Washington is the place you ought to be
You don't need a platform, just spout out hyperbole ♫
