With a hat tip to James Taranto of The Wall Street Journal, popularizer of the form, I compose a bye-ku for Gov. Lincoln Chafee, who today dropped out of the Democratic race for president.
Poor Lincoln Chafee,
An anti-war Democrat
Could get no traction.
A couple of decades into The Long War no anti-war candidate - neither Chafee nor Paul - finds many supporters. Perhaps voters are more realistic than we sometimes fear.
