The opera ain’t over till the fat lady sings
The voting ain’t over till the last vote is sent
Not often does fate opportunity bring
To affect juris prudence for years without end
Some Reps. wanted cover for voting a yea
While holding their nose as they cast forth their vote
A straight-jacket FBI probe was their way
To safely gain cover not rocking the boat
The probe was perfunctory, limited scope
Designed not to find evidence of the truth
Noteworthy by what wasn’t part of the probe
And claims of Judge Kavanaugh not to refute
Senator Heitkamp went out on a limb
Declaring a NO vote – could cost her her seat
Senator Manchin who’s camp are you in?
Will you risk your seat Kavanaugh to defeat?
Collins, Murkowski both seem on the fence
They claimed it was thorough, the investigation
Deep down they both know ‘twas a sham a pretense
That should be rejected with true indignation
Eight thirty, tomorrow the fat lady sings
There’s Jeff Flake as well who could still vote a NO
It’s hard to foretell how the pendulum swings
I don’t think Brett makes it, but really, who knows?

Senator Heitkamp’s courage is commendable and remarkable, so last night we sent a contribution to her campaign. I hope she gets a lot of support in the last few weeks before the election.
Thanks, I, too, immediately did the same thing as have many others.
