A New Whip For Mitch
(Masochism for the minority?)

Jon Kyl's fallen victim to Barack's Christmas Miracle.
Are you surprised Scrooge is taking it hard?
Did the prospect of Kyl spending Christmas with Brewer
Inspire Immigration to demand his green card?

Jon Kyl is such a big disappointment to Mitch.
He must be replaced, but who's up to the task?
It can't be DeMint or that cute Lindsey Graham.
It has to be someone he won't need to Ask.

Minority Whip is a sensitive job
That certainly shouldn't be left up for grabs,
Nor given to someone on whom Mitch is embarrassed
To let it be known that he's keeping tabs.

Will repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell screw up the Senate
If they suddenly know who their sidling up to
To make a pass at bipartisanship
Within their own party? Who needs to know who is who?

Arizona has long been a problem for Mitch
With Brewer, McCain and Kyl thorns in his side.
Is it the dry, desert cacti environment
Or a form of dementia they're unable to hide?
