Nobodies Nobody Knew
Until Salvatore B. Russo paid himself his commissions

Why Christine O'Donnell, a mini-me Sarah?
Less family baggage, but she lies nonetheless.
And despite their ridiculous, nuttiness quotient,
She's never embarrassed. Why not's anyone's guess.

Though she's not the first – think Greene, Paul and Angle –
Christine's made her living by peddling this stuff,
Unlike the Congressman from Indiana?
Who conservatives hope will be just weird enough

To be their next candidate vs. Obama
With media buys by the Tea Party Express.
Sal Russo's complaining he barely breaks even,
Yet who can afford Russo's howling success?

Does name recognition really mean all that much?
A nobody for President that nobody knows?
And Palin for V.P.? Can Sal make her a winner?
Haven't we seen how well that nonsense goes?
