Music to Republican Ears

As promised, here are some campaign songs for candidates for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination, so sing along!

1. Tune of "The Illini Fight Song"

We're loyal to you, John McCain!
We're true navy blue, John McCain!
We all understand
That when you take a stand
You're the best in the land, John McCain!

2. Tune of "Hushabye" by the Elegants (1)

Huckabee, Huckabee
He's the candidate for me!
He can lead the GOP
Down the path to victory!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh----
Huck, Huck, Huckabee!

Huckabee is my man,
If he can't win,
Then no one can,
Against the Left he will fight
'Cause in your heart, you knows he's Right!

3. Tune of "Ballad of the Green Berets"

A Senator from Tennessee
Star of movies and TV,
A Law & Order man is he
When he plays one on TV!

So make Fred Thompson President!
Follow Reagan's precedent!
And when he leaves the White House scene
He will return to the silver screen!

4. Tune of "Rudolph, the Red-Nose Reindeer"

Rudolph, New York's ex-mayor,
Wants to be your candidate,
And if you didn't know him,
You might even think he's great.

But Rudolph, New York's ex-mayor
Had a very messed-up life,
And if you don't believe it,
Go and ask his second wife!

5. Tune of "My Bonny Lies Over the Ocean"

I'm voting for Governor Romney
And hope that you're also for Mitt,
But if you like someone else better,
Then I think that you're full of sh-
allow thinking!

(1) You don't know it? "Hushabye" was only among the top ten tunes in America in the Summer of '58 . Where in blazes have you been?
