a cheerful Liz Warren song to the tune of "Dixie"

I really like Elizabeth Warren and I think some others here do too. Her stands on education, the lending business, the insurance business, politics-bending donations from organized greed etc. This morning a cheerful song to the tune of "Dixie" occurred to me. I thought I'd share it:

Way down East in the land of Boston
's where their bonuses 'r going to cost 'em
Look away! Look away!
Look away, Lizzieland!

The Rich can't buy our Lizzie
Hurray! Hurray!
The middle class will whip their [rears]
and win some pride with Lizzie

Away, away,
Away down East to Lizzie!

Well, we certainly have to admit that anyone who has a catchy song must be the best candidate!
 


I'm glad you agree she's best!
I agree with you about Euclid and beauty too :biggrin:

What's not to like about Lizzie Warren. :smile:

They might sing it in some kind of "Landslide" medley. :rolleyes:
