Lady Politicians

Hilary Clinton
                                                    Did no hintin',
                                        President she wanted to be.
                                          Instead she's a Secretary.


                                                      Sarah Palin
                                                 From Alaska hailin'.
                                         Nominated for Vice-President,
                                            Now she's just a resident.

Maureen Lefanue February 1, 2012 at 2:56 PM Thanks, Kim. I might live downunder in Australia, but still know what's going on in the US of A. Yes, it will still be some time before the US gets a female President in this male-dominated world. Shame, really....but glad it wasn't Hilary! God bless, Maureen

Robert Pettit January 26, 2012 at 11:27 PM Good double clerihew on two very prominent female politicians. I believe we are still a long way from ever electing a female President.

Andrea Dietrich January 26, 2012 at 6:03 PM and I am SO happy she is just a resident of Alaska on that last one. heehee. LOVED these, Kim!

Debra Squyres January 24, 2012 at 9:35 AM You did justice to these two also. Enjoying your clerihews this morning.
