Rick's Big Surprise

Rick’s Big Surprise Newt hid out in the buckeye state Nothing tonight added to his slate. Paul’s grass roots youthful surrogates Continue quest for delegates Loss of Liberty is his fear He slams the fed and wild crowds cheer. Not much noise from the Romney camp For on this night they had no amps. No matter how they spin their grief Morning found them in disbelief Nevada did not provide a bump Nor did the voice of Donald Trump. Rick pulled off a three state surprise Populism is on the rise His crowd has enthusiasm Frontrunner had painful spasm Here’s the lesson of the night Mitt Can’t buy love you have to earn it. Written after Rick Santorum’s primary and caucus wins in the states of Missouri, Minnesota, and Colorado. .
