Another year over
It vanished so fast
The year twenty twelve
Now belongs to the past.
The war for the White House
Invaded the year
The candidates played
To our hopes and our fear.
While Mitt split the world
Into moochers and makers
And said, "Forty-seven
percent are just takers."
Obama said, "Romney?
The dude's a fat cat!
And don't get me wrong
But you didn't build that."
At last, in November,
The campaigning done,
The votes were all counted
Obama had won.
