Reports that the Republican National Committee has given up on the re-election of Ohio Senator Mike DeWine, and has pulled his funding, are not greatly exaggerated. Here is DeWine’s bitter swan song to the RNC (with apologies to the iconic Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young):
They fold ya’ and nix on money
I’m finally on my own
This midterm I’ll just be slumming
I’m dead in OhioGOP clowns blew it
Iraq war is gunning me down
We shoulda’ pulled out long ago
Voters are now for Brown
My workers have all left the ground
How can you run when you blowFoley and Ney blew it
Corruption is gunning me down
Should have gone Dem long ago
Now that I need Blackwell
Fixing votes on the ground
Gotta’ pay Diebold more doughThey roll ya’ and nix on money
I’m finally on my own
My Senate career succumbing
I’m dead in OhioI’m dead in Ohio
