To realize her life’s ambition
She needed some competition
Before she was hoping and wishing
By default she’d inherit the position
Now her back is against the wall
But she’ll find a way to overcome all
Before the primaries fall
She’ll be the one standing tall

Now this is not to suggest
Of her opponent I think any less
To do so would be to digress
Cos I like him I have to confess
But I’m trying to be pragmatic
Without sounding too emphatic
See I’m not trying to cause any static
But to select anyone else would be irratic

Now I’ve looked at the other side
And if the laws of logic are applied
There’s a reason they’ll all be denied
They’re not on the voters side
They’re in bed with the lobbyists
Who’ve shown them the most largesse
So If by now you haven’t guessed
At best they’re owned by special interests

I do feel once the dust finally settles
And the voters have tested her metal
Her opponents will have back-pedaled
And she’ll find her way home like Gretel
She’s destined to make history
Though she already has if you’re asking me
It’s just something that’s meant to be
And she’s qualified ultimately
