Senate Sandwich Men
Paid advertisements Senators as sandwich men? It's not a case of 'why' but 'when'. For who's financing their campaigns? We're told who 'gets' but not who 'gains'; A job for federal overseers? That's the 'why' we've known for years. When Senators in sandwich boards Can advertise their overlords, No one will need to guess the sources Of stipends for McConnell's horses. If boards read "Citigroup Boardroom", won't we know who's paying whom? Supported by campaign finance, His ads will show who's backed his stance. With Citi's not his only sign, He'll look like NASCAR's starting line, With front and back completely plastered, a crew chief lobbyists have mastered.
