Campaign Songs

NE Progressive has a great post of about some of his "favorite" songs and it reminds me that we should be glad that this year's candidates have avoided songs like these on their travels around Iowa.

(It's a great song, but really, who has the brass to use this one?)


and (Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo, this is for you)



and my favorite (For all the caucus-goers in Iowa)



Here's one I think would make a good one, if truth in advertising meant something on the campaign trail...
