This just in-
"I just saw John Bair at a political fund raiser in NYC Weds night….and he was laughing out loud at how proud he was to have John Edwards in his camp….". -An observer at the event.
A parody to the tune of "The Gambler"
On a warm summer's evenin at a fund raiser in New York City
I met up with the bundler; the slippery little sneak
So we both took turns a starin at the National Enquirer
Til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
He said son I've made a life, out of "buying people's business"
And isn't my check in the mail, the sight they want to see?
So if you don't mind my sayin, it's what they call fund raising
Go on and write a check big boy, it will set you free
So when we read about old Johnny, that's Johnny Lyin' Edwards
Said how's "his vouch" workin for you, now his cheatin's come to light?
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression
Said, if you're gonna play the game boy, y'all know that's just life
To which I sang:
You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold them
Know when to walk away, know when to run.
You never bundle money for a cheating politician
There'll be plenty o' time to buy influence before your career is done.
He said how could it go so wrong? I said "Call Spooner" NOT "Have a Nooner!"
We've bundled so much dough for him, I really can't keep count
He really thought that Johnny would be Attorney General
Now he's looking for another on whom to flaunt an amount.
You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold them
Know when to walk away, know when to run.
