A Limerick on Rand Paul’s Departure

The GOP stalwart named Rand.

Things didn’t quite go as he planned.

He thought he could win.

Terror plots did him in.

For his efforts, I’ll give him a hand.

I thought he would fight fruitlessly to the end, like his dad, but I guess he decided to save his Senate seat, which obviously makes sense.  He brought a libertarian perspective to the debates that will be missed (unlike, say, Christie’s action hero persona).  The logical beneficiary of his demise is Cruz.
