Democrats Brats, Ratpublicans "Frat Boys"
Ratvertisement Rattles Pratsidential Rat Race

Rotses are Ret
Violats are Blue
Dubya's Ratverts
will raptnotize you
Shall I compare thee to a rat?
Thine eyes are beady
your pouches full of other's abundance
You live amonsgt the muck you rake
Yes, "rat" is a fair appelation for you,
Bush, Gore, now that
this campaign has reached
its Nadir
There once was a rat named Al Gore
Who smelled an ad rat, so he swore
The rodent in question
(a hidden suggestion)
Was ratten, like both, to the core
"Rats" in a Bush ad --
subliminal messages
state the obvious
