"Sure Thing" by Calvin Trillin, Deadline Poet

"June
It’s all but decreed: 
Because of his breed,
Jeb Bush is the steed 
Republicans need.
This Bush guaranteed
A fat-cat stampede.
Most pundits agreed 
That soon we would read, 
'Jeb’s rivals concede.'

October
Whatever he’d plead, 
Few voters would heed. 
His poll numbers skied 
Downhill with a speed 
He could not impede. 
Stuff happens, indeed."

"There's room at the top they are telling you still.
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill."
