Des Moines, Iowa (CNN) - As the clock ticks towards the start of the primary and caucus calendar, campaigning here in the Hawkeye state kicks into high gear.
Five of the major Republican presidential candidates will campaign in Iowa on Tuesday with one week to go until the state's January 3 caucuses, the first contest in the race for the GOP nomination. And as the candidates criss-cross the state, Iowa airwaves will see an explosion of campaign TV commercials, following a brief lull for Christmas.

(to the tune of "My Favorite Things", and with many apologies to Julie Andrews)
Newt is irate due to ads run by Mittens
Perry blanked out and now he's having kittens
Bachman's a flake and Ron Paul's logic stings
These are a few of my fa-vor-ite things!
Santorum's nuts but you can't say he's lazy
Hunstman is smart but he's not enough crazy
Tea Party wants to pull everyone's strings
These are a few of my fa-vor-ite things!
When the polls drop, when the ads flop
When FOX says they're sad,
I simply remember that Newt's falling too
And then I don't feel so baaaaa-aaaaad!
What a horrible way to spend the holidays. I can't believe Iowans put up with this every four years.
Iowa, none of these GOP idiots are worth. These idiots are for Rich, Oil, Corporate greed, and Foreign Cheap Labor. and Shipping jobs overseas, and Wars, Wars, and Wars....Already planning to war with Iran to loot the nation. Nonsense.

Thanks for the laugh, G.
Gonzo – You are the best! Brilliant synopsis.
Thank gawd it's almost over. If I hear about one more debate I will personally fill a creek with tea!
No wonder so many are still undecided. If these candidates were not able to sell what they have, do they think they can do it within a week left??? I doubt it!
I always knew that Wire Paladin in SF would be into show tunes, but funny nonetheless Gonzo! Hehehehe
