Change

A pol had to cancel his plan
For the banner beneath which he ran,
Which read that "Obama
Cannot find Osama,"
When now it appears: Yes, he can.  

The death of Osama bin Laden, more than nine years after the 9/11 attacks, represents a watershed moment in US history.  Among other things, it will certainly shift the ground in the emerging 2012 Presidential race; how many political strategies were being torn up and written anew on Sunday evening at 11:00?

    Congratulations on your Honorable Mention for your amusing contribution to last week's Limerick-Off! (Although substituting the word "pol" was technically a no-no, your limerick was so good and so timely, I just had to give you an Honorable Mention!)
