Here's my two cents:

California’s a state with a history that’s great
But fate a great history can alter
Her citizens knew that a Liberal few
At her helm were hell-bent to assault her

Their ivory towers stood as symbols of power
That the people had doomed for destruction
And filled as they were, with their pensions assured
Became targets for patriot actions

When the recall struck Mr. Davis, he shook
And political bells started ringin’
But Democrats knew, there’d be media crews
And were hopin’ that help, they’d be bringin’

While some ran off scared, others hid under chairs
But discovered their peril had doubled
When Arnold chimed in, they went scamblin’
It was clear they were deeply in trouble

The pollsters it seems were aghast at the scene
And predicted October disaster
The Clinton-disaster-recovery crew
If they flew, couldn’t get there much faster

When a tyrant’s prayers turn to bitter despair
It leaves Liberal hearts dis-believin’
They prayed by their phones, but were never alone
For the Devil was sharin’ their grievin’

In the Vote-booth debris, liberals fell to their knees
As they gathered the chad-covered ballots
But before they could speak, voters started to shreik
Chasing ‘Rats from their once-sacred palace

California’s a state with a history that’s great
But fate, a great history can alter
The courage displayed by her people that day
Is a lesson for Dems who'd assault her

I think yours is better than mine! I love the "chad-covered ballots" and the way it flows as a ballad (story). Someone really should try to cobble together the best stanzas by various folks and make it a FR "thing" ... maybe someone can even make a midi of it. Hope G.Lightfoot doesn't sue. :P
