tablesaw | Candidacy clerihew.

I wrote an extensive song pastiche about the special election, but it's destined for The Enigma and, thus, cannot be reprinted here. Don't worry, I'm sure there will be more. For now, I leave you with this clerihew on the subject of one of the contestants on Who Wants to Be Governor of California? The Debating Game. (wjukknibs, you know I'll be invading your digitally cabled house for that one.)

A uniformed patrolman
Once arrested Gary Coleman,
And he was convicted in a county court.
His defense came up short.
