Synopsis:
the presidential primaries are coming under the comic lens of songs and sketches, including "Flip!", a song which tells why it's not so bad to be a flip-flopper; "Anybody but Mitt!", a Republican cry to a Sondheim tune, "Just Leave Us Be", the lament of the businessmen who don't want to be regulated; "Take Your Gun to Church", a Second Amendment number; "I Found a Job", a Joni Mitchell parody about life in New York City; and "Obama's Insomnia", which finds the President in the Lincoln Bedroom, visited by the ghosts of Abe Lincoln, FDR, JFK, and much more.
