Supreme Court Justice Paul Stevens may be giving the President a double whammy. Obama's attention may soon be split between replacing the retiring Stevens and helping Democrats maintain control in Congress.
Maintaining Status Quo
A fight to replace Paul Stevens
On the country's highest court
Could very well cause problems
And make Democrats fall short.
As he tries to keep a balance
Between the left and right
The prez could be distracted
From a huge legislative fight.
Because outside the court room,
Come November on Capitol Hill,
The GOP could take control;
Giving the left a bitter pill.
Republicans are working hard
To give Democrats the axe.
And that has left the president
With two big balancing acts.
