With a song in their hearts

For reasons not entirely clear, the Democratic candidates for President were asked at a recent debate to name their favorite songs. Here are their answers:

–Carol Moseley Braun: “You Gotta Be,” by Des’ree.

–Al Sharpton: “Talking Loud and Saying Nothing,” by James Brown.

–John Edwards: “Small Town,” by John Mellencamp

–John Kerry: “No Surrender,” by Bruce Springsteen

–Howard Dean: “Jaspora,” by Wyclef Jean.

–Joe Lieberman: “Don’t Stop (Thinking About Tomorrow),” by Fleetwood Mac, and “My Way,” by Frank Sinatra

–Dennis Kucinich: “Imagine,” by John Lennon

–Dick Gephardt: “Born in the U.S.A.,” by Bruce Springsteen

–Bob Graham: “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes,” by Jimmy Buffett

Any guesses what George W. Bush would have said?
