Default New Statesman: Clerihews

The present competition (Number 4140) is for clerihews featuring any active politician, home grown or foreign. Maximum ten per compeitor to comp@newstatesman.co.uk by 19thb August.

Well, I thought of one in the car. Needs a bit of polishing perhaps?

If Boris
Had been christened Maurice
Would he still bestride London like a Colossus,
Or be just one of those ordinary Old Etonian tossus?

Question - which American politicians have the Brits at the Staggers heard of. Obama and the divine Sarah, I should say. And which Aussies - Rudd, the Welsh lady and the Liberal in the speedos, Tony Adams is it?
