round one: Warren by acclamation

When Betsy Herring took your case apart
you felt her gleaming logic in your gut.
no one alive could doubt that she was smart
and brought a blazing talent to rebut.
The Senate let her flay a witness raw
for daring to mansplain how banking works.
This full professor out of Harvard Law
has zero tolerance for WallStreet jerks.
Tonight, she took the stage as one of ten
as many more are gonna have to wait
while she makes mincemeat of these taller men
who came less well equipped to the debate.
Another Roosevelt for our new age
laid bare corruption from Miami's stage.
