A satirical poem traces a northern blizzard sweeping to Philadelphia and New York, then pivots to a harsh critique of the Republican Party in 1884. It laments a lack of issues and mocks party leaders while quoting Indiana and Chicago papers. It closes with caustic reflections on Cleveland era politics and party demise.
