The five finalists for this week’s caption contest are ready for your votes.

Using the comments section below, vote for your favorite caption until 5 p.m. EDT Thursday.

Here are this week’s finalists:

• He’s been singing the same tune for so long, it’s a wonder that he still needs to look at the words.
• I vote to defund my senses.
• What can I say? It’s better than the Kabuki-style theater we’ve had in Congress here lately.
• Our polls tell us this one’s easy: the one-note samba!
• At least it isn’t a Dr. Seuss book this time.

The cartoon with the winning caption will appear on this blog on Oct. 6 and in the following day’s print edition of Roll Call. The contest winner will receive a signed color print of his or her Capitol Quip cartoon from the cartoonist, R.J. Matson.
