Ice Fishing (in November)

Once upon a time, long, long ago there was a Presidential election that was
too close to call. Neither the Republican presidential candidate nor the
Democratic presidential candidate had enough votes to win the election.

Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing contest
between the two candidates to determine the final winner. There was much
talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc., but a week-long ice
fishing competition seemed the (manly) way to settle things. The candidate
who catches the most fish at the end of the week wins. After a lot of back
and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest would take place on a
remote and cold lake in Wisconsin. There were to be no observers present and
both men were to be sent out separately on this remote lake and return daily
with their catch for counting and verification.

At the end of the first day, George W. returns to the headquarters and he
has 10 fish.Soon, Kerry, who has answers to everything, but no plan, returns
and has zero fish. Well, everyone assumes he is just having another bad hair
day or something and hopefully, he will catch up the next day. At the end of
the 2nd day George W. comes in with 20 fish and Kerry comes in again with
none.

That evening, Bill Clinton gets together secretly with Kerry and says, "I
think George W.is a lowlife cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I want you to go out
tomorrow and don't even bother with fishing. Just spy on him and see if he
is cheating in any way. The next night (after George W. comes back with 50
fish), Clinton says to Kerry, "Well, what about it, is George W. cheatin'?"

"He sure is, Bill, he's cutting holes in the ice."
