Ice fishing

Now this is just Minnesota funny.
The Presidential election was too close to call.
Neither the Republican candidate nor the Democratic
candidate had enough votes to win. There was much
talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc.,
but a week-long ice fishing competition seemed the
sportsmanlike way to settle things. The candidate that
caught the most fish at the end of the week would win the election.

Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing
contest between the two candidates to determine the winner.

After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the
contest take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota.

There were to be no observers present, and both men were to be
sent out separately on this isolated lake and return at 5 P.M. with
their catch for counting and verification by a team of neutral parties.
At the end of the first day, John Mc. returned to the starting line and he had ten fish.

Soon, Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just having
another 'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day.

At the end of the 2nd day John Mc. came in with 20 fish
and Obama came in again with none.

That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said,
'Obama, think John Mc. is a low-life, 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 just
how he is cheating.'

The next night (after John Mc. returns with 50 fish), said to Obama,
'Well, tell me, how is John Mc. cheating?'

Obama replied, 'Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting holes in the ice.'
