az4life Report post Posted September 14, 2008 The Presidential election was too close to call. Neither John McCain or Barack Obama had enough votes to win. There was much talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc., but the election committee finally decided on a more sportsmanlike way to settle things. It was decided that there should be a week long ice fishing contest between the two candidates to determine the election winner. The candidate that caught the most fish at the end of the week would win the election. After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest would take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota There were to be no assistants or 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, McCain returned to the check point and he had ten fish. Soon, Obama returned and had no fish Well, everyone assumed he was just having a 'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day. At the end of the 2nd day McCain came in with 20 fish and Obama came in again with none. That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said, 'Barack, I think McCain is a low-life, cheatin' guy. "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 McCain returns with 50 fish), Harry said to Obama, 'Well, tell me, how is McCain cheating?' Obama replied, 'Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting holes in the ice.' Experience Counts ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
