The morning after November 6, 2012, America was in chaos.
The Presidential election was too close to call!
Neither the Republican candidate nor Obama had enough votes to win. There was much talk about ballot recounting,
court challenges, etc.
Eventually, it was decided that a week-long ice fishing contest between the two candidates seemed the sportsmanlike way to settle things. The candidate who caught the most fish at the end of the week would win the election.
After much back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest would take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Wisconsin.
There were to be no observers present. The two candidates 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, the Republican candidate returned to the starting line with 10 fish. Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just having a bad day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day.
At the end of the 2nd day the Republican came in with 20 fish but Obama came in again with none.
That evening, Obama got together secretly with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the other top Democrats. Obama said, "I think the Republican candidate is a low-life, cheatin' son-of-a-gun. Tomorrow, spy on him and see just how he is cheating."
The next night (after the Republican candidate returns with 50 fish and Obama, again, with none), the Democrats got together for the report of how the Republicans were cheating.
Obama said, "You are not going to believe this, he's cutting holes in the ice!"
