Carville, Gore & Bush in an Ice Fishing Contest
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 fairest 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 Minnesota. There were to be no observers present since both men were to be sent out on this remote lake and return daily with their catch for counting and verification.
At the end of the first day, George W. Bush returns to the starting line and he has 10 fish. Soon, Al Gore returns and has zero fish. Well, everyone assumes Al 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 Al Gore comes in again with none.
That evening, Bill Clinton gets together secretly with Al Gore and says, "Al, I think George W. is a lowlife cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I'm a gonna dress this good ol' Southern Boy, James Carville, as a jackass (now some folks say this wouldn't be too hard to do) and send him out on the lake to a ct as a spy."
The next night (after George W. comes back with so many fish he had to have help counting them which turned out to be 50 and Al Gore comes back with none), Bill gets Carville and Al Gore together and says to Carville: Well, what about it boy, is George W. cheatin?
Carville replied, "He sure is Bill, he's cuttin' holes in the ice!"
