Politics Jokes

Picking a Candidate

Two candidates for political office inadvertently scheduled
simultaneous
campaign rallys in the same park of a small New England
town. After a
lengthy round of speeches, the candidates worked their way
through the
crowd - shaking hands, kissing babies and beaming mightily.

Suddenly, the skies opened and it began to rain. One of the
candidates fled
to take shelter in a nearby restaurant along with half a
dozen regulars.
The other candidate, however, continued to move through the
crowd - shaking
hands, kissing babies, etc.

"That man's persistence yonder," observed one of the
natives, "sure makes
it easy to know who to vote for."

"Yep," another native agreed. "Sure can't see myself casting
a vote for a
man who hasn't the good sense to come in out of the rain."
