3/9/2006 - Diversion

A little political humor for your blogging pleasure:

Version 1. A man is walking in a dark alley. A scoudrel with a gun jumps out of the shadows.

"Who you gonna vote for?" says the scoundrel, menacingly.

"Go ahead and shoot."

Version 2. A man is walking in a dark alley. A scoudrel with a gun jumps out of the shadows.

"Who you gonna vote for?" says the scoundrel, menacingly.

"Well, gee, I haven't voted in the last 10 years, but I'm going to try this year. I'll probably vote for the Republicans because they care about welfare and stuff. Is my senator a Republican?"

Needless to say, scoundrel shoots self.

Version 3. A man is walking in a dark alley. A scoudrel with a gun jumps out of the shadows.

"Who you gonna vote for?" says the scoundrel, menacingly.

The man answers. The scoundrel aggregates his data and publishes his results (sampling error of +/- 2.4%). While the pundits debate whether the open form question or poor sampling procedure was more deleterious to the result's credibilty, scoundrel steals their wallets.

Version 4. A man is walking in a dark alley. A scoudrel with a gun jumps out of the shadows. "Who you gonna vote for?" says the scoundrel, menacingly.

"Who you gonna vote for?" says the scoundrel, menacingly.

"You, Mr. Burr, you!"

Blogger's note: In 40 years, that last joke will be regarded as "wry" and "subtle." Today, it's probably still in poor taste...
