This reminds me of a joke from my old fortune file (if you've already
heard this one too many times then, please, flame me):

   There was a plane crash over mid-ocean, and only three survivors were
   left in the life-raft: the Pope, the President, and Mayor Daley.
   Unfortunately, it was a one-man life-raft, and quickly sinking, so they
   started debating who should be allowed to stay.

   The Pope pointed out that he was the spiritual leader of millions all
   over the world, the President explained that if he died then America
   would be stuck with the Vice-President, and so forth.  Then Mayor Daley
   said, "Look!  We're not solving anything like this!  The only fair
   thing to do is to vote on it."  So they did, and Mayor Daley won by 97
   votes.

And now back to your regularly scheduled election-year sniping...
