Old and New Jokes

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 mans persistence yonder, observed one of the natives, sure makes it easy to know who to vote for.



Yep, another native agreed. Sure cant see myself casting a vote for a man who hasnt the good sense to come in out of the rain.
