Bushorgore Wins in Landslide Victory

Shit Creek (Associated Poets):

Al W. Bushorgore has been elected the next president of the United
States by an enormous margin, all but shutting out rival Ralph Nader.
Bushorgore received 98% of the popular vote to Nader's 2%, and swept
the electoral college.

A recount is underway in several states, but it's not clear why this
has been deemed necessary, since Bushorgore won by such a decisive
margin.

Billionaires were elated.  "I have no comment; Jeeves, dispose of this
pesky reporter," said ultra-wealthy tobacco heir Jasper Worthington
Cartwright IV in an extremely brief interview with Newspoetry.com.

Control of the congress has once again been handed to an elite class
of unelected lobbyists.
