Candidates Negotiate Unprecedented PowerSharing Agreement. Both to share White House: One as President, one as First Lady! Voters must decide: Who will make a sexier First Lady? Cast your vote for First Lady 2000. Visit www.firstlady2000.com
FULL STORY:
The presidential candidates came together in the early hours last Friday to settle the disputed election results 'Mano a Mano'.
The two men negotiated for the better part of one half hour, though reputable sources peeking through the window claim that they did spend about 10 minutes applying Noxzema to the gigantic boil on Bush's cheek. After a quick review of "Cliff's Notes: The American Constitution" and a brief arm-wrestle, the candidates finalized an unprecedented PowerSharing (TM) agreement, in which both will take office in the White House.
There will be a worldwide re-vote to determine who will be President and who will act as First Lady. Both candidates agreed that having a male First Lady this term will significantly reduce public confusion when Bill Clinton assumes that role in 2004.

EXIT POLL UPDATE 11/21/00:
It's been a tight race since polls opened on Friday, but exit polls confirmed that Gore has a slim lead. Bush's lawyers are already voicing complaints. Apparently, over 2000 votes have been discarded because voters failed to place their mouse pointers exactly over the 'eChad', or tiny circle underneath the candidates photos, which has to be filled in electronically for the vote to be valid. This apparently confused some voters, who were instead placing their mouse pointers over candidate's faces or other body parts.
Bush's camp is arguing that Republican voters are not as Internet-savvy as Democrat voters. They say that Democrats have a special affinity for the Internet, because their leader invented it, and would be more likely to know how to correctly fill in the eChad.
The race is extremely tight, however, so then entire online population of 160 million are encouraged to cast their votes today at www.firstlady2000.com
