The politician was sitting at his campaign headquarters
The politician was sitting at his campaign headquarters when the phone rang. He listened intently, and after a moment his face brightened. When he hung up, he immediately phoned his mother to tell her the good news. “Ma,” he shouted, “the results are in. I won the election!”
“Honestly?”
The politician’s smiled faded. “Aw hell, ma, why bring that up at a time like this?”
