I got an email from a friend in Ireland , who writes as follows:
 
'We, in Ireland , can't figure out why people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States .
 
On one side, you have a gal who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, running against a lawyer who is married to a gal who is a lawyer.
 
On the other side, you have a war hero married to a good looking woman who owns a beer distributorship.
 
What are you lads thinking over there?'
