Andy Borowitz: Gore loses bid to run ‘shadow government’:

Just days after it was revealed that there is a “shadow government” in place underground somewhere outside of Washington, D.C., former Vice-President Al Gore was trounced in his bid to become President of it.

Subterranean voters gave the former vice-president a scant 38% of the vote, with 59% going to Buford T. Bush, an amateur motocross competitor and a distant cousin of President George W. Bush. JWR
