From the files of the most perspicacious Dragnet, on the subject of flat tires
and politics...

I was traveling between Phoenix and Ajo the other day south of Gila Bend,
when a tire blew out.

Checking my spare, I found that it too was flat. My only option was to flag
down a passing motorist and get a ride to the next town.

The first vehicle to stop was an old man in a van. He yelled out the window,
"Need a lift?"

"Yes, I sure do," I replied.

"You a Democrat or Republican," asked the old man.

"Republican," I replied.

"Well, you can just go to hell," yelled the old man as he sped off.

Another guy stopped, rolled down the window, and asked me the very same
question.

Again, I gave the same answer, "Republican."

The driver gave me the finger and drove off. I thought it over and decided
that maybe I should change my strategy, since this area seemed to be overly
political and there appeared to be few Republicans.

The next car to stop was a red convertible driven by a beautiful blonde.

She smiled seductively and asked if I was a Democrat or Republican.

"Democrat!" I shouted.

"Hop in!” replied the blonde.

Driving down the road, I couldn't help staring at the gorgeous woman in the seat
next to me, the wind blowing through her hair, perfect breasts, and a short skirt
that continued to ride higher and higher on her thighs.

Finally I yelled, "Please stop the car."

She immediately slammed on the brakes and as soon as the car stopped, I
jumped out.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"I can't take it anymore," I replied. "I've only been a Democrat for five
minutes and already I want to screw somebody."
