>
> "No problem, just let me in," says the Senator.. Well, I'd like to,

> champagne. Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly
> guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are all
> having such a good time that before the Senator realizes it, it is
> time to go.Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the
> elevator rises…
>
> The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St.
> Peter is waiting for him, "Now it's time to visit heaven.." So, 24
> hours passed with the Senator joining a group of contented souls
> moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a
> good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and
> St. Peter returns. "Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and
> another in heaven. Now choose your eternity. "The Senator reflects
> for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would never have said it
> before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be
> better off in hell." So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he
> goes down, down, down to hell..
>
> Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren
> land covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his friends, dressed
> in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more
> trash falls from above. The devil comes over to him and puts his arm
> around his shoulders. "I don't understand," stammers the Senator.
> "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and
> we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne and danced and had a great
> time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends
> look miserable. What happened?" The devil smiles at him and says,
> "Yesterday we were campaigning ... Today, you voted"..
