While visiting his niece, an elderly man had what was apparently a stroke.
She drove wildly to get him to the Emergency Room.
After what seemed like a very long wait, the ER doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face.

"Oh, dear," cried the woman, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock -- "We've never had a Democrat in the family before!"
