For the last couple of years the organizers of the Lost Angeles Marathon have come up with a novel way to make the race more exciting and competitive. They calculate the time differences between finishing times of the Men and Women's divisions for the past year and handicap the men.

They start the women first and the men follow about 18 minutes later. The men play catch up for the whole race.....

If the first place woman can finish ahead of the men's first place finisher, she wins 10,000 dollars. (or it's 100,000, I don't remember.)

Now, If a woman can beat a man over 26.2 miles in tennis shoes....then a woman in woman's shoes should be able to kick the arse of any man across the United States.

Now, how to handicap the Presidential race?

Make the men wear thongs and panty hose...

On second thought.....
