Sorry, Packers
From Snopes:
FOOTBALL + ELECTIONDid you know....??
The Washington Redskins have proved to be a time-tested election predictor. In the previous 15 elections, if the Washington Redskins have lost their last home game prior to the election, the incumbent party has lost the White House. When they have won, the incumbent has stayed in power.
This election year, that deciding game takes place on Sunday, October 31 ... vs. Green Bay.
I love the Packers, but I really want to see them lose that game 
Wow...is that true? Too funny...will have to watch that game.

Not that I am surprised, mind you.
Posted by: Vox at October 11, 2004 05:27 AMBTW: Before you put bad words (or the slightly altered versions) on my site - you should be more sure you are correct.
I'm just sayin'...

actually, head over to new times and read the cover story. it acutally does a good job of explaining my position.
also, i'm not a real redskins fan. you gotta love the workhorse mentality of brett favre and the packers.
in an election year, no body is just a sports fan.
