The "Redskins Rule" has worked in 17 of the last 18 Presidential elections. If the Redskins win their last home game before the election, the incumbent party retains power. If the Redskins lose, the incumbent party loses.

Only exception is 2004, but the idea there is Gore winning the popular vote but losing the Electoral College in 2000 "reversed polarity" for the 04 election cycle.

FWIW, the Skins are favored at home this Sunday against the Panthers.

FWIW Obama will win, thanks entirely to a national media absolutely on a mission to make sure he's reelected.

Yankees did not win the series, the world will not end when the Mayan calendar ends. This is a year of breaking streaks and jinxes.

Yep, these omens work until they no longer work. UK and the Yankees is the most recent example.

Reminds me. Order the MREs. Just in case Obama wins. I wonder if the Mayans stopped the calendar b/c the US debt got to be too high for them to count so they just figured it was over at that point anyway.

FEMA is wrecking any goodwill Obama had from showing up at Sandy disaster sites. I suppose it's Bush's fault lol
