Packers: 28 Redskins: 14

Hmmm ... well if the "curse"(1) works that means Bush loses tomorrow. Then again, Bush beat the 0 year curse(2) as well. Methinks that all curses are null and void with this man since he WASN'T the elected candidate.

(1) Since '33, if the Redskins lost their last homegame before the election, the incumbant has lost the white house as well. Here's hoping the curse does still hold strong.

(2) Do I really need to go on about the 0 year curse?

Interesting correlation... apparently there's one also where if the stock market goes down on the morning of the election, the incumbent loses.

IIRC, he was also the first shorter candidate to win.

I'm not sure what the 0 year curse is...

The curse

For most of the last 200 years, every president elected into office on a 0 year was killed in office. Reagan was the first to survive it. It was an indian curse... I have the paper detailing somewhere, but I've moved out of state recently, and I'm not certain where it is. VERY cool bit of history.

Found it

He wasn't the first 0 year canidate to survive the curse.

Reagan was. He =was= shot, but didn't die.

Yeah, I know that. The man was a lousy shot. But the curse knew that Bush wasn't elected. Therefore, he didn't die in office. Of course, it didn't always hit them the first term either ... hmmmm

If Bush "wins" Ohio. Start buying pretzels in bulk to send to the White House.
