<![CDATA[If Redskins win, McCain wins. If Steelers win, Obama wins.]]>NFL's Week 9 MNF will decide America's future: Obama or McCain

Circle it on the calendar: Week 9's Monday Night Football matchup of the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Washington Redskins. The date is Nov. 3, 2008. That's one day before the presidential election. Late that night is when the election will be determined. Not 24 hours later when NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox and CNN project Barack Obama or John McCain the winner. Nov. 3, 2008, is the presidential election version of Groundhog Day, only it comes every four years and we are somewhat confident that there is no evidence to show that a groundhog is used in any manner to determine the results.

Since 1940, the Washington Redskins have determined who won the presidency. Well, except one time, and that was 2004 when George W. Bush beat John Kerry. Of course, maybe there should be a recount in Ohio afterall. Anyway, the Redskins' final home game before the election is the one that determines the White House. If the Redskins win, the incumbent party wins the election. If the Redskins lose, the party out of power wins the White House. Fairly simple. And this leads us to the Pittsburgh Steelers at Washington, Nov 3, 2008.

Now remember, Redskins win, party in power wins; Redskins lose, party in power loses.

I've known a few women just like her. She comes walking up and your "yowza" meter shoots up and then she starts to talk and it's like someone injected saltpeter directly into your groin.

That voice is a dealbreaker.

First, it's all relative of course. For a prez/VP candidate, she's hot. Not like granny Hillary who's sporting that old lady mustache lately.

Second, I agree with you on the shrill part. She'd need a ball gag first.

The Redskins win but McCain and Palin win too. I have faith that even the least intelligent leftist is going to pause at the booth, and say, I just can’t do it. That guy Obama is a snake oil salesman and I just don’t need any snake oil. EF it, I’m voting for the honest old guy and that woman. She knows what the Ferk she’s talking about and she’s one tough broad. She’ll have old Barney Frank so confused and scared he will be blubbering more then he was on the Factor with O Riley. The people who work for a living are going to keep their money and the ones who don’t work are not going to get a hand out from the people that do. America is going to be great again. I have a Dream.

Not that McCain's the best person for the position, but I'm thinking Obama gets in by a minor landslide.

BTW - who wouldn't bang Palin?

Steelers win and dust off a painful loss to those Giants, reclaiming dominance in the AFC. Obama wins and taxes the shit out of us and spends us into oblivion, sending the financial crisis spiraling further downward while chumming up with terrorists who retake Iraq and Afghanistan and Joe Biden becomes the next Al Gore by claiming he invented Windows Vista.
