The Washington Redskins lost today. In 16 elections going back to 1932, when they lose in the game before the election, the incumbent loses. When they win the incumbent wins.

Oh no!

Yes, but a Packer win is my personal good luck charm. Don't sweat it. ; )

The statistics on Democrats not winning the presidency if they don't carry Missouri stretch back to the early 19th century.

Bush is leading in Missouri in an averaging of polls, by 4.7%.

The stat on the Redskins stretches back to the 1930's. Far less time than the Missouri stat.

The Missourri stat is more compelling.

Oh No! for Democrats.
