I really don't understand the point of this?

I'm aware of when they have won and lost. I'm also aware there are a number of superstitutions being passed around this site, that have been fullfilled, that point to Bush victory. For instance, which "First Lady" wins the cookie contest. FYI, Laura Bush did.

Just as I am aware Nick polls say their surveys have always predicted the winner, and this time it was Kerry. While is it Reader's Digest? Or Scholastics? have great track record, and predict Bush.

The Red Sox being "cursed" was superstitution.

This is also superstitution.

I don't buy into superstitution. Period. I believe in Faith, I believe in God, but I am not the type of person that wears lucky socks nor will I ever be.

People are free to believe what they want, but I will deride superstitutions no matter what the result because at some point or another they are always broken. Ask the Red Sox.

Neither do I. I think it's incredible peolple come up with these theories based on coincidence. Another famous one is the Super Bowl winner predicting the stock market for the next year.

You should really wear socks. Or have your ankles tattooed blue.
