The World Series Predictor

TedTed
in Off-Topic
FYI: — Unless the Kansas City Royals can win the next two games of the World Series, look for the Democrats to do unexpectedly well in next week’s mid-term elections.
That’s because of a little-known indicator that used to have a large following. According to the so-called World Series Predictor, Republicans should do especially well on Election Day if the American League team — this year, the Royals — wins the World Series. In contrast, a win by the National League team — the San Francisco Giants this year — supposedly bodes well for the Democrats.
Regards,
Ted

    It is either "You are" mean or You're mean". It is not "Your mean".

    Hi John,

    Must be the chemicals, because it certainly can't be the buzz!

    If we consider the implications for a minute... are we really sure we want the Republicans to control Congress for the next two years? They will be blamed for all lack of progress and could make the Presidential election more difficult, whereas Obama has shown he can damage the Democrats without even trying hard. Maybe waiting two years and having a chance at the trifecta would be better than winning now. Just a thought.

    OK, I'm going for the tequila (to drink during the game:)) and I'll still hope for the American League even considering my question.
