Odd they are calling for a Trump win when the stock market dropped after the Weiner BS came out.

You don't understand how this "works."

S&P is dropping because of the potential that Trump might win (albeit a very low probability right now, but still). I falling market indicates the incumbent party might lose. Well, of course, until that is no longer true.

Too bad there isn't a Redskins game this Sunday, otherwise that would be the only indicator that most morons need. :D

(apparently, it refers to the most recent home game prior to the election: which means that Hillary will win this year. Hey, at least it tracks closely with pretty much all of the accurate data that is out there).

Looks like we're in for "interesting times" going by the Redskins Rule.

Apparently, the Incumbent party wins when the Redskins win their last home game, and the opposition party win when the Redskins lose their last home game.

The last game the Redskins played was in London, and ended in a tie.

Oh shit...

well, the last actual home game was a win, so....

Saw this on Newshour today:

For 8 consecutive WS that have gone to 7 games during a presidential election year:

AL team wins: GOP candidate wins the presidency
NL team wins: The Democrat wins

God bless the Cubs.

Right. But it's more fun to ponder the rule when the beloved patriot's last game wasn't a home or away game, and nobody won the damn thing. I.E. something totally unknown.

That said, congrats to the Cubs, not that I give any shits.
