You know how to figure out who's going to win most of the time? The Redskins Rule...

quote:

For 17 of the past 19 United States presidential elections, a win for the Redskins' last home game prior to Election Day coincided with the incumbent party winning re-election. The exceptions were in 2004, when the Republican Party incumbent George W. Bush won re-election despite the Green Bay Packers beating the Redskins, and again in 2012, when Barack Obama retained the presidency on November 6, despite the Redskins losing to the Carolina Panthers on November 4, 21–13. Other than these exceptions, this "Redskins Rule" has proven true since 1936 when they won and incumbent Franklin D. Roosevelt won re-election, prior to the Redskins' move from Boston in 1937.

Interesting. The break in the rule allowed the 2 worst presidents in that term to get re-election.
