First of all, birthday wishes of the day to cafemusique.
I’m not a real big sports person; I’ll go to perhaps an occasional baseball game. Yet I noticed an interesting parallel in the World Series parings that I made in a comment last night, and I want to explore more now.
The Boston Red Sox won the AL pennant, after 86 years. John Kerry is from Boston, and we haven’t had a president from Boston in over 40 years.
One potential NL winner is the Houston Astros, from Texas. George W Bush is from Texas.
If the World Series paring ends up being Boston vs. Texas, is this a harbinger for the election itself? If so, go Sox!
