The Obama curse?
Some of you may have heard, there was a football game last night. If you hadn’t yet heard, you need to come out from underneath your rock.
Since America cannot seem to get away from our narcissist-in-chief, I suppose it was to be expected that he would definetely have to be interviewed for his take on the Super Bowl. Katie Couric got the “honor”.
And then, it happened. President Obama went on the record with his pick to win. The Indianapolis Colts and Peyton Manning.
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said Sunday that the Indianapolis Colts “have to be favored” in the Super Bowl, even though he has a “soft spot” for the New Orleans Saints.
Obama’s Super Bowl prediction was based on his opinion that the Colts have “perhaps the best quarterback in history.”
“Peyton Manning is unbelievable,” the president told CBS’ Katie Couric during a live pregame interview.
Still, Obama said he has a soft spot for New Orleans, “mainly because of what the city has gone through over these last several years” since Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005.
Obama said he might be biased against the Colts since they beat his hometown Chicago Bears in Super Bowl XLI.
The Colts were doomed from that point forward.
In possibly related stories, Obama also picked a Martha Coakley victory, a Creigh Deeds victory, and a Jon Corzine victory. Add the Colts into the mix and we seem to have a trend.
There has been no confirmation thus far of any statements coming out of the White House blaming Bush for the inaccurate pick by the President, but we will stay vigilant. It shouldn’t take long.
Just an observation, you decide!
Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints!!

Well, he did pick the Tar Heels to win in \’09, and as a UNC fan, I was quite delighted when they won.
Of course, given the way Carolina is playing *this* year, maybe the Obama Curse took a little longer than expected.
Haha! That was awesome!
. Let\’s hope this curse keeps up, and we might just survive his presidency!
