[quote:Anonymous Coward 20250843:MV8yMDQxMDA5XzM0MzA4MDUyX0FGNEU4ODcz] yes, but what about the "Redskin Rule"? [/quote]
Original Message
Every time the Lakers make it to the NBA finals prior to an election year a Republican takes office, however if the Lakers fail to make the finals prior to an election year a Democrat will take office..This year the Lakers did not make it to the finals which means Obama will be the president for the next 4 years..
