I like Kerry's quote. Immediately after the game ended, Kerry said, "I couldn't be more thrilled with the Packers win today. This streak started with Herbert Hoover, and will continue this week when George Bush, the only president since Hoover to lose jobs, loses his. When the Redskins get beat before the election, the incumbent loses. The Packers have done their part, this Tuesday, we'll do ours."

Here's the breakdown of the Washington Redskins vs. the President...

How the Washington Redskins franchise fared the game before presidential elections, and the elections' outcomes:

2004: Green Bay 28, Redskins 14... Republicans lose White House (John Kerry to defeat George W. Bush)

2000: Tennessee 27, Redskins 21... Democrats lose White House (George W. Bush defeats Al Gore)

1996: Redskins 31, Indianapolis 16... Democrats keep it (Bill Clinton defeats Bob Dole)

1992: New York Giants 24, Redskins 7... Republicans lose it (Clinton defeats George H.W. Bush)

1988: Redskins 27, New Orleans 24... Republicans keep it (Bush defeats Michael Dukakis)

1984: Redskins 27, Atlanta 14... Republicans keep it (Ronald Reagan defeats Walter Mondale)
