    Nov 4: Washington Redskins host the Carolina Panthers

    Since 1936, if the Redskins win their last home game before the general election - the incumbent party in the White House stays - if the Redskins lose, the opposing party moves into 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

    Except in 2004.

    Still, that's 17-1.

    So a Redskins victory indicates Obama is reelected - lose and Romney wins.

    Should be helluva game!
    RG3's for real and should win them some more games....
    But the Redskins Defense can be hot and cold.
    Cam Newton can be sensational (when he's not throwing interceptions).
    .....from the games I've seen so far....
    Welcome back President Obama!
