*********4TH ANNUAL DU COLLEGE FOOTBALL POOL: WEEK 9*********

[Condem]

Okay. It came to me at dinner that we have some world class predictors here. So why not apply their skills to the election, two weeks
hence? A little homework, if you may. On top of your football picks this week, consider a tougher challenge. Pick the winner of the upcoming FORWARD election. But....Popular vote %'s AND Electoral College outcome. An example: Obama: 52%- Romney 48%. Electoral: Obama 270- Romney 268. In by noon EDT Saturday. Winner get's BOTTLE of their choice sent to them (within reason-even you, anakie). So pickers...let's get pickin'!!!
