the afternoon rooting for John Kerry. (May WI females too, of course, but I'm less worried about the ladies, vote-wise) These little things add up... (I remember the Brazilian stock market rallying in the 1990s when they won the World Cup.)
It's not that any Packer-fan Bush supporter is saying "I will now vote for Kerry."
