My Favorite World Cup Philosopher, Soccertese

I hate Ken Rudin for coming up with a soccer line funnier than mine.
From his “Political Junkie” column:
The World Cup seems to be the only thing people care about lately; for all I know, these people could become the latest voting bloc. I know that’s already the case in Japan; there, they are called Osaka Moms.
That jokes makes it a soccer-style blow out, 1-0.
political junkie All Things Rudin sports Soccer? I hardly knew her! FIFA FOFUM -- I Smell Blood Of An Englismon

Sometimes we’re not convinced of something until we see the fact smack us in the face via a poll. The latest Diageo/Hotline poll does that on the question of whether voters view ‘06 as a chance to “send a message.”
– 84% of regis. voters agreed (54% strongly) that they would use their vote for Congress, in part, to “[send] a message to the country’s current leadership.” The numbers were consistent across party lines. We also found that a plurality of voters said their candidate choice would be based on that person’s nat’l positions. And the poll also found that 100% of Dora fans want Diego to stay in the USA: after all, Dora’s having his baby!
