We are all Illinoisians (is that the right term?) Imagine Obama AND a Cubs win!!!

[Taverner]

That is, Cubs win the WS, breaking the 'curse'

And Obama gets elected

How does that sound for a Chicagogasm????

1. I was actually talking about this to a friend last night....

Could you imagine a White Sox/Cubs WS? The crosstown classic of the century? And combining that with an Obama win?

I can't even fathom the extent of the chaos if that were the case. :)

2. I would fly to Chicago, despite the weather, to celebrate somewhere in there

3. Barack is a White Sox fan. That's who should be in the Series.

Cubs will fail like they always do. This Illinoisan doesn't expect or want the Cubs to pollute the world series with their presence.

9. Heh

:thumbsup:

We're not all Cubs fans, yanno...

[Taverner]

11. But you have Cubbies in California

Some of us like heartbreak.

4. proud Illinoisian here

[Iggo]

5. Boo, Cubs! Boo!

After what the rest of Cubs nation did to that kid, Steve Bartman, forget it. I root against the Cubs for all eternity.

6. sox -cubs world series

i`d pleased pleased as punch if obama becomes the president. be nice to rub it in to all the republicans out here in ronnyland.

actually there`s hundreds of democratic candidate`s signs out here and only a few hundred or so republicans.....if we can pull it off that would be northern illinoisgasm !

10. Chicago needs that

Especially since they'll be riding the crest of a Chicago WS, and in the darkest days of the midwestern weather - Obama wins.

People put on their polypropylene flannels and go out and party.

You know President Obama will want to party there!

7. The curse of the Billy Goat lives

[coffeenap]

8. They just won now in extra innings! So, on we go!

[bigwillq]

12. I will root for Obama

but not the Cubs! :P ;) :)

[Redstone]

13. As a lifelong New Englander, I would cheer for the Cubs in the World Series. Even if they

played against the Sox.

Cubs fans have suffered FAR too long.

14. I'd gladly give up a Cubs win for an Obama win, if we can only get one.

I'd gladly have the Cubs never win another game ever if it somehow assured and Obama win.

However, both would be pretty cool. Talk about pigs flying!

[PeaceNikki]

15. Oh, and it's Illinoisans

A bit superfluous on the "i's".

[terrya]

16. That will be nice.

I hope. I guess.
