Bush (and the country) sure did embrace the <I>women's</I> soccer team when they kept proving they were the best in the world.<BR/><BR/>He and his base are a lot like Homer Simpson. Remember the episode where the 'Topes won the pennant? Homer went from talking about how bad they sucked to pretending to be their biggest fan.<BR/><BR/>For both crowds, it all boils down to one thing -- the ability to scream "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

The vote came in at 56% No and 44% Yes. So if you compare that to the recent Presidential election which I believe was 51/49, then all Republicans and some Democrats don't like soccer. (Note: Logic in interpreting poll is subject to +/- 100% margin of error).pebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01434129386507788121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13930960.post-1134337632071382822005-12-11T16:47:00.000-05:002005-12-11T16:47:00.000-05:00Do you know of somewhere I can find a graphical br...<I>Do you know of somewhere I can find a graphical bracket for the World Cup?</I><BR/><BR/>I'd try the <A HREF="http://football.guardian.co.uk/" REL="nofollow">website</A> of a European news outlet, since Americans don't care.
