Tom, Say it Ain’t So!

I just learned yesterday that Congressman Tom Tancredo has issued a challenge to Mitt Romney.  If The Rockies win the World Series, Romney drops out of the race for President.  If the Redsox win, Tancredo drops out. 

 As a Boston Redsox fan, Tom, I ask you – don’t do it!  I feel so torn.  Must I leave Redsox nation for the sake of the entire nation?  Why must you make me choose.  Besides that, there is no way the Rockies can win!  Tom, take it back!

Of course, Mitt Romney being a good politician, simply ignored the challenge.  I hope that means Tom stay in, we need him too much!

Here is the official Team Tancredo press release:

Tancredo Issues Challenge to Romney
Rockies vs. Red Sox, loser drops out

(Washington, D.C.) – Presidential candidate Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO) today issued a challenge to fellow candidate Gov. Mitt Romney today.

“Governor Romney, I propose we make a bet on the World Series.” Tancredo said. “I will agree to drop out of the race if the Red Sox win on the condition that you will agree to drop out if the Rockies win.”

This comes a week after Tancredo challenged Romney to a trap shooting contest in New Hampshire, with the loser to drop out of the race.
