Democrats & Obama Support Saints at Super Bowl - Team Betrays Party E-mail

saintsdemsObama's approval ratings are getting lower by the hour, the healthcare bill is nowhere near ready to be signed into law, and poor Teddy Kennedy was replaced with a PlayGirl model. But at least the party on the left can come together to focus on the important issues, one of which being their support of the New Orleans Saints.

According to Politico.com, Democrats are rooting for the New Orleans Saints by a 15-point margin.

However, this stands in stark contrast to the Saints' organization political giving history which is primarily Republican, with the exception of Jonathan Vilma who has donated thousands to the Democratic Party. Even after the horror that was Katrina, the Saints organization joins Peyton Manning in continuing to support those who were ready to make their home town the new "Atlantis".

In a recent interview with Diane Sawyer, Obama, not offended by this extreme betrayal, supports the Saints and their "Yes We Can" attitude.  An underdog himself and a big fan of Drew Brees, POTUS will be rocking the gold and black this Sunday in honor of the spirited city and their team.

The observations above were submitted by an avid Xtra Point Football reader. As always, if you the reader have something coherent to say, we'll publish it. - Xtra Point Football does not have any political affiliation.

If you haven't voted in our polls on the site yet please do so. We are trying to get a feel for how our readers are looking at Football so we can write about things they want to hear. The poll questions are:

"Do you think the NCAA should have a Playoff to determine the National Champion rather than the BCS / Bowl System?"

and

"Should the NFL adopt the NCAA method of Overtime or continue to flip a coin for possession and have sudden death?"

There is no place for politics in sports. People may think games are fixed.
