Fortune teller talks politics and sports
PHOENIX - The political pundits have pored over the poll numbers over and over, so we thought we'd tap into a less obvious source of information: Horoscopes.
The zodiac says Obama, a Leo, could have an irritating night, and should say what's on his mind. Don't think that'll be a problem.
And Romney, a Pisces, will discover information coming at him in all forms and should use it to his advantage. Well, yes, that's what you do in a debate.
Who really knows about the future of our country?
At The List, our mind reading powers are limited and sadly, the Magic 8 Ball can only answer yes or no questions, so we went in search of a real fortune teller. At the Vision Quest Metaphysical Bookstore, we found Geri Young.
"Right now, I'm in the zone with you, and I just feel the answers are very strong," Young said.
We started with an easy 50/50 question, like who is going to win the coin toss.
"Obama," she replied immediately.
How heated is tonight's debate going to be?
"There will be a little more calm in the room," Young replied.
Bob Schieffer is the moderator. Is he going to draw attention to himself or be low key?
"I think he will be a little more subdued," she said. "He is looking away while these two interact with each other," she said, pointing to the Tarot cards.
But just in case. . .if there were a fist fight that broke out between the two candidates, who would win?
"Mitt Romney," she responded.
Then, it was time to switch things up a bit, and ask the question everyone wants the anser to: what's ahead for Honey Boo Boo?
"Oh, therapy," Young said. "She actually wins a lot of people over because she has an honest disposition."
Who do you see winning the World Series?
"It's raining. It's in their stadium. I see the Giants," Young said.
For now though, we'll see which presidential hopeful comes ready to play ball.
