Yankees fall to "Carpetbagger Curse"

For the fifth time in as many years, the New York Yankees will not win the World Series. They were eliminated from the playoffs yesterday when they lost a five-game series to the Los Anaheim California Angels.

The Yanks' last world championship came in October 2000, just before Hillary Clinton, who falsely claimed to have been a lifelong Yankee fan, won a Senate seat. This is known as the "Carpetbagger Curse"--though at least it's not as bad as Boston's "Curse of the Bimbino."

The Red Sox, also eliminated the other day, have won only one World Series in the rocky 21 years since Massachusetts elected John Kerry** to the Senate.
