Democrats suck at sports. Nyaaaaaaah! I really liked having John Kerry trying to look "average" by sucking at sports - football, soccer, and windsurfing (?).
Seriously, maybe this has something to do with the fact that Republicans are typically conservatives, and rewarding achievement is an important part of conservative philosophy - in a nutshell, conservatives want the game to be played correctly (fidelity to systems, my friend), so there must be a winner and a loser. Democrats are liberals who seek to have everybody as equal as possible, so penalizing achievement is an important part of that.
There is no other arena where achievement is so clearly defined as that of the sports world.

I'm actually still surprised Democrats haven't instituted affirmative action in the world of professional athletics yet.
Oh wait, the minorities are most successful in the most successful sports of the country (football, basketball).
