When the world of politics and sports collide, it's usually because the politician wants to look good in front of a crowd. For example, if a politician was running to be the Governor of Texas he would say, "Go Cowboys" or whatever town's team he's in. It's what we call a "cheap pop" in the wrestling world.

Nice job Ted, I'm sure you've got their votes.
