Psychic animals: Just about every election and sporting event has at least one animal predicting its outcome. This year, Gnocchi, a squirrel in South Carolina, ate more nuts from a Romney bowl than an Obama bowl, thus predicting a Romney victory. (Gnocchi was nuts for Obama in 2008.) On another animal-related note, professional pooper scooper Jim Coniglione predicts Romney will win because he’s picked up more dog doo that looks like Romney than Obama lately.
