Allawi: "Red Sox looking good"

Iraqi Prime Minister Ayad Allawi told reporters that he likes the Red Sox' chances to win the World Series this year. In particular the Iraqi Prime Minister thinks the Sox can sweep the vaunted in this weekend's three game series in Boston. John Kerry retorted that the Prime Minister is painting "too rosy a picture" of the 2004 Red Sox who have looked "absolutely pitiful" against the Orioles and last weekend against the Yankees. Kerry then went on to express that he has a plan for the Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs to finally win World Series during his presidency.

Other teams that Allawi claimed to look good include the Kansas City Royals, Arizona Diamondbacks and Seattle Mariners. Allawi feels that any of these teams will win the World Series this year.
