Romney’s NCAA bracket beating Obama’s

Mitt Romney may have lost the 2012 presidential election, but he’s easily beating President Obama in another closely-watched event: March Madness. 

The former Massachusetts governor’s bracket, which was shared with the Huffington Post over the weekend, is in the 99.98th percentile. Meanwhile, the president, widely known to be a basketball fan, is in the 40th percentile. 

{mosads}Romney correctly picked six of the Elite Eight teams, and the two teams who would play in the NCAA championship: Wisconsin and Duke. 

Obama predicted that Kentucky, which was defeated by Wisconsin on Saturday, would win the tournament.

The president fared substantially better during last year’s March Madness tournament when his bracket finished in the 72nd percentile.
