with Seabiscuit...as in long shots can and do win.
Seabiscuit became a symbol of hope for lots and lots of Americans during the Great Depression.
The owner of the horse played this up by noting that Seabiscuit had been discounted and when he was given a chance, he could do great things.
This was meant to be a message to those who had been destroyed by the republican economy of the thirties.
btw, Dubya has the worse job creation record during his term of office save for one...Hoover.
