Nothing to do with sports except for the term "hockey stick"

When I saw the headline for This story I was very excited to have found another sports and politics story. It describes "hockey stick moments" in campaigns.

But as I read on, I came to realize that it had nothing to do with sports. Rather, a hockey stick moment is a graphical image -- when a candidate's popularity goes from a flatline to a sharp rise (as in the shape of a hockey stick).

Still, it's an interesting read.
