Since 90% of the political posts on off topic is rightwing BS, this "guy's BS" is simply an attempt at fair and balanced.

And your succeeding, Hcap!  The info in your charts is rarely disputed - it's usually a shoot the messenger response that is posted.
Did you notice my lame effort with the Vegas visitor stats? A graph would have worked better than the actual stats but my computer skills are comparable to those of a bottom level maiden claimer.

The presentation of data was fine, it was the conclusion that was questionable. Boy oh boy, now I get the graph thing.

NJ, I have cut my time spent on OT due to the idiocy rampant on the other side. Honestly I found the various Occupy threads venomous.
But every once in a while I like to stir the pot.
Graphs particularly annoy the righties for some strange reason. But I see you and Mosty are socking it to 'em. Keep up the good work.

hclap, mostly & NJ ain't got nothin' on the Three Stooges.

Elections are won in the states. Right now it looks like a bloodbath.
His approval is 52% in the East.
And 40% in the South.
And 40% in the West.
And 40% in the Midwest.
Now Gallup did not define those regions. But Real Clear listed 8 states that look to be tossups, and only one of them can be defined as East (except by the commissioner of the Big East football conference who think Idaho is in the East): Colorado (9), Florida (29), New Hampshire (4), North Carolina (15), Ohio (18), Pennsylvania (20), Virginia (13) and Wisconsin (10).
That’s 114 Electoral College votes right there (not counting New Hampshire) and added to the 191 Electoral College votes that Real Clear Politics says Republicans will take, that is 305 votes — well above the 70 needed to make Barack Obama a one-term president.

I understand completely, Hcap. You've been at this a lot longer than we have and the light at the end of the tunnel is not getting any closer - if you know what I mean.
Of course, you know what I mean!

Gee, seeing how hcap was one of the core left that set the standards for politics in OT, I can't understand how it was OK for 8 years and now suddenly it is not.
Must be the right has more fortitude than the left.

I already have several higher-end wagers going for Nov of this year.
hcap looks confident enough to want in. What say?
