Here's the thing. You said "New Hampshire is a swing state."

Is it a state? Yes. No one's arguing that.

As someone who is a psephologist who studies New Hampshire, I am telling you, specifically, in psephology, no one calls New Hampshire a swing state. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.

If you're saying "swing state" you're referring to the electoral grouping of states that actually swing, which includes things from Colorado to Florida to Ohio.

So your reasoning for calling a New Hampshire a swing state is because random people "call the ones with split congressional delegations swing states?" Let's get Missouri and Montana in there, then, too.

Also, calling someone a New Hampshire women or a bitch? It's not one or the other, that's not how Newhampshirology works. They're both. A New Hampshire is a New Hampshire and a member of the split delegations family. But that's not what you said. You said a New Hampshire is a swing state, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the split delegation family swing states, which means you'd call North Dakota and other states swing states, too. Which you said you don't.

It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?

ROFL.

On a serious note, I'd support a ban on him talking about New Hampshire.

He's a good guy, but his obsession with NH is beyond ridiculous.

I mean with the exception of the angry women stuff, he's basically right.  New Hampshire is a Democratic state and trending moreso.  I can understand his frustration too.  There are lots of stupid things that get repeated here a lot.  If I have to see one more post about how Asians are all wealthy "fiscool conservative, social liberoools" again or how West Virginia flipped because "muh environmentalism" or how the South flipped because of the Civil Rights Act or gajillions of other sh**tty conventional Atlas wisdom things...

Incredibly misogynistic.

Also, great post, CrabCake.

If New Hampshire is sexist because a man hasn't been elected Governor or Senator since 2010, then I want to know how sexist Mississippi, the only remaining state in which a woman hasn't been elected to the House, Senate, or the Governorship, is.

That's the reason I don't care. It's highly doubtful that New Hampshire is still a true swing state, and the state government would probably be even more blue had Republicans not had full control of redistricting in 2011. With Trump on the ticket this year, I wouldn't be surprised if NH Republicans lose everything they currently have.

So if he wants to ramble on about this, that's fine by me Tongue

The fact that he brings it into any topic of conversation as a non-sequitur is an indication that he's really just trolling.

I don't think it's even trolling so much as practically begging for attention.

Next thing he'll be claiming Hispanic is a separate race on the Census.

This. It's hard to get attention on a forum like this unless (a) you're a really, really good poster, (b) you're part of an unusual demographic group for the forum, or (c) you have some really bizarre opinions that you talk about a lot. TN volunteer doesn't fall into either of the first two categories, so he goes full self-parody on the third one.

Is there anything wrong with that, though?

Didn't that altercation happen in 2007?

FT of course. What's wrong with you that you'd vote HT?

BRTD hasn't been to Dudefest in years; it didn't stop him from making all those threads about it during the Indiana primaries.

That's because the final Dude Fest was in 2011. But I haven't been to Indiana since.

I can see NH trending Dem to at least Maine levels by 2030. But the theory that a racist, fascist cult run by Maggie Hassan is out to execute all men, including him, and vote Clinton in as Eternal Leader of Femerica gets annoying after the first three or so posts.
