Very tough...it doesn't help that both are both incredibly dense in different ways.

Oldiesfreak isn't really impervious to "logic" and "reason", just evidence he doesn't like.
JJ is.
Answer is obvious.

Although he does have problems with logic as well, assuming he's real. See Oldies arguments on the Electoral College.

Oldies is only really dense about the "historical revisionism" issue isn't he? J.J. is impervious to logic on a whole host of things.

Just about everybody on here is impervious to "logic and reason" (I.e. facts they don't like.)

Unlike the mentioned two, I have admitted to being wrong on multiple occasions. The two here are quite similar to the store clerk in the Monty Python dead parrot sketch.

JJ is the grand champ.

I really haven't paid any attention to the other guy though.

Oldies seems to be more insistent on his ridiculous views, no?  Doesn't J.J. at least drop the argument after a certain point, then move on to the next absurdity?

Your views are the ones that are ridiculous and absurd based on logic and reason.

He basically argues that the record of Democrats on civil rights over 50 years ago and Abraham Lincoln are the main reasons you should vote Republican today. Also apparently the Southern Strategy was an anti-racist strategy aimed at attracting pro-civil rights moderates.

Let me see here:

- A likely above average intelligence poster whose only forum crime is being a party hack and ignoring modern history and letting sentimentalism guide his political thought process?

or

- A poster who butchers the understanding of polls?

How can it not be JJ?  Say what you want about Oldiesfreak, he at least occasionally notes that he is prone to bias and bases his observations out of some sort of logic and reason.
One cannot say the same about the analytical skills of JJ.

But that's true.  It would have made no sense for the GOP to pander to racists in 1968 because George Wallace was running.  And I have plenty of other reasons to vote Republican today that are more recent.
