Honestly, that's about the same map I'd produce for that scenario.

This is one of the reasons why I don't start talking trash until after a result is certain.

Tonight is one night I'm staying in and celebrating.  Lots of shouting and screaming going on outside.

I was not talking trash. Just read the damn posts - It was simply my prediction.

Doing a play-by-play prediction of a Pats win is talking trash in my book.  Smiley

With luck, all of Mike's posts in this thread will go into the Comedy Goldmine in a few hours. Wink

If the Giants win, that might enough incentive for me to leave the forum.

And btw, what was this???  Tongue  Not that you should leave, at all, however.

Eh..I've thinking about it for over a week now. Forum's lost it's touch. I needed one last blast to leave out on! This might be it.

I'm 80/20 in favor of taking a step back.

How ARG conducts their polling:

First, numbers are picked randomly out of a hat


Then, through a contract with the local school district, third grade students are told to take the numbers and use them as variables in the "The Supersecret Highly Intelligent Turnout formula", hereafter known as The S.H.I.T. formula


It doesn't matter if they do the math correctly - that's what the margin of error is for

ARG then randomly calls a number determined by The S.H.I.T. formula. Racial turnout is based upon what color pen the third-graders used


ARG then subtracts 7 from one of the candidates totals, 'cause 7 is their lucky number

NOTE: ARG is currently considering switching to a new polling methodology involving bloodhounds, a bundle of bananas, and a bingo parlor off I-67

Disturbing.



Obama as the nominee (not final):



Obama:  303

McCain:  235
Though admittedly this map makes me a little hard

Inks, do we have to have fifty seperate threads for each Zoggy (or whatever) poll dump?

Considering that we've had 14 responses for the California one alone, I'd say yes.
Owned. Both Clinton and Al. This thread is a double whammy!

Yes, but no toilet break is planned into the schedule.

It either isn't worth mentioning (unlike, say, ordering biscuits from McDonalds), or isn't necessary.  I'll opt for the latter.

Let's just say that at the end of the day, you'll definitley have 100% of precincts reporting.

They'll be recounting me all day long.

Although really that whole thread, inspirational BRTD quote included, belongs here.

My response was funnier Tongue

"That's what she said" is never funny Tongue

We could never be friends.

That's what she said.

I was baking scones at 4. I think anyone, even an American, can do it at 25.

I was referring to taking a dump or a whiz, not baking scones.

Obviously. This is me, not BRTD. I was referring to the fact that he's 25 and picking up scones from Maccas on a weekday morning, which would be tragic if it was a timesaving measure, but considering he's going out of his way to pick them up and then he's going home, is moreso.
