One lesson to learn from this thread -

There's stupid and then there's BushOK stupid.

Does BushOklahoma use drugs for recreational purposes?

Its called Coca-Cola!!!

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

No. The state is an illegal, immoral institution and should thus not have the power to take the life of any individual.

His posts are more insightful, clever and witty with the time and he is a welcome way of disturbing a certain consensus here, but not in a nasty or boring or attention-whoring way as some others.

FF !

I'm not sure how you got confused, or who you're actually referring to, but in this thread we're discussing the forum member called Winston Disraeli.

I havent seen the toplines yet, but I suspect, like with all Gallup polls, they are still oversampling democrats by more than 5 pts as the true partisan gap is never greater than 6pts and the gap is probably less considering that is usually the bottom level of support.  So subtract 5pts from whatever dems are getting in Gallup polls and you get the real result, R +2.

What are the chances that some Naderite candidate capitalizes on the vocal minority of liberals who are disappointed with Obama and throws a close election to the Republican by winning 5% of the vote?

Less than the odds that you had to wipe off your keyboard after posting this wankery.

Super-FF.  He is a great man who I believe history will redeem in the end.

I saw a History Channel special about the White House taped last year and nearly broke down in tears wishing that George and Laura were still it's custodians.

Rob's response was funny, but the post it was in reply to was impossible to top in the humor department.

Seriously focusing on the Fourth of July in DECEMBER?

You know don't bitch about the system hamilton. Work with the system. You wouldn't have such a hard time if you did.

The system is ridiculous when it's targetting good posters like myself and Einzige yet letting aggressive trolls like Lief and Marokai walk free.

Every bit is funny but the bold is just...

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

It's called a prediction.

Jim Webb just said, no Omamascare until Brown is seated. 

"Omamascare"?  Really?

You have to give the 2nd-graders a mark for originality there.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Not healthy for the nation.

True.  Obama should drop his left-wing whacko policies and return to the mainstream.

Have you been paying attention to anything that's been happening in the past twelve months?

Yes. The Democrats won the race for Shelby County Assessor.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

No, but I think Goodfellas is.

Isn't that the one with huge amounts of profanity? I never saw that one.

I thought it was funny just due to the thought of trying to classify a mob movie as "the one with huge amounts of profanity" Might as well ask if it's the one with guns in it.

We already have neanderthals dwelling among us. Some of them post on this site.

That's not a very nice thing to say about yourself.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

You should tell them about JSojourner

click for context.

Classic rocket randomness plus the whole inside joke factor.

Stalin was worse than Hitler. Period.

Even if he was (by some silly attempt to objectively calculate such things), we didn't go to war with Hitler because he was "worse" than Stalin, we went to war with him because he was immediately threatening to turn the world into a smoldering ruin.

We went to war with Hitler because we were manipulated into it by a regime with Soviet sympathies.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Hilarious but true sarcasm:

Actually, could be a very strong candidate.

I agree with you J.J., Dan Senor for N.Y. Senator as a Republican is so much stronger than former Lt. Gov. Mark Singel for PA-12 as a Democrat.

No, I cried when the McCain/Palin bubble burst in late September 2008

Little known historical fact: After his narrow 1824 loss in the House to John Q. Adams, Andrew Jackson vowed to never have an election stolen from him again. Deciding that the only way to fight fire was with more fire, he founded the Democratic Party and its private arm ACORN, determined to steal the next election. Thanks to massive voting fraud (ACORN reportedly "found" over 300,000 votes for Mr. Jackson), he prevailed and went on to win re-election with ACORN's help. In the 1830 midterms, Jackson realized that ACORN could steal congressional races as well, resulting in the first Democratic congressman. ACORN and the Democratic party have been working together ever since, ensuring that the true voice of the people is ignored and Republicans are defeated.

I had something like that about a year ago. All posters involved are now banned.

This is so not worth a thread.

Consider the source.

I'm more annoyed by how many people in real life tell me their IQ is something ridiculous like 180.

Really?  I think it's funnier on Atlas when people brag about, say, their Mensa-level IQ, while simultaneously acting stupid to the point of ridiculousness.  

I'm not thinking of anyone, but if I were, their initials would probably match.

Read this whole thread now:
https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=114348.0

It gets better and better.

I do hope that someone saves it for posterity. Have a feeling that Dave might delete it as soon as he sees it.

Sure, he'll delete it and probably put Einzige back on mod review for, what, the sixth time?  Instead of the long overdue ban, of course.

I think the sixth time is what eventually resulted in Hamilton being taken out.
