Well, when the current "liberal" position is to sue telemarketing firms as a primary source of income, it's rather difficult not to, wouldn't you say?  In any case, the only liberal being bashed here seems to be able to take for himself just fine.

What's wrong with suing telemarketing firms? Those firms need to take it up the ass once in a while to make their lives more exciting. Besides, it provides employment to lawyers.

The election was decided mainly on social issues.



Anybody know where this image is from. I can't remember.

It's from that OK Cupid political test, the one that also had the pictures of various figures.

What is the population for this graphic? Is each dot supposed to be a representative voter?

Ok, but how did they generate it? Exit poll results?

It's a test like the Political Compass test.

I think what he's asking is how they knew where every single voter stands on the political compass.

They know where everyone who took the test stands.

If it's just a total of all the people who took their test online, then it doesn't say very much about the whole country. I imagine those who would most likely be polarized economically are not likely to go online with an internet connection to take a test like that. Still interesting, but doesn't say anything conclusive.
