I thought Obama was supposed to win this one "comfortably".

Maybe this is what Walt was alluding to with his "Empire Business" statment.
Also, crime rates go up, shorts get shorter, and cola becomes caffeinated.
Not always a good thing. Sometime you cry out and shield your eyes.

And....
The *** kissing for votes continues...

I wonder what the reaction would be if Romney said that he'd take any legislation proposed to be evaluated by some Quorum of the Twelve according to its impact on religious freedom?
Food for thought

Yeah, that would be bad, I'd think.
However, most Christian values are fairly well aligned, even with drastic doctrinal differences.

Geez Luis Carlos Sarmiento, a Provo dig and I didn't even notice for two weeks? That's usually one of my most reactionary topics. Shows how much I care about politics these days. I love Provo, but I'd trade about 20,000-30,000 people that are overly crusty here for some Germans though. Now there's a group of people that have taken their lumps throughout history well. Very cool people if you judge them as a collective whole in my experience.
But yes, amazing things do happen when you leave Provo. Like surfing. Surfing. Surfing. and Surfing.
Good to know that it is only Repubs that *** kiss for votes.
Agreed, sometimes it's painful to see. Usually it has nothing to do with the short length though....
I was born in Provo, and sometimes like to take a dig at the short rule on BYU campus. I was a kid, and was told I couldn't bowl because my shorts were above my knee.
It's a rule I get, but it's also hilarious on the other hand to to stop a 10 year old with shorts barely above the knee.
I guess they had the draw the line somewhere
I posted about this in Pearl's thread but this is being reported completely incorrectly. The model has not existed since 1980. One of the model's authors was a junior in college in 1980. The other was in middle school. It's a brand new model that would retroactively have predicted outcomes correctly in elections since 1980. Of course those outcomes had already occurred when they were making the model so they've really just fitted the model to past results. To date the model has predicted not a single election.
For serious! Read the paper yourself: https://polisci.colorado.edu/images/s...12forecast.pdf
EDIT: One of the paper's authors has acknowledged that the model did not successfully "predict" any previous elections.

This makes a lot of sense. I apologize for not investigating this more before posting.
You wouldn't be able to quote me on that .. you would, however, find plenty I have said about my general distrust for the media. I think it's less of a partisan thing and more of a get-clicks-at-any-cost thing.
