Gee, this is one of the few things I agree with Ming on: Sometimes elections are stolen.

"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." - Stalin

You've used that quote already in this thread. Also, you have an unhealthy fixation on Joseph Stalin.

Comrade Tassadar is intrigued by your ideas, and interested in subscribing to your newsletter.

Due to exit poll, CNN is projecting Strickland the winner on CNN.com, we'll see how that holds up.

[Guynemer]

If it doesn't hold up, I'm calling shenanagins. Strickland has been whooping Blackwell's ass in the polls by >15% for months now.

[Impaler[WrG]]

Agreed, exit polling has been discredited (unjustifiably in my opinion) but theirs no way it can be off by a 15%, its just not statisticaly possible.

so guys, what should be realpolitic's new avatar? I'm open to suggestions...

[DinoDoc]

I'd go with a picture of some conservative icon.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Hell, just put up a picture of GW Bush posing... maybe in a flightsuit.

I was thinking about Ann Coulter and a pink text of "my love! <3" under her chin but then again man with a tinfoil hat of some-sort would be a more fitting explanation of his posting history (good for newbies, altough poly doesn't have a lot of those). And then there's the option of poking fun towards the irony of his username.

Either this or Bush II would be great.

[realpolitic]

Ok, I'm so happy to get rid of these creeps, I'd have sex with Ann Coulter. I'm just happy that they've gone down.

Assuming people answer truthfully

A ways back, the famous (now dead) columnist Mike Royko was pissed at the exit polls, and told people to lie to them. Now, many people in this city do just that, and then derive pleasure from watching the predictions

[realpolitic]

In regards to the bet, I'm still waiting for a PM from VJ with an avatar he wants. However, in an attempt to keep good faith, until he does, here is an Ann Coulter avatar. I have chosen it in accordance with one of the important values that some feminists hold, not only equality, but androgony.

As for DinoDoc, you're one spam away from making my ignore list.
