I assume he's referring to the post-Denver polls, when the right decided that losing less badly constituted winning.

Ah - posting from an unskewed reality, as it were.

You don't calculate based on the total population. You calculate on the total number of voters. Try again.

Wrong. Apathy won in this election -- look how many fewer votes Obama got in 2012 than he had in 2008 and that was with a very marked increase in total population and his major pandering to the illegals for their votes.

It really comes down to many fewer than 3 million -- because of the electoral votes and the so-called swing states. It's only the voters in those swing states that got him elected -- and some of those were quite close.

With all the damage Obama is doing to the economy and how little he cares about the American people, the midterm elections may be interesting. The welfare crowd obviously believes that spending can just keep going up and up and up and Obama can destroy the taxpaying class and all will be great.

Residents In All 50 States File Petitions To Secede From United States
No state has succeeded in secession for 150 years. Even Rick Perry said he doesn't support Texas seceding lol. What a bunch of whiny babies these petitioners are. Their petitions will go completely ignored.

Shocking, just shocking, this poll basically points out that there are a handful of idiots in every state that is upset that they didn't get their way and actually lost an election. I wonder if these same idiots abandon their favorite sports teams when they don't win the championship game.

Did the poll ask them if they're sports fans?
