If only they had done the same with Obama. <BR/><BR/>So many people are entirely too busy these days. They get their news and are educated about politics in bits and pieces. If the media cannot be trusted, then how are many of the voters to be trusted when it comes to being educated about the issues and voting accordingly?Paul Eilershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443012393151401891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877655127944205011.post-88435075814889810852008-11-18T14:29:00.000-06:002008-11-18T14:29:00.000-06:00Right up until the day of the election, I knew ind...Right up until the day of the election, I knew individuals who had no idea which party was in control of Congress for the last 2 years. I know they did not ask the question, but I can guarantee, few, if any, could tell (on a middle school level) the 3 branches of government and what they do. I'm sure random Republican voters wouldn't score that much better, though.Da Old Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529514518271981093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877655127944205011.post-67232226707442261842008-11-18T08:28:00.000-06:002008-11-18T08:28:00.000-06:00Nah, that's not sour grapes.Yelling, "Bush isn't m...Nah, that's not sour grapes.<BR/><BR/>Yelling, "Bush isn't my president!" and threatening to move out of the country for eight years -- now, that was sour grapes.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://naturalhawg.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">The Natural State Hawg</A>HawgWyldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749940044190568834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877655127944205011.post-44390050859444223292008-11-18T00:44:00.000-06:002008-11-18T00:44:00.000-06:00an interesting video, but definitely along the lin...an interesting video, but definitely along the lines of sour grapes. i mean, the site was registered with godaddy on june 11, 2008. why would you have the idea to put up a site mocking the election of a president 4 months before the election? couldn't his energy have been spent better in other endeavors? perhaps educating voters?<BR/><BR/>how come in stating the facts of what people got correct we don't see what the percentage chance by guessing was? i'm sure it's the same 25% but it's odd they didn't make it a point to say so.<BR/><BR/>and where are the interviews with 12 "random" mccain supporters? and the results of a poll with hundreds more?<BR/><BR/>i bet anything the numbers come out the same.<BR/><BR/>good find though, thanks for sharin...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
