3. it's obviously not completely irrelevant... even if limited data, when 71% of the independent economists say obama knows economics better, that he has better policy ideas and would hire better people. RELEVANT to what's going on in the campaign? RELEVANT to what other polls say about Mccain/Obama? RELEVANT to the economic crisis?


To each their own... but at least you guys have progressed beyond calling The Economist a lefty rag... calling all the respondents academic DNC workers... etc.

Maybe... gosh... we'll talk about THE ECONOMY eventually...

I mean, I like how all of the major national news agencies are spouting, "This is the worst economic downturn in OVER EIGHT YEARS!"


Seriously you idiots...who was last in office OVER EIGHT YEARS AGO?

...and who do YOU PERSONALLY BELIEVE is going to win this next election?

F*cking morons.

1. I don't know the economist, but I know it's written by people, and people have political opinions. This article was very left wing and stinks of partisan hackery.

2. The data is as valid as my hypothetical data on the Steves is. It's still retarded. Btw, where in the first 21 pages of this thread did you use "anecdotal?"

3. Still not relevant. The data proves nothing, ther than they got the responses back that they did. The data may be accurate for the sample they got back and may be valid in the sense that they entered in the opinions into a spreadsheet without ****ing it up, but it has no signifigance at all. To assert otherwise is academic dishonesty (that's something educated people fear, you may learn that if you go for your associates)


Let me add #4. you need to click on Youtube vids to see how long they are and how much time you need to waste on what is probably ****ty propaganda, therefore it is presumptively tl;dr.

That's ridiculous - so even if they were previously conservative, if they endorse an atypical candidate, that disqualifies their history?

If I claim to be a vegetarian all my life, then suddenly start eating bacon-wrapped chicken fried steak every meal, am I still a vegetarian?



Or, if I was straight my entire life, then started going to gay bath houses and letting the local bears run a train on my ass, I would be TseTse

I dont think I was saying it "disqualifies their history".

Is it somewhat relevant to a story on this specific election? uh, yea

Well if you want to get serious and academic, sure you could say that, but it's more fun to make your point with bacon wrapped chicken fried steak and TseTse getting gang banged by bears.

You're talking to a bunch of blind partisans who think if you dont 100% tow the party line then you are a flaming liberal partisan on the "other side." That's how these goofs think.

Did I say it was a lefty magazine, or did I say they endorsed barack obama? Which they did, of course.

New rule: You can never ***** about straw man arguments again.

I stated a fact, not an opinion.

In the primary, yes.

I dont remember them endorsing him over Mccain, officially, but they certainly have been increasingly slamming Mccain... like MANY CONSERVATIVES HAVE BEEN. ANd even if they did endorse Obama over Mccain, your point is what? That this makes them "less conservative"?



You're just proving the point...

(hint: the economist is making a POINT when they reported this data saying that economists they are talking to swing obama)

Yes. Voting for tried and true liberals MAKES YOU LESS CONSERVATIVE. If I suddenly started voting for kennedy and kerry and deval ID BE LESS CONSERVATIVE. On the contrary if the nyt endorsed mccain or bush they'd be less liberal. Shocking!

This is not groundbreaking stuff, here.

Oh man, so anybody who isnt for Mccain is a liberal. Classic Triple Logic.

"EVERYBODY HATES YOU!!!"

(funny, i dont actually get nominated for those ban threads you do well in)














The Economist is criticizing Mccain for how he's lying, smearing and putting forth ****ty ideas. His tax plan and economic plans are ****ty. Saying that doesn't make you LIBERAL.... just like criticizing BUSH for being a horrible "conservative" doesnt make somebody LIBERAL either.

Someone who advocates liberals over a conservatives, but claims to be conservative, is either liberal, or they're voting for the wrong guy.

Why would any bright person vote for the antithesis of their belief system? Explain that.
