16. Nope
No Alaska. No Texas. No Montana. Only one of the top 4. Only 5 of the top 10. Only 11 of the top 25.

Seriously. Obama lost the land. By the states, he only won 1,468,000 square miles, to McCains 2,300,00 square miles. I'd be willing to bet its even worse if broken down by county. Surely a president not supported by the empty tundra cannot be legit, right?


Oh.. wait... did you mean the people? Nermind then.

31. It helps people learn from their mistakes. Repukes wear being wrong as a badge
of honor, we try to learn from our past misjudgments.

35. Primaries are over. The anti-Obama folk all figured out they were wrong about him by now.
So have the anti-Clinton folk, I should hope.
