Bi-Poller

Jay Cost posted a good tutorial on the mathematics of polls, but left one case out where statistical models start to show two different possible outcomes. These are called bimodal results, where there is no consensus on a single result, but actually two highly probably results are possible. A graph of a bimodal statistical model […]

Mad Jack Murtha To Be Sent Packing By The Voters

  Mad Jack Murtha has a special place in the liberal leftward fevered swamps – the man is border line insane. He accused fellow Marines of killing innocent Iraqis without any evidence or thought, and then did not have the backbone to apologize as one after another was cleared of the charges.  Lately Mad Jack […]

It’s All Ground Game Now

Something big is happening in Northern Virginia. I have been out of the country for a week and I came back home to the place I was born, raised and where I raised my family to find I did not recognize it. The area has become obsessed with the presidential election! There are signs everywhere […]

Liar!

Update: Seems this was all a lie. Sorry folks, but I was traveling 12 hours before I could get to a point to make the update. Obama asked his followers to go out and get “in their face”, speaking of independents and McCain-Palin supporters. We know the leftward fevered swamps can be a trashy place […]

Obama Campaign Hurting For Money Or Out For All The Money They Can Make?

Obama’s campaign is either being stingy with their money or they are not making enough. There have been two issues raised recently, one right here in VA. A couple of weeks ago Obama-Biden held a rally in the City of Newport News. And due to the fact that the rally was held in an open […]

Media Bias…Even From FOX News

While at the Obama rally in Leesburg yesterday I saw some very disturbing incidents with the media. There was a gentleman there taking pictures, but he was standing with us McCain supporters and yelling some very nasty things to the Obama supporters standing in line to get into the rally. Luckily he didn’t stick around […]

Obama Rally in Leesburg

I went to the Obama rally in Leesburg yesterday to show support for McCain. I did not actually go into the rally but stood with the other 50-60 McCain supporters outside the entrance with signs. It was interesting to watch the amount of people who showed up. Traffic was horrible and people were still arriving […]

More Poll Volatility

Clearly this year the pollsters don’t have a consensus. Some show a growing lead for Obama, others his lead shrinking to a tie. I still think by the time election day rolls by there will be a clear trend one way or the other. But for those looking for optimistic news there are polls out […]

About Those (Bogus?) Michelle Obama Audio Tapes

People may recall the big buzz about some supposed audio tapes with Michelle Obama where she loses her composure and lashes out at ‘white racists’ opposing The One. Apparently, if the source of those tapes is to be believed, they will be handed over to Fox News sometime soon. API has an ongoing discussion with […]
