THE NEW GALLUP
Re: David Hogberg's Electoral State College:

Great call by David Hogberg 286-252. Tell my cousin through marriage (for lack of a better term) Al Regnery that we're celebrating here in Houston!
-- Mark Cieslar

In baseball, if you hit 286 that means two out of seven. In the case of my colleague Mr. Hogberg, he hit 286 and is batting 1.000.

Wow! In all my years of election-watching, this is the first time that I have seen the exact number of electoral votes for a candidate predicted. Mr. Hogberg is a genius, and once again, The American Spectator is right on target.

Warmly,

When is David Hogberg going to take over the (place your favorite embarrassed pollster here)? For example, he made his 100% correct predictions nearly 18 hours before John Zogby, who still got everything wrong! Oh, happy day!
-- Warren Mowry

Congratulations, you called every single state correctly. Maybe Zogby needs to hire you!

LONG DIVISIONS
Re: George Neumayr's No Dividing the Red Sea:

I just read George Neumayr's column for this morning. The only thing I can say is: "Game, set, match."

His analysis of the MSM and KK (King Kerry) is pithy, intelligent, and down-the-middle-of-the-plate correct. I'm emailing to everyone I know.
-- Linda

In "No Dividing the Red Sea," this man wasted MY time and everyone else's by ignoring an OBVIOUS fact. This nation IS divided. The election is clear, undeniable proof of that. Bush narrowly won the states he did. Is Neumayr's blind? Insane?

No. In typical conservative fashion, he's looking past clear fact and describing it in a fashion that suits him. And does so by undermining others. Pathetic, indeed.

He is no journalist -- he cannot even acknowledge simple facts. As such, he has no business critiquing others. This entire website is embarrassing to our country.
-- Wendy Booth

"Republicans will hold the House, Senate, and White House. Yet reporters said ad nauseam that the country is 'divided.'"

And they are correct. 49% of the populace voted for another person. Where Kerry won he often won by big margins and where Bush won likewise. You are right that the country is not divided significantly on gay marriage. On war and corporate control of our lives and livelihoods, we are divided. Just watch.
