Last week Senator Obama came to Northern Virginia – Leesburg to be exact. There he pulled a crowd of 10,000 people (though almost half left before he was even done speaking?). Today Governor Sarah Palin came to Leesburg, VA and also pulled a crowd of 10,000 people. A picture of the event this cold autumn […]

Reader Frogg passed along this really interesting commentary from a professional pollster who is (a) a die hard Obama supporter and (b) laughing at the public polls: I was having dinner a night ago with a friend of mine who is a statistician for a well-regarded private polling company. They do some work for Republicans […]

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 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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Last night I posted about how the Fairfax County Registrar was trying to reject 98% of the Federal Write-In Absentee Ballots from our military. Apparently that issue is going to be solved and the ballots will be counted. Read more here. DJStrata

Folks, Governor Palin will be in Leesburg, VA Monday.  Everyone who can go should go, and let’s see if the Palin crowd can rival or exceed the recent Obama visit! Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will be in Leesburg Monday morning to do her part in Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) effort to keep Virginia in the […]

Heading back home today so won’t be posting for much of it.  Should be able to surface again this evening – but so you folks can keep the debate going here’s an open thread to say whatever you want to say!

LJ and I went to an organizational meeting to get ready for the last 280 hours of this election. And let me tell you, it is going to be a fight. Over 400 people showed up to find out what needed to be done to keep VA red. The guest speaker to spark the crowd […]
