Compare and Contrast

I wish that Nate Silver were African American so that we could compare him literally versus Megan's pasty white ass as well as figurative against the pristine landscape that represents her knowledge base on what she discusses.

Her article on the latest Rasmussen poll showed up on my google reader.

Right below it was Silver's take on the exact same.

She spells Massachusetts wrong in her title.

Yeah, seriously, why do we bother.

Give her credit for consistency: She mis-spells Massachusetts throughout the item.

A somewhat more reasonable take on the election, Rasmussen, etc. here at the Wash. Independent.

Over the Christmas and New Years holidays, the little-known, Massachusetts-based blog Conservative Revival conducted its own “citizens poll,” which consisted of the blogger and her husband calling names in the phone book and asking who they supported. If no one picked up the phone, they left messages informing voters that Brown “vote against the government’s takeover of our health care” and “bring balance back to our Senate.” Their amateur poll showed Brown in the lead. HillBuzz, a blog written by die-hard supporters of Hillary Rodham Clinton who oppose President Obama, encouraged readers to make phone calls for the candidate and “stop Healthcare Rationing, Cap & Tax, Amnesty for Illegals, and every other crazy thing Liberals in Washington want to do by putting [Brown] into deceased murderer and womanizer Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat.” On December 30, Republican strategist Patrick Ruffini–who is doing some online work for Brown–published a lengthy argument for conservatives to take a “calculated risk” and donate to Brown.

Somebody shows up in the comments asking her to correct the spelling. They must be new to McArdleland. Otherwise, they'd know that she rarely corrects anything, and when she does, she certainly doesn't note that changes have been made to the original post.

Could someone do me a favor and explain how it makes sense for rabid fans of the Secretary of State to want to sabotage the Administration's agenda, which looks a great deal like the one Clinton herself ran on? Second question: can anyone do this without mentioning racism?

Nutella: I was talking about the article M. Bouffant quoted above (HillBuzz, a blog written by die-hard supporters of Hillary Rodham Clinton who oppose President Obama, encouraged readers to make phone calls for the candidate and “stop Healthcare Rationing, Cap & Tax, Amnesty for Illegals, and every other crazy thing Liberals in Washington want to do by putting [Brown] into deceased murderer and womanizer Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat. ).

Also, no IOZ link in the blogroll?

IOZ's comment on George Will's latest is better than mine:

But if you want to see what a George F. Will column would be like if he got up, performed a linked series of sun salutations, drank an acai smoothie, kissed his power crystal, smoked a doob, and put on some Peter Paul and Mary, well, Merry Christmas.

Nothing about HillBuzz makes sense, unless the whole thing is a pure Suderman-style ratfuck.

Then it makes sense. It's just lame.
