We call that an opinion and I have every right to disagree with it.[/quote] What am I claiming??????? The only thing that I did was post article's on the topic because you kept telling everyone to back it up! That somehow we are all wrong and you are the only one that is right because you have all the TRUE evidence. That is my opinion, and I agree with it! (laughing) oh wait I'm spose to ........

Look, I really don't care about polls or statisitcs, or supposedly "scientfic research" into elections, because they've been proven wrong for the past eight years now.
