I think I was pretty clear: my point is that the title was clearly picked because it unquestionably DOES relate to the subject.<br /><br />Was the title have a double meaning containing a not-so-subtle little bit of innuendo? Sure, of course it did. Again, I didn't say it didn't. Nate Silver would surely admit as much, and would probably admit that it was a bit childish, too. The "mysoginistic pink" line in the post was a bit of an obvious self-dig, too.<br /><br />If you're accusing fivethirtyeight of being, generally, a site loaded with left-wing vitriol, then you obviously haven't given the site even a cursory look. Although the site does have some partisan posts scattered about, most of it is straight political analysis grounded in statistics. Even the non-statistical items are pretty nonpartisan - the next post after the Palin one is a vanilla interview with the executive director of the Republican Governor's association.Tarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09242627723328062618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-68049941316175498722009-07-16T14:45:08.379-04:002009-07-16T14:45:08.379-04:00So Tarr,

Smart women left that brand long ago. It's just cranks and crones now.<br /><br />Cynthia, conservative lesbians like you and conservative gays like GayPatriot deserve much credit. But seriously you both are way too far and few between. We need a lot more bravery and a lot less cowardice, but too many lesbians and gays have closed, locked minds.Peg C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06551207217057903731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-74282317845602524082009-07-15T20:25:00.717-04:002009-07-15T20:25:00.717-04:00What do you make of the fact that while liberal fe...What do you make of the fact that while liberal feminists have not defended Gov.

Try googling "fundraising head tail". On the top page, I get the following links:<br /><br />Feb 11, 2008: "The long tail of fundraising: how small donations make a difference"<br /><br />May 26, 2008: "The long tail of Obama's online fundraising"<br /><br />... and six more links about the "tail" (as in, the tail of a statistical distribution) and how it relates to fundraising. There's only two links that aren't about political fundraising, in fact.Tarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09242627723328062618noreply@blogger.com
