Debate poll results.
Using a methodology* which I believe to be comparable in accuracy and quality to Gallup, I have found that Kerry won the debates with a resounding 60%-25% margin of victory, with 15% undecided. However, even more stunning than the margin of victory were some of these statistical anomolies:

85% of people who watched the debates on a working TV that was sitting on top of a non-working TV thought Bush won.
72% of people with at least one major appliance in their front yard voted Bush the winner.
95% of people with less than a 3rd grade education thought Bush explained his positions better than Kerry.
63% of angry white men could identify more with Bush than with Kerry.
82% of former contestants on Jackass believed Bush acted more Presidential.
A resounding 100% of exiled former tin-pot dictators felt Bush demonstrated the kind of leadership qualities needed in a national figure.
91% of convicted Nazi war criminals found Bush the clear winner on moral issues.
96% of people who have ever suffered an alcohol related self-inflicted gunshot wound felt that Bush was the candidate they would prefer to have a beer with.

I probably missed many other statistically significant results. Feel free to examine my data and let me know if you see any other remarkable findings.

1. Badly hung-over freepers are hard at work
this morning trying to undo the damage their boy did to himself last night. Nine out of ten Republicans beleieve that Bush was taller. If you were a Bush supporter, last night had to be like watching your kid fall off his bike.

Now it's up to all of us to keep the heat on.

2. 88% of biological scientists with Ph.D.s from Bob Jones university
felt that Shrubbie exceeded Kerry in depth of knowledge of basic scientific principles, like how stem cell research is evil and how global warming is something that the liberal devil invented.
