BAD NEWS: New evidence McCain sews up key demographics
Don't shoot the messenger. It looks like McCain's performance last night DID in fact help a few key demographic groups, according to a few new flash polls. The voting blocs who liked McCain's performance:

Grumpy bastards: 78% thought McCain won. 22% said "Screw you."
Unregistered voters who are plumbers making over $250,000/year: 50% thought McCain won. (Sample size=2)
Fans of pink lipstick on old men: 56% thought McCain won. 44% "wished there had been a real pig in the debate"
Nonsequitor Users of America: 51% thought McCain won. 42% responded "Ginger Ale and biscuits." 7% asked for the poll-taker's zip code.
Admiral Stockdale: 52% of Admiral Stockdale thought McCain won. The other 48% of him responded "Gridlock!"
Sarah Palin: Sarah Palin thought John McCain "100% whipped some terrorist ass, even though there was only a 10% chance that he did that also."

Looks like we're going to have to double-down on our efforts to reach these key constituencies.

3. I DONT TRUST THE POLLS!!!!!!
I think Obama did better with "Fans of pink lipstick on old men". I'd like to see their sample sizes. They are likely over-polling Admiral Stockdale!
