33. NPR keeps saying "we have no idea how he came up with that number"
When even the NPR anchors are skeptical, you know that's trouble.

I know how he came up with that number: they wanted it to be good and big, but they figured the 90s would be too high (Saddam Hussein used to win with 99%) and they figured it should be an odd number so people didn't think they were just making it up.

We'll see what happens. I remain skeptical, but it would be nice if I was wrong about this. If it works out better for them, I can stand all the Bush gloating.
