Have you been "exposed" to MSNBC? Do you live in the "Northeast"?
Got to love John Stewart, and how could I NOT go visit www.howobamagotelected.com after his piece just now on Palin?

A tasty excerpt from that homepage:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Those “exposed” to Fox News got "congressional control" correct 64-25 (+39)

Those “exposed” to CNN got “congressional control” correct 48-38 (+10)

Those “exposed” to Network news got “congressional control” correct 48-39 (+9)

Those “exposed” to print media got “congressional control” correct 52-37 (+15)

Those “exposed” to MSNBC got “congressional control” correct 55-35 (+20)

Those “exposed” to talk radio got “congressional control” correct 61-29 (+32)

Voters in the "South" had the best response rate on “congressional control” (+22)

Voters in the "Northeast" had the worst response rate on “congressional control” (+9)

Those “exposed” to Fox News voted 70-29 for McCain.

Those “exposed” to CNN voted 63-37 for Obama.

Those “exposed” to MSNBC voted 73-26 for Obama.

Those “exposed” to network newscasts voted 62-37 for Obama.

Those “exposed” to national newspapers voted 64-36 for Obama.

Those “exposed” to talk radio voted 61-38 for McCain.

2. Ah, you have been "exposed".
You probably did not "get it correct" (which hurts one's ears, grammatically). :hi:

It sounds like a silly bullshit made up term, which it is.

9. I can understand why Northeasterners weren't so awesome then....
Because our fucking Congress critters are pretty much Republican lite these days, and it's rare to find a true progressive or liberal in office.

7. I suppose they should define "congressional Control."
I know that the D's technically have control, but I'm not sure that expresses the reality of the situation.
