— CAC that this is like bacon for your eyeballs:

and my best work yet.
This is the actual doomsday map with all seats in a simple 2-color schematic (instead of the shifting pattern I am using on most of my maps).
The specific shades of red and blue though have a fun effect courtesy of color psychology.
Stare at the beautiful, beautiful NuOhio and let your eyes drift.
Hue vibration baby.
Demplosion, baby.
Updated House Projection coming tomorrow, in 48 hours quite a few poll and funding numbers trickled out and there are some notable shifts from last time (showing Republicans gaining just 47 seats). Safe to say the Democrats' initial "firewall" is absolutely gone and they are working hard on sandbagging firewalls 3 4 and 5.

Oh, oh, do promise us, CAC, you will do a "before" and "after" animated GIF, won't you.
You know, pre-Nov 2'nd, (mostly blue-red mix) post-Nov 2'nd, red tide.
It would be sweet. Something to keep and reminice about.
(Something to haul out of the hard drive on a cold night...)

Damn straight. Unless those areas to the left and right of that weird squiggly mass are red, the GOP has lost and Pres. Obama is vindicated and socialism is great.

Bad news, my fellow morons and moronettes.
My penis was just diagnosed with Muhammad Ali Syndrome. Pretty soon, this disease will grown into full-blown Michael J. Foxitis.
Regardless, I will stop beating it when they pry it from my pink-semen-stained fingers, or November 3rd, whichever comes first.

Better Red than dead....... (but just in this specific case)
How about a map that shows the creep of all of that beautiful Red as the weeks have gone on throughout this election season? That would be - dare I say it? - orgasmic.

President Obama is so bipartisan, he wanted to lose control of the Senate and the House, and he's thrilled to see Boehner running things.
He's amazing and deserves a Nobel Prize for Awesome.

My rule of thumb (thanks, dad!) is "if it costs money, vote NO." It's simple enough to grasp that the more people you tell it to, the more people adopt it.

Well, I'm sure there could be a way to do it cheaper than you might imagine.
B'sides, what could be more costly than a decision between a Democrat and a RINO?

Or a time lapse of the districts changing on the night of Nov 2, like the map you get after finishing Civilization.
CAC, just to avoid any confusion, would you mind repeating what the criteria are for painting a district red?

Well, it only recently switched from a Dem state to a Republican one as their parties are only now finishing their ideological realignment.
But I would guess these results have something to do with illegals and friendly election officials...

That is indeed Crunchy Commie Boulder territory. In the rest of beautiful CO ,you'll find some ridiculous pockets of enviro-whackos and refugees from Denver spreading their shit in the foothills, but yeah, ain't no changing the endless unwashed stench of Boulder. Otherwise people are ranchers, in the tourist industry, or military/tech.
While I'm at it: WTF, Minnesota? You produced Mike Nelson, the Mall of America, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. Why can't you get your NPR shit together? Is it all the lakes? Seriously, WTF is wrong with you?

I cringed it, too. The California government will remain blue. We need the rest of the nation to go red to save us from our own asses. The border has to be sealed from Washington, because Jerry Brown, our next governor, intends to give free shit to everyone who steps foot in the state.

Gene Taylor (D) is not going to lose on the coast. It may be close as ever, but I just dont think Palazzo cant pull it out. While winning that district is remotely possible, there is no way Bennie Thompson loses the MS Delta. That district (MS-2) is VERY majority black. Absolutely no way a Republican takes it.

Part of that is Austin, or more properly, the People's Republic of Travis County. It's where Californians go when they realize they can't afford to live in Denver. The other bits have almost always been parts of the Democrat machine, from the days of Santos Benavides (1850's), Polly Rodriguez, Manuel B. Bravo forward...they have remained mostly Dem because of successful race baiting.
Posted by: seguin at October 12, 2010 08:33 PM (y0Y96)
Why shouldn't a candidate be able to run for both seats at the same time? Shouldn't the top two vote-getter win, and not just the top vote getter for each separate race?
OK, I am tired, but the above sounds like how it should be....
