CAC And I Talk Polling And The Election
— DrewM

Calling this a podcast would be overstating the facts just a bit. Call it....an experiment that might lead to an actual HQ Podcast.

In the meantime enjoy CAC talking about his favorite thing....polling.

We don't have a fancy (or any) theme song (yet) so we pick the action up right away with CAC talking about everyone's favorite swing state....Ohio and the myths about early voting numbers there.

Oh and a bit of caution...this is the first time I've ever actually spoken to CAC and he has a bit of a potty mouth So if you're at work....use your headphones.

Also, below the fold, John E. illustrates what happens when a lightweight like Obama tries to throw Hillary under the bus.

Hillary Smash puny morons like Obama.

49 Obama's in so much trouble. He can't even get any economist to promote how well the economy is so he gets his WIFE to go out and do it.

It's pathetic.

It's like having your Mom cheering in the bleachers as you strike out.

Thanks, mom.

Posted by: Jcw46 at October 16, 2012 09:58 AM (Vh0f5)

50 This is O/T and will probably get buried in the last thread but it's amusing and worth sharing. My wife is an embedded conservative principal in a very urban, liberal school district. A gentleman shows up at her school this morning decked out in his Obama garb and asks her what she'd like to buy to show her support. He'd been referred to her by another principal in the district. She told him to leave. She said he stood there stunned for a minute and then left. And btw, she wore her brightest red dress this morning to silently demonstrate her support of Romney/Ryan. Good times.

63 repost from the previous thread because A) I posted on a dead thread B) It's pretty funny My daughter was at a local office supply/with printer capabilities when a woman walks in with an Obama poster and wanted reprints. The manager told her he couldn't because of the copyright. She piped up and said..."if it it were Romney posters you'd do it"...the manager said "damn straight" You gotta love Texans!

CAC was barely audible, even using headphones. What were you using to record him?

You can do a decent job using Audacity (which is free) to record a Skype (also free). call, as long as the interviewee has a better quality microphone than what your typical laptop ships with.

Drew's voice loud enough, but sounded muffled, like talking through a bunched-up sweater.

Ras ... Indiana 54-41 Romney. So can RCP make it solid Romney now?

I've had this solid red since 2008. No way IN was going to make that mistake twice. I'm more interested in when they are going to move OR, NJ or Minn to toss-up? Mark my word, one of those states is shifting.

If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

118 Someone somewhat took responsibility for Benghazi and someone did not. I made Barry look like an ass and I'm in Peru! Wait until I get back. I'm not no ways tired and ready to open up a can of whoop ass!

How did Hillary admitting she is a total fuck-up get translated into her unleashing a can of 'whoop-ass?'

Her political career is a shambles. She's an abject failure with a full-blown scandal on her hands. It doesn't matter if Barry takes the fall or not after her.

I love it, but with home computer technology where it is, I bet you worked pretty hard on making the audio quality so low.

Still, keep going. Why not? Maybe 15-30 minute discussions to listening to while I run. Do it for me.

123 Florida has been solid Romney in the last 6 polls done there. When is that one and NC going to be moved to leans Romney and not tossup?

124 Is the audio rec level too low or is it just me?

Politico healine article. "5 Unmet Obama Promises"

Wow are they all turning on him now ? Of course the article is crap.

126 So that's what Ace sounds like... Of course it could just be the acoustics in his secret compound/redoubt in case of Obama re-election...

127 Was that audio piped through a Speak-And-Spell?

It sounds like the bad automated audio from the test of the emergency broadcast system...

129 Drew, you need to improve the audio before you do this sort of thing regularly.

There are two basic problems here: CAC's level is too low compared to yours, and the digital compression is too severe. I'm guessing that his voice is coming through VOIP, so there's already some severe digital compression built in, and then it was compressed again when encoded to mp3.

Digital compression goes wacky when confronted with noise, and CAC's VOIP connection is of course noisy, so all this combined is why he sounds like his voice is coming from a galaxy far, far away.

If you can't raise his volume to make it the same as yours, you need to do some hard limiting to compress the dynamic range, and do a higher bitrate when encoding to mp3.

I hope you do start this on a regular basis, because it's a fantastic idea.

130 Oh, and as a devoted Moron, I'd be glad to help with the audio processing.

Let's face it... technology isn't something that AoSHQ excels at.

The audio is on par with the ability to use functions in the comments section. I don't know why I was expecting anything different.

If someone does a transcript of what CAC mumbled, cracked and faded as Drew boomed in occasionally, please post it.
