So I'm a numbers freak, I love reading the state polls the second they come out and as such I try to check several of the site that post those polls. I've got a "regular" list of roughly 8 to 10 sites I visit several times through the day. Today i ran across a site I hadn't heard of before but one that claimed to take the "liberal bias" out of the polling. Immediately I was intrigued because, as far as I know, numbers don't lie. So with the required filters firmly affixed for dealing with bovine dung I waded in. Only one word can decide it, "WOW". The site in question can be found here.

As a quick summary that site believes Romney will win both the popular and electoral vote. They believe Romney will win the popular vote with 53.63% and the electoral vote with 359 votes. Yeah, wow! Some of the states that will supposedly go to Romney are as follows: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon and Pennsylvania.

Yeah, "unskewed".

It appears as if Keith Olbermann was fired because the head honchos at Comcast didn't like him according to TMZ. I was afraid this was the reason all along. I think it could possibly be traced back to his stance on wanting to protect net neutrality, something Comcast wants to do away with. I guess Keith's belief Comcast would make MSNBC more liberal just went out the window.

There has been some talk (here, here, here) throughout this extremely long process of attempting to get universal health care for all American citizens, that the final draft of any health care reform be named after Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy.

This is my first dairy and more of a question then a statement. My question for all the kossacks is since the MI and FL delegates have been stripped are the superdelegates stripped of their status in these states as well? I can't imagine that superdelegates who may have pushed for their state to move up will be allowed to keep their status as a superdelegate while their actions helped deprive their fellow state residents of their voice at the convention. Does anyone know the answer? Thanks everyone!
