During Mark McGwire’s record setting 70 home run season of 1998, it was
easy to see something was wrong. His prior season high record was 49
in his rookie year at age 23, whereafter he hit 32, 33, 39, 22, 42 (at
age 28), 9, 9, 39 (at age 31), 52 (at age 32), 58 (at age 33), and 70
at age 34. He then hit 65, 35, and 32 home runs at age 35, 36, and 37
respectively. Never in the history of Baseball had players exceeded
their 20 s highs by 43%. Indeed, a ball player’s peak years are ages
24-28, and thereafter decline is fairly rapid and steep. Unless they
use steroids.

Creating
the 4 million votes needed would have been more expensive, old school
ways generally are. But consider that 4 million times $25 would amount
to $100 million, and $50 million a vote would amount to $200 million,
that’s definitely not a stretch for a campaign that raised over $1
billion.
The same is true for Obama. Sure, I’d believe a very
heavy, Black/Hispanic turnout could give him a victory over Romney. But
…
- Record Romney crowds and a quarter of the people
attending Obama’s rallies in the same places as four years ago?
- Or polls showing a slight Romney lead in both
swing states and nationally, with a Democrat plus six weighting?
- When 2010 had basically even party turnout?
- Or Obama being the first President EVER
re-elected with a lower turnout and percentage of the vote than his
election?
- Or Obama being the first Democrat elected with a
lower turnout (nearly 20 million fewer voters) than the prior election?
- Or Obama being the first President re-elected
with unemployment over 7% since FDR?
- Or Obama winning re-election with only 38% of
White voters, down from 43% in 2008, in a 75% White turn-out (remember
lower turnouts are more White).
Or Obama getting 303 electoral votes … but the
Republicans holding onto the House?
Or Romney doing better than McCain in every demo group but Hispanics,
and there doing only 2% worse, while Hispanic turnout was LOWER than in
2008?
That’s like asking me to believe that McGwire hit his record home runs
clean.
So what were Obama’s steroids? [Obama

Somebody in an earlier post questioning the efficacy of this election
commented "Poor Loser."
Which is what the Baltimore Sun and MD Democrats cried in unison
when Ellen Sauerbray petitioned
her mugging by the simple expedient of— in-a-flash!— finding enough "new ballots" to
steal her Governorship. In Minnesota, it doesn't matter
that a few hundred Dems have been jailed for voter fraud; Al
Franken is still "Senator Al Franken".
I don't the Blue Machine even worry about being caught anymore.
They understand that, like in football, once the ball is
snapped, the previous play is non-reviewable. For them, snapping
the ball means media acceptance of an election result, without
question. In-a-flash! |
