And the deflection continues:
1) Oops, my mistake. You are correct, it was 58%.
2) I thought it was clear I posted it, but if not: I posted it -- at least twice.
3) You are incorrect about a link. The article I posted includes a direct link to the .pdf of the poll results.
Beyond that, get stuffed. It's not laziness at all on my part. It's a refusal to play Sir Cad's juvenile games. I've sparred with him for years and I know what he's trying to do. He wasn't willing or able to address the poll's results the first two times I posted it. I'm fully confident that hasn't changed. His badgering is just a deflection from his own dishonest statements.
Actually, I had found it, I just wanted you to go back and find the source so you could attempt to be accurate.
So you admit you were just playing games, just as I said. You spend way too much effort doing that and way too little attempting reasoned and cogent discussion.
It was a survey by WPR and a college. It was 58% and was NOT "59% of Wisconsin voters supported the recall effort".
Yes dear, I already acknowledged my mistake, in the very post you quoted. I was off by one percent. It doesn't change my point in the slightest.
... it was not "voters"(which was a parroting error on your part due to poor reporting),
Proof? The .pdf of the poll results is ambiguous. It merely states "adults" without providing more detail. It may be
The Nation was, in fact, sloppy as you suggest, or it may be they have more direct information from the source.
The important thing is it doesn't matter if it was a survey of all Wisconsin adults or only Wisconsin voters.
The point remains the same: your continued claim that this recall is only about some sore-loser Democrats is WRONG. Many Republican who once supported Walker turned against him.
(FYI, citing information from a news article is not parroting. "Parroting" is what you do when you repeat the same talking points over and over.)
and finally - the question wasn't about supporting the recall effort - it was about actually voting for or against Walker in a recall election - NOT supporting an "effort".
So? Semantics nitpicking. Dance and dodge all you want, it doesn't change the fact your were WRONG.
The point remains the same: your continued claim that this recall is only about some sore-loser Democrats is WRONG. Many Republican who once supported Walker turned against him.
I knew what you were trying to do and I called you on it
There's nothing mysterious about what I was "trying" to do, Cad. I was trying to show you were WRONG ... and I succeeded.
- get over it. Your vague claims are not backed by what you call "facts". You twisted a survey to suggest more than is actually there.
There was nothing vague about what I said. My minor error notwithstanding, I cited a study that demonstrated your partisan talking point was bogus. That was my only point, no matter how much you want to deflect and duhvert into other topics. I understand you believe you are never, ever,
ever wrong ... about anything, but the facts are against you.
