Waaah! Bad exit poll!

I've been trying to come check for new posts every morning, but I just read the one from 11/04. Two months and a few days later, all of the people who can't remember past their own birth and either ignore or refuse to consider S&H theory keep saying, "Obama is the new Kennedy."

Oddly enough, despite the fact that I only agree with about 45% of his stands on the issues, I'm beginning to feel that it's not issues that make the leader as much as it's the ability to inspire all of us to take part in them that does.
