I had a publisher today tell me that they didn't know the historical context of the book I wrote. They seriously had not heard of the Byzantine Empire.

That^ is what Romney's America™ will be, when people are given as much education as they can "afford."

My favorite part is that, evidently, no one who had seen your story took five seconds to type it into Google. I mean, I can forgive people not knowing history at all (some people don't retain that shit), but not taking the damn time to check up on it beforehand...

I could tell by the tone of her voice she barely scraped by with a BA in English.

Urgh. People actually EMPLOY those types outside of Macy's and Charlotte Russe. THAT'S what bothers me.

Nor do I...I've been convinced of his failure since about the same time Roger called it. It's fun to play with the fictional possibility, though. It's a kind of LARPing.

Yeah, Romney is toast

http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/09/03/sept-2-split-verdict-in-polls-on-romney-convention-bounce/

QuoteOur forecast model builds in an adjustment for the party conventions; it treats anything larger than a 4-point bounce as being a favorable sign for Mr. Romney, and anything smaller than that as being an unfavorable one.

This could change as we get more data, but for the time being it looks like Mr. Romney's bounce will be a bit shy of that 4-point threshold. Thus, the forecast has moved toward Mr. Obama over the past few days; it now gives him a 74.5 percent chance of winning the Electoral College, his highest figure to date.

Which is pretty damn good odds. 

The media like to portray it as a close race, but they always do, because it makes for a "more exciting" read and so boost readership, clicks and, ultimately, advertising revenue.

This is quite a twist, yes.

Also, glad somebody else is finally recognizing what I've been saying since I last had to go through Pennsylvania....  :lulz:
