TYT Contest #3 - Top Five McCain States

posted by yturks


OK, let's keep these contests coming. This time, I'll go crazy and be extra generous. Guess the top five McCain states in this election and win a 2009 Ana Kasparian calendar.

For reference, the top five Bush states in 2004:

  1. Utah 72%
  2. WY 69%
  3. ID 68%
  4. NB 66%
  5. OK 66%

For this contest, you don't have to guess the percentage of the vote.  The Young Turks will pick ONE winner from all the people who guess the five states in correct order (DC doesn't count, in case you think McCain has a chance to take DC.)

And don't forget to check the other two contests if you haven't done so yet - Guess The Top Obama States and Guess the Final Electoral College Count.

1. Wyoming

2.  Utah

5.  Alabama

Mine is close to the top 5 Bush 2004 states--not very creative, but I suspect that is where the 23%-ers still live (those that support Bush still).

I have an Ana calendar, so I will request the "Men of TYT" calendar for 2010.

I could be wrong but I think the top two McCain Palin states are gonna be denial and insanity, but we'll have to wait and see how it plays out. To be truthful, I think it would be more fair to say that McCain and Palin themselves are living in a state of insanity and that their supporters are living in a state of denial, but who knows it could be the other way around or a bit of both.

Of course there is also the fascist state, which usually refers to say mother Russia, but in this case refers to our current administration, meaning the State, as in the gov't proper; the State in the authoritarian, absolute, official sense. I think Paulson is King and Cheney puts the Dick in Dictator, last I heard. There's also supposed to be someone named Dubya hanging around too, but I don't think he's very important or influential.

Then there's the state of the world today, what with the shape the state of the world is in today, what from Iceland to 401ks with finance, the wars, food shortages and global warming, we can only imagine that the state of things to come is naturally going to be better under  Obama/Biden next year.

Looking forward to Obama's State of the Nation.

Whatever you do, don't click this link (studies show you're more likely if you shouldn't)
