Originally posted by MelanerpesA statistician would look at the replacement of a bell-curved political spectrum with a bimodal one and predict "greater variability".
Who do "we" turn to?
But it's "we" who've been electing these people. It's "we" that insist on never considering candidates other the GOP or Dem. It's "we" that demand that candidates offer nothing but spending or tax cuts (or both).
Do you suggest "we" need to turn to some wise outsider to make these choices for us?
Increasing variability leads to what the Chinese call "interesting times."
