Dope1: Lulz at u and whoever else that was.
As I said...don't shoot the messenger. Nate Silver may be late with this (the rest of us knew this data years ago)...

...but he ain't wrong.

Sure he's wrong if he's relying on self-described data.

If anyone can answer a survey by claiming to be a liberal, what's to prevent conservatives from self-identifying as liberals and providing answers that make liberals look bad?

Or do you seriously believe that 45% of liberals say their mental health is "poor"?

You'd have to be off your rocker to believe that shit.

No wonder Nate Silver's become a such laughing stock.
