53. No, the argument is about Rahm Emanuel
and whether he had anything to do with the outcome of the election, which is a point you've given up arguing. Avoiding the issue with tortured interpretations of exit polling data is a nice distraction but it doesn't make your argument that Emanuel is any good.
I'm gung-ho on the fact that when you want to know why people voted for Democrats then you don't look at data for people who voted Republican. That's like asking a Catholic why he likes being protestant.

No the fact that approval numbers went up after November of '06 and went down significantly once Democrats caved on the Iraq war issue is not a decades long trend. Its a less than a year long trend. That is such a disingenuous argument for you to make.
