4 is where you lose me. Thats a pretty good indicator that it is still bias driven...it just lands with the 'least' bias...or rather...ends when people run out of chances to pick a map that better suits their philosophy.

It isn't bias-driven, but even with unbiased parameters, some randomly-drawn maps will favor one party or the other purely by chance. By having each party's leadership take turns eliminating a map until they whittle it down to a single remaining map, you could ensure that the final map was somewhat "average" in terms of what you would expect unbiased parameters to produce.

Obama isn't liberal, either.

Up isn't a direction, Gravity is a state of mind.... there are people who believe they are famous historical persons like Abraham Lincoln and Albert Einstein too. I guess everything is relative and I'm sure there's also hundreds of people, potentially, who think John Wayne Gacy would have been a helluva babysitter too.

i kind of feel the same way.

while i'm not a rabid Kucinich or Paul supporter on the majority of issues, i want them both there. they both seem to have integrity.

Kucinich is not a politician. He's a human being :)

Aliens are certainly beings, but I dont know if they count as 'human'. Kucinich has always reminded me of the tentacled class beings they use to advertise Hulu.com. they LOOK human...but...

A simple mistake? From your article


I'll start worrying when Joe the Plumber wins the general election. How did he even win the nomination?

Worried about what?
 
I rarely agreed with Kucinich though for a long time I did respect him as a man of principles. Disagree with me all day but be true to your priciples and I'll respect you.

He lost that when he said that he was opposed to Obamacare but for political reasons, he would vote for it.

Good riddance Dennis.
 
Bah. No more vegan in congress. But a neocon bimbo sounds great.
 
Although I don't think Kucinich is a bad guy he does have some whacked out ideas when it comes to policy and its time to go.........Joe the Plumber will win the seat now............
 
Oh WOW! The Keebler elf won't spread any more elfin magic in Congress anymore.
