Romney lost statewide, as we already knew, but more remarkable is the number of districts he has lost. He lost many of them by thin margins, but that is not much consolation. It appears that he has lost almost all, except the 21st, 49th and 52nd (which he has won) and possibly the 42nd, which is very […]
Costly Failure
Wednesday, February 6th in politics
By Republican strategist Alex Vogel’s calculation, Mitt Romney is giving Gramm a run for his money. The former Massachusetts governor has spent $1.16 million per delegate, a rate that would cost him $1.33 billion to win the nomination. By contrast, Mike Huckabee’s campaign has been the height of efficiency. Delegates haven’t yet been officially apportioned, but […]
Was Anti-Mormonism A Factor Yesterday?

It seems to me that this is hard to discern from exit polls. First, the exit polls aren’t measuring why people voted one way or another, but which candidate they supported and which demographic groups they belong to, so the only thing we can know with any certainty is the level of support, or lack of […]
Not So Super
Tuesday, February 5th in politics
As of 11:00 Central today, Romney has won just three primaries all year and all of them are effectively his “home turf.” All of his other wins have been caucuses, many of them not strongly contested by his rivals. P.S. It’s hard to gauge the outcome from county results, but so far every county that has reported shows a […]

The figure on the upper left is the Pakis, on the upper right the remaining Englishmen, West Indians and Bangladeshis on the lower left, and the 500K Froggies and the Poles who now live in London on the lower right.
As Randy Newman put it
Not to speak of Dick Whittington, Dr. Johnson, Admiral Nelson, and Evelyn Waugh, to name a few.

People griped about the 2002 Salt Lake City logo and mascots, and they looked fantastic compared to London’s piece. From a design perspective, this is very poor. Good design communicates specifically, while entropy confuses. They seem to be trying to say “Anarchy In The UK!”, which would be nice and all for the Sid Vicious crowd, if it weren’t associated with the corporatized bloated merchandising behemoth that is the Olympics.
As is, what the logo really communicates is “we paid people to make us look hip - we’re down with the Four Eleven!”. All they need now is Ronald McDonald wearing a studded black leather biker jacket with the London 2012 logo emblazoned on the back, eating organic free-range Chicken McNuggets and hitting yoga poses while wearing inline skates. With some generic hip-hop playing in the background, of course.
