I am going to take your comment in the best possible light, because frankly it seems a bit snarky. Thanks for the info: my opinion is that the data you provided is the best thing, or one of the best things about FR.

No one can be expected to have all info relevant to the topic....that is why we discuss issues and ideas.

I’m sorry for being snarky, but I just find this kind of thinking to be incredibly flawed. It’s the reason that candidates like Romney are even the least bit competitive. All the ‘on paper’ electoral vote matchup nonsense is for wonks in classrooms who never deal in the real world.

Once we free ourselves and stop all of the calculations and nuances, we can get down to picking the BEST candidate rather than the one who can win on paper. McCain was a great ‘on paper’ candidate. That didn’t get us anywhere.
