    This isn't a debate. It's a dinner. McCain's jokes were more crude, but had a better delivery. Obama's jokes were wittier, but he stumbled on them as he often does in his speeches. It is was a tie. 52% of the vote is an impressive victory considering this is higher than both of Bush's victories in 2000 and 2004. He also beats Reagan's 1980 electoral victory.

    Arrogance is separate issue from being correct.

    Your arrogant remark about the US citizenry says more about you than about the US citizenry.

    The perceived strength of Obama's margin in victory says more about the incompetent nature of the US citizenry than anything else.
