Having announced Thursday that the parts of the country that are voting for Obama aren’t “the real America,” the “pro-American” parts where “hardworking people” live, the McCain campaign now says that the parts of Virginia where the GOP ticket is going to get slaughtered seventeen days from now aren’t “the real Virginia.”
My God, it must hurt to lose an election based on areas that don’t even exist! Nate Silver provides a less metaphysical interpretation: the “real America,” defined as places Sarah Palin has been speaking, is much whiter than the unreal statistical America those bureaucrats in the Census Bureau dreamed up.
