Ok, who had Natalie Portman for VP?

SI

Logan · 01-23-2012, 11:51 AM

I'm guessing my more narrow economic answer on #5 did me in and prevented the perfect score.

MIJB#19 · 01-23-2012, 12:03 PM

"Unemployment"... what was I thinking!?

yep, had you just said economy, woulda been a 4 way tie

digamma · 01-23-2012, 12:12 PM

Bitrock,

Happy to split the questions, run the whole contest or completely defer to you. Your call.

spleen1015 · 01-23-2012, 12:22 PM

Finished where I thought I would.

albionmoonlight · 01-23-2012, 12:31 PM

Not to get into an argument with Stupid, but President Obama cannot be our "next" President because he is already the President.

You should be happy that 60% of respondents at least knew that Obama is the current President. That's gotta be above the national average of any given forum.

General Mike · 01-23-2012, 12:39 PM

Shoulda said Obama for next prez.

Isn't there some quote about "never argue with a fool: they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"?

SI

Agreed - but then after I answered Hillary, I thought, "Damn it, Stupid is gonna say Obama...I really should have said Obama." Tis what I get for overthinking.

It went well with my Mitt as next boss and 60 percent turn out answers.

He will be president for the next term. I think the question was clearly interpreted the way it was supposed to be. It's just a semantics issue.

Pyser · 01-23-2012, 03:34 PM
