In response to "Your criticism was "single point analysis" which it isn't. If you disagree that it's bad for the GOP, that's cool, but the analysis relies on 15" by TWuG

Your linked CNN Poll showed 1 data point of decline.

And another source of the 538 article,
http://pollingreport.com/politics.htm
CBS News Poll. March 18-21, 2011. N=1,022 adults nationwide. Margin of error ± 3.
is just as bad.

Responses:

Did you read the link in the IM that goes to the Nate Silver article? I linked *both* for a reason. - TWuG Mar 30, 10:44 7
- Nate's doing his usual leftist spin. Yes, I understand. - Strongbad Mar 30, 10:45 6
  - That's fine that you disagree with his conclusion. But his conclusion isn't based on single point analysis, which was your complaint in the first - TWuG Mar 30, 10:48 5
    - Your subject "Tea Party favorability ratings are in decline" was clearly not supported by the linked article. - Strongbad Mar 30, 10:50 4
      - There hasn't been a change from 38 to 32 in their favorability ratings since December? - Will Hunting Mar 30, 10:51 3
        
        Which is the definition of "single data point conclusion" -- nm - Strongbad Mar 30, 10:52 2
        
        yet that article was linked and it clearly was supporting the statement. - Will Hunting Mar 30, 10:54 1
        
        Yes, I should have read both. - Strongbad Mar 30, 10:59
