You know, I never pointed this out yesterday, because I really figured you were just using rhetorical excess.

But since you keep insisting on it, let's see what you said:

It was a statistical tie. The addition to the headline ("tied for last among frontrunners") was a lie.

Assuming you are correct that it was a statistical tie, the addition to the headline was STILL correct.

Under your definition, of the 5 frontrunners, FOUR of them were in a statistical tie for 2nd place. Which, in case you can't figure it out, means that ALL FOUR were "tied for last among the frontrunners".

Therefore, even by your own tortured logic, you falsely accused the freeper of lying.

You can't win. You falsely accused another freeper of a lie, you did so repeatedly, and here in this thread you admitted it by your own words.

Fred Thompson WAS tied for last among the frontrunners, either by comparison of the actual numbers, OR by your method of taking into account the margin of error.

Got anything else to say? Come on, you have to admit it now. I won't hate you for it. :-)
