In this television frame grab provided by NBC, Democratic strategist James Carville cracks an egg on his forehead to demonstrate he's got egg on his face after his projection of the outcome of the U.S. presidential election was wrong on NBC's 'Meet the Press' during a taping at the NBC studios November 14, 2004 in Washington, DC.
Carville projected 52 percent of vote for U.S. Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), 47 percent for President George W. Bush and 1 percent for Ralph Nader.
I thought he was on crossfire still...oh well...he's a cool guy

What's wrong with Mississippi anyway? Just move on. IQs don't mean anything. There so many IQ test out there, it's absurd to depend on a test to define your 'smart.'

Well the 'science' of correlating an IQ score to SAT isn't that pure...
The chart's creator claimed to have been inspired by the book IQ and the Wealth of Nations and to have drawn his IQ data from the Ravens APM, but — save for the average income per state numbers, which were valid but outdated figures taken from the 1994 World Almanac — the chart was completely bogus.
Oh yes, interesting link. I am taking Statistics AP, but we haven't gotten that far yet .
Old thread. Said same thing before. Thank God for Mississippi!

Well, I have yet to see you make an intelligent reply...
Anyway, about Yoepus' link. Hehe, it says there that the average IQ of black people is lower than that of whites and the fact that there are more blacks in the southern states is the reason southern states are below average. And those black people mostly vote democrat, so it's the smart people from the south who vote republican...hmm, is there something that could confirm that claim? And I've always had the feeling that towns on the east coast like New York had pretty large black populations...are there that many more blacks living in the south?
Essay is almost done.
