I've been keeping a close eye on the men under 56 and over 27 who are 5 to 7 pounds overweight and have an uncontrollable need to put ketchup on foods that really don't require it, for instance, spinach salad, demographic. It's unbelievable that both candidates are tied with 46% this late in the race!
Oooh! This is so EXCITING!

  Oh. My. God.
  
  If you could see the summaries of demographic groups marketers do, you'd think The Onion wrote them!

    I was sure that demographic was counted...
    Just a second...
    I know...
    here somewhere...
    AHA!
    Yeah, see the thing is, er,
    Ahhh,
    Well, the last time the Middle-Aged Guys Who Wore Loud Hawaiian And Or Bowling Shirts In Public demographic counted was when they put Carter over the top in 1976.
    But that was because they identified with Carter's brother Billy, who is actually a part of that demographic.
    So, since Carter's disastrous loss to Reagan in 1980 the whole demographic block has been sort of pushed to the side as "bad luck".
    Personally, as a guy with a closet full of loud Hawaiian / bowling shirts and Bermuda shorts to match (or, not match) I have to agree, WHO SPEAKS FOR US?

    And how about us older men who inappropriately wear Hawaiian shirts at formal parties with a bow tie?
