I have to admit to indulging in my fair share of schadenfreude this election, though I've personally only seen it directed at the campaign and right-wing blowhard pundits -- not at Republican voters, of whom the many I know are intelligent and good-hearted people.
However, this page really is not compelling to me, because these graphs are such a prime example of a blatant misuse of vertical scale. The y axis currently ranges from 12,046,000 to 12,050,000, which makes the decrease look like a sharp 45° falloff, when in fact it's fallen by 0.02% during the time shown. The numbers are the same to within four significant digits. So what is this supposed to be telling me?
