OK, the Diddy Factor wasn't

Two weeks post election and it's still hard to believe. Fellow government workers, scientists and administrators alike, find it hard to believe. Life will go on though.

I was really surprised though by the fact that the effort to register new voters (especially those with cell phones instead of land lines, and who should be underrepresented in public opinion polls), did not have a bigger impact on the outcome (see this post).

I'll let Cringely apologize and say why. See "Bob Don't Know Diddy".
