After DNC, Obamica 60%, McCippah 40%
Since the inception of the famed Kippah Polls, the McCippah as retained a consistent lead over the Obamica. Until last week. Yippers.
Yesterday, a writer asked me if the Obama Kippahs gained traction thanks to the DNC. I checked the numbers. Indeed, the convention put the Obamica ahead last week.
These numbers are not a total tally. It’s based on Kippah orders since the start of last week. When the history books are written about the politcal kippahs, this convention momentum will be referred to as the great convention kippah bounce.
Since last week, 60% of orders are for the Obamica; 40% for the McCippah.
The graphic depicts the changing tide; Hurricane Gustav, Gracious Hillary and Obama taking control in Denver.
In general, people were always surprised that the McCippah was outselling the Obamica, since Jews typically vote Democract.
Three possible explanations I keep hearing as to why this occured
1 - Democratic Jews have less money to spend after donating so much of their savings to the Obama campaign
2 - Republican Jews tend to be more religious; hence the Kippah
3 - Democratic Jews, while the majority, are akin to the girl with the natural beauty that doesn’t even need makeup. Makeup = Obamica Kippah Whereas the Republican Jew, the minority, has a tougher battle and needs the reinforcement…
Will the McCippah reclaim the title after the RNC this week?
