Somebody out there gets it:
The world is taking note of your voting models!

you only showed us the first 12 data points here–I think you would have really turned the political world on its head if you continued this trend with an epsilon argument of .82–so I can only extrapolate from there.
Later that day, Obama gave his first post-election press conference. If we look at the first 12 capitalized words in his prepared remarks:
This
The
October
In
Americans
Tens
Their
Now
United
States
January
I
If we take the md5 checksum of each of these words, we get

Now to compare this with your data, we can use the fact that the dual space of a normed space is ALWAYS a Banach space to arrive at the following map from R12 to R12
\hat f(x) = \sum_{j=1}^{12} \tau_{j_0} \alpha_2^\prime

this provides an isometry which EXACTLY MAPS YOUR DATA TO OBAMA’S WORDS. It is as if your wrote the speech for him! What is remarkable is that it is so simple, it is a theoretical impossibility that this is merely a coincidence.
10:35 AM… mnftiu releases numbers… 2:53 PM… Obama codes these numbers into speech…
Is this a new golden age of mnftiu.cc… the dominant blog of the 19th-22nd century?? You are putting MATHEMATICAL COMMUNITY AT LARGE ON NOTICE!
This is why I blog — for the community. For the user-generated research that will define the new century as “Party-Time Century, USA.”
Nate Silver, your days are numbered! (LOL, “numbered.”)
