Deductive Logic is Dead

"If you need proof that this is the most important election in a generation, get this: Jewish grandkids are flying to Florida to visit their grandparents -- without being guilted into it -- to talk their elders out of voting for John McCain."
--Joel Stein

It's a cute idea, but how does "grandkids are flying to Florida" demonstrate "most important election in a generation"?

Call me a math geek, but I do not think the word "proof" means what most op-ed writers think it means.

What Other People Say

The whole article was lacking in logic. This guy is flying down to Florida to convince people to vote for Obama because McCain got bad grades in college while Obama went to Harvard and Columbia? Yeah, so did I, but you'd be a bloody fool to put me in the White House right now (ignoring the fact that it would unconstitutional this year)
