His definition of proportionate would mean that if a group's approval of Bush
went from 1% to 31%, that too would be proportionate. The relative odds would
be one way of expressing the changes in proportions, but the absolute
difference (60% to 90% is roughly propotionate to an increase from 33% to 68%)
seems quite wrong.
