They misunderestimated me

They misunderestimated me.

	- George W. Bush, 11/6/2000

Mind-bending analysis:

They underestimated him, but in the wrong way... That means... Um... They underestimated him about the wrong thing. Bear with me here, I need some coffee. When you underestimate someone, you think they are worse at some capacity than they really are... So... To underestimate someone incorrectly must mean that you hit a capacity that they really are not good at, meaning you estimated them correctly. So to misunderestimate someone must mean to have actually sized them up accurately.

Huh.

Disclaimer: I voted for W. before, and (sigh) I probably will again...
