Actually you missed the analogy altogether, .270 was just a metaphor to the Russia truth/investigation....it's morning humor. I should have seen the smiley. Sorry.

The origin of the "Russian" tampering began after the Illary emails were wikileaked.
The theory was put forth by the Ds, and its original purpose was to distract the voters from the fact that all the emails were indeed legitimate. There has never been an email that was proven, or even alleged, to not be accurate.
So, the "Russians hacking the election" BS was put forth to create an enemy in the Russians, so that moronic liberals could simply reply "It was the Russians, so I don't believe it" while ignoring the content of the emails.
At this time, everyone was certain that ILLary would win the election, so that was the end of the "Russians".
Until after the election.
Then, the "Russians" miraculously reappeared, exhumed by the Ds to explain the Trump victory, and then to try and de-legitimize the Trump presidency.
So, to answer your questions:
1- Nothing
2- Nothing

Shaman, if you want to take an honest look at it, here are some of the aspects that the FBI is currently investigating. No ballot boxes were stuffed but... http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article139695453.htmlOperatives for Russia appear to have strategically timed the computer commands, known as “bots,” to blitz social media with links to the pro-Trump stories at times when the billionaire businessman was on the defensive in his race against Democrat Hillary Clinton, these sources said.
The bots’ end products were largely millions of Twitter and Facebook posts carrying links to stories on conservative internet sites such as Breitbart News and InfoWars, as well as on the Kremlin-backed RT News and Sputnik News, the sources said. Some of the stories were false or mixed fact and fiction, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the bot attacks are part of an FBI-led investigation into a multifaceted Russian operation to influence last year’s elections. Investigators are examining how money may have moved from the Kremlin to covertly help Trump win, the two sources said. One of the allegations involves whether a system for routinely paying thousands of Russian-American pensioners may have been used to pay some email hackers in the United States or to supply money to intermediaries who would then pay the hackers, the two sources said.

Yeah, a rag based in Sacremento, Kommiefornia must be honest. LOL
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

You mean news stories like we saw last week that Comey knows Putin hates Hillary and loves Trump? Of course, those stories never mentioned that comey also said the fbi had not found one shred of evidence after investigating Trump since last July but knew there was and would continue the investigation?
Of course, your commie news articles from the msm should be ok, right?

Got it, any information you don't personally agree with is "leftist". Is integrity dead?
integrity noun 1. the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness.

NEB - no, no, no, that is the liberal point of view, where - yes - "integrity" was strangled to death a long, long time ago!

integrity noun 1. the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. So, does mentioning things people were accused of with no mention of by who, truth, or relevancy promote integrity? How about using Donna Brazille as a source with no mention of the crimes she is guilty of, but will likely never be procecuted for, and merely saying she was once the head of the DNC for credibilities sake for the target audience. I find no credibility with either article, but I do find many of the traits lieberal rags use to fill heads with half truths and full lies. Particularly now that Trump has been elected and is changing things rapidly. Little changes on it's own. Stick around. I think there are lots more changes and surprises in store. Particularly for the lieberals among us.

One estimate I heard wast that 20% of all BOT traffic in the US during the election was Russian. Maybe your Facebook experience was different from mine, but about 90% of the traffic I got on Facebook during the post-convention run-up to the election was pro-Hillary. Go figure. I'm just wondering, based on all that's been said here, if anyone on the Russian-hacked-the-Election bandwagon has really thought about the really narrow limits all this supposed influence there could of been. If all we have is what you've given me, I'd say it was a miniscule amount of inconsequential internet hooey and that's about it. Me? If a guy had come to my door with a Russian accent telling me to vote for Trump, I'd have remembered. I DO remember the guy coming to my door and asking if he could put a Trump sign up, but I know him. He's a neighbor and if you're going to tell me he was a paid sleeper agent of the Russians. . . Truth is this side of the county was plastered with Hillary signs for months prior to the Trump signs showing up. Maybe they were put there by Leftist elves?

Well Russians did show up at my door and force me to vote for Trump and I'll testify under oath to whoever wants as long as I can keep a straight face.
It's about like this:
"Do you puff peters?"
"Hell no!"
"NAZI!!!"

Time will tell, rarely does an investigation of this magnitude take place without just cause...stop the paranoia.
I've never heard nor seen Comey say "there is no evidence"
