538 blog ^

Posted on 11/06/2012 10:35:23 PM PST by ksen

As any poker player knows, those 8 percent chances do come up once in a while. If it happens this year, then a lot of polling firms will have to re-examine their assumptions — and we will have to re-examine ours about how trustworthy the polls are. But the odds are that Mr. Obama will win another term.

You can’t shoot the messenger. We think “how can anyone be possibly so stupid to re-elect Obama?” But we’re like the person who said she didn’t know anyone who voted for Nixon.

We don’t know most of this country that voted for him or maybe we just didn’t want to know how dumb Americans can get. Remember that story about the guy who flashed his breast implants in wal-mart? Wal-mart is America.

what messenger?

The entire MSM in this country are part of the enemy camp, they are propagandists for tyrants.

They aren’t messengers.

If a civil war comes (started by THEM), THEY are legit targets

Do I apologize for rightly labeling Obama’s vicious and filthy campaign a travesty of lies and corruption? Why, what ever for? I think ol’ Nate would be proud of his Pyrrhic victory, for the time being. Can he shift blame and make excuses as well as Barack Obama is the question, because friends, the chickens (economic collapse), to quote Reverend Wright, are well on their way in coming home... to roost!

Pretty much.
Never even heard of this guy.
Now he’s the be all and end all for the Homocrat party?

OK, they ‘won’ an election.

Rasmussen had Romney ahead by one point in his final poll. Off by one +.

I was thinking more along the lines of saying his polling was a bunch of $*@&

Ironically, if they are successful in their communistic goals, they are also going to be legit targets.

Nate Silver is a partisan hack. He can go to hell. He was 300,000 votes away from the knife cutting the other way.

No apologies here, troll. Go back to DU where you belong.
