We do not charge admission, but we ask for donations. This event is costing us, so we pass the hat.

I’m going to try to be there.
wonderful. wish I could be there!
Well he called a win, not with all the right states but he did call the win!!
Good for him. He’s a good egg.
As for me, I would have bet the bank Wisconsin was a loss.
That’s why i’m not a pundit :)
I didn’t call WI. I did call PA, IA, FL, OH, and NC and said 300-320 electoral votes. Final was 306.
Not one person I know of on our side, including Richard Baris of PPD polling, who was right, called WI.
WOW!!!!!!
That was good.
My memory is a day old.
Nobody takes me seriously, they know i’m always wrong.
I wish you the best and a top 10!!!
he was TEN DOWN the day before!!!!
That should go down in polling history!!
You gave us hope for many months and I was one of your biggest fans here. You know that.
I’ll be buying the book. Look forward to it.
Yeah, and you know why he won WI? Because Ds stayed home. Trump won fewer votes in WI than Romney did, but Cankles WAY underperformed there.
Oddly enough, Trump way overperformed in OH and FL and especially PA (+250,000 over Romney), and Cankles also overperformed in OH and FL (but way underperformed in MI and PA).
Trump would have beaten Obama in OH and FL, but lost the election to him losing NC and PA and MI and WI.
Bttt.
5.56mm
I was on the phone with a GOP lady from MI the other day-—MI is a state that does not do D/R voter registrations, so it’s impossible to figure out a trend based on absentee/early voting. Anyway, she said they were ALWAYS sure he would win, they thought by only 4,000 votes (he won MI by 10,000).
I knew he’d get either MI or PA, but didn’t know that he’d get both. But even I underestimated his performance in OH, where he won by 9 (most polls had him at 2, I had him at 4).
I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA LOSE PA, I THOUGHT MI WAS A JOKE BY DELUDED REPUBLICANS, AND I wasn’t even sure of FL an OH.
But I’ve always been a pessimist.
That’s why i dont run campaigns :)
Remember, though, these were very, very close.
Trump got 250,000 more votes than Minion in PA and won by only 40,000. Now, the good news is that SINCE the election, GOP has gained 100,000 more registrations in PA and +27,000 in FL (no data on MI, WI, MN)
Did we out gain the enemy?
I know polling NEVER ends. Do you think he would win today?
I think he would.
That moment before FL was called was the last moment of nausea for me election night. I knew it could be over right then if Hillary took FL. After that point, things got better and better all night.
Best moment of the night for me was John King at his map of PA getting frustrated with Wolf Blitzer. “There are no more votes, Wolf!” He was moments away from grabbing Wolf and shaking him. Loved it.
Worst moment of the night: Having to drastically lower my opinion of Hillary Clinton. I honestly didn’t think I could think lower than that she is pure selfish, murderous, and evil. When she was not decent enough to come out and thank her campaign and her supporters and voters, my estimation dropped so low of her that it hurt. She truly makes evil Disney queens look realistic.
If current trends hold, FL would go from a Blue state to a red state by 2019. But PA, even with 100,000 per quarter, it would still be a D majority, only slightly.
Wow.
I wonder which way the wind is now blowing in MI and WI.
That’s really hard to say since we can’t track the D/R registrations. Ditto VA and MN.
We’re falling behind in NV and CO, about where we were in NM. Obviously, I’d trade all three for PA.
