I never heard of Nate Silver until about two weeks ago. Who is this guy?

Me too. But after too much reading about 'him' ;-) I found he's some Baseball Statistician turned left-wing political pollster guru for the NY Slimes. He takes all the polls and digs into the stats like in picking Baseball Game Odds. But his problem is like all Moonbats, he's using the polls with huge Dem Oversampling -- from D+6 to CNN's obscene insane D+11 (that even eclipses the huge 2008 D turnout by 3%)

He (name redacted for my sanity) is the only 'pollster' who is calling it 100% for Obama. So natch, the moonbat lefties are clinging to him like we do our Bibles and Guns ;-) But as anyone knows with stats: BS in, BS out. And that BS is what 'he' is pushing.

He’s a hack pollster who rose to fame in 2008 for “predicting” Obama’s primary victory over Hillary, because he knew people who were conducting his internal polling.

I hadn’t heard of Nate Silver either until about a month ago when some so-called “conservative” radio talk-show host (I think it was Meth-head) had him on. That tells us as much about Meth-head as it does about Silver.
