Isn’t Michael Barone the one who predicted a landslide for Romney?

Yeah, like he’s credible...

Isn’t it ODD that some many of these pundits whom had “cred” on predicting, were off? Either they were: shills of disinformation, someone who should have never been listened to anyway, OR fraud was so enormous with the electronic voting counted by another Country, that they were right, but it was stolen with the flip of a switch.

I refuse to bash Barone. He is still the premier voting analyst in America, bar none (little pun there).

Barone had a perfectly reasonable interpretation of the pre-election polls. He said "the fundamentals" were there for a Romney landslide.

And indeed, those fundamentals --the horrible economy primarily-- were there. If this were 30-40 years ago, Obama would've been out on his ass, just like Carter.

But some things have changed in America in the last 30-40 years, much worse than either we, or Michael Barone, realized ... until last night.

When is the last time you accurately predicted the future?

I really didn't see the republican party that showed up and waited in line at chickfila decide to sit at home rather than vote for the future of the nation.

But he is right. The Obama voters I know have a radically different idea of how things work than I do. Our differences are irreconcilable.
