Nate Silver: Trump Is Ahead!
Rush Limbaugh ^

Posted on 09/26/2016 12:04:39 PM PDT by detective

RUSH: Uh-oh. There's gonna be real panic out there now because Nate Silver has just announced that Donald Trump would win if the election were held today. Trump now has a 54.9% chance of winning the election. Nate Silver. You'd better close the windows on high buildings where Democrats are in offices. It's not gonna be pretty.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Just to reiterate here, I had to squeeze the information in in a flash as the previous hour was ending. Nate Silver's website, FiveThirtyEight.com, has adjusted its projections ahead of the debate tonight, and this is it, if the election were held today, Trump leads with a 54.9, basically 55% chance of winning the election, according to Nate Silver, who is the left's guru in analyzing polls.

Previous predictions from Silver about a month ago gave Clinton a 90% - 95% chance of winning.

At that time we should have sung Amanda Marshall’s Dark Horse chorus

My money’s riding on this dark horse, baby
My heart is saying it’s the lucky one
And it’s true color’s gonna shine through someday
If we let this, let this dark horse run

All the lefty pollsters are now revealing all their polls. I’ve seen Hillary up one in NC, FL, and tied in Iowa so far. They probably had them ready to dump just for this situation. They all get listed on @Ppollingnumbers on Twitter

Typically, polls get more accurate the closer we get to election day. (crossing fingers)

Nate Silver - the liberal guru of polling prediction.

Liberals must be cutting their wrists and jumping out of windows.

Hillary was supposed to have the election in the bag.

Gone in a month - and there’s sheer bedlam on the Left and in the MSM.

It changes continuously, as updated poll results are added into the model.

There are three poll models at 538. Use the radio buttons on the upper left to select them.

why we are giving this POS more credence when he incorrectly called the last midterms? There is a reason why he’s on ESPN website (aside from being a libtard) when his crystal ball projections are like sports betting.

There’s a segment of the population embarrassed out of supporting Trump. If he starts to lead in the mainstream polls, they may come out of the closet.

Liberals love him.

When he says Trump is going to win, that simply confirms what people already know.

I called it for Trump back on Labor Day weekend.

Bottom line Trump is now the front-runner and the election is his to lose.

Wow!

That’s as close as you will to Nate Silver admitting that Trump WILL win.

Given that his entire operation is catered to the Liberals, if Nate Silver is willing to admit Trump is winning I think he is winning by a long, long margin.

This is funny...over the weekend, on some social media site’s comments, some lib was touting a Nate Silver poll (obviously an earlier one), that showed Clinton up by 2 points...2 points!! This person was so smug and confident, saying that “it was over” for Trump, and we (conservatives) should leave the US, and yada-yada.
