Sabato on Fox and Friends - the entire punditry and polling industry failed.

Thank you for this. My blood pressure rose every time he was on TV.

Sabato should find another line of work. Weather forecasting, for example.

The media and the pundits and the pollsters were in corrupt collusion. They should not be forgiven for their obstructionism and for their dishonesty. May they rot.

I saw that interview.

Loved it. Sabato is a hack.

Sabato sure was wrong, I didn’t see this latest interview with him people were talking about but I saw him about 2 saturday mornings ago on Fox and his forecast was excessively pessimistic,

That said, apprently the IBD, LA Times and People’s Pundit Daily Polls were somewhat accurate.

Nate Silver, I read 538.com. I give him credit, he manned up and said he got it all wrong. Unlike the children in the Democrat party we accept apologies and move on. But....his reputation is gone forever. We all knew he was wrong, but he insisted on spouting propaganda. You are forgiven Nate of course, but we’ll never be friends. :-)

I found their polls to be informative. All you had to do was unskew them by about 270 degrees, and all sorts of insights popped out.

Exactly. If he’s such an expert he’s an accomplice in the public polling/media echo chamber propaganda machine—and was fully aware of it all through his prognostications.

He is man enough to admit it. Good on him for that.

He should jump in the ocean and take a swim with the current.

Too much room for fraud...I suggest selling used cars.
