Red Wave: All last month political guru Nate Silver predicted that Democrats had an 80-85 percent chance of retaking the House at least, but now that the midterm elections are just a day away, he seems to be hedging his bet.
“This last set of Upshot/Siena polls has been pretty good for D’s. They’re polling in 11 districts now, and on average, the polls are coming in about 2-3 points better for Dems than the 538 Classic forecast from before the poll was entered,” the editor of FiveThirtyEight.com tweeted on Saturday.

The backtrack begins - too little, too late.
There’s good money to be made giving Democrats false hopes.........................
A blue wave shouldn’t be this ‘close’.
We were told the overwhelming numbers opposed this administration and congress from coast to coast.
Seems a 50-50 draw at this point, no mandate for abandoning course.
Just pray, pray and pray especially for Florida.
Nate, the media establishment, pollsters, and liberals everywhere will be eating their miserable words when the the GOP wins a landslide victory and expands the Republican domination of the House and Senate!
It’s going to fun to see them all cry and make up excuses!
He did not backtrack. On his site he has been giving dems better odds by the day.
Why is Rick Scott running for senate? That is similar to what happened with Sessions becoming AG. We could lose the FL Gov and Nelson could remain senator.
On Wednesday I expect to see stories of voting machine hacks, voter suppression, and dirty tricks by Russia.
Have you seen his huge prediction spread...
it ranges from a Republican hold to a big dem takeover.
Natey boy Silver is an absolute JOKE.
“On his site he has been giving dems better odds by the day.”
That’s only until tomorrow, and then Nate will have to explain why and how the Republicans won every contested House seat.
My concern is with the “get out the vote”, “ground game” the dems have. Buses at colleges and churches willing to drive dem voters to the polls. Are there any numbers or is their any opinions from Freepers on the effectiveness of this?
I’m looking forward to tapping the Republican button on everything tomorrow.
But what about the huge damage to our country when thousands of our wonderful lib Hollywood elites move to Canada? Yes, a Canadian bound caravan!
He drinks his own urine.
He is barred from running again for Governor.
...Why is Rick Scott running for senate?...
He is term limited as Governor.
Heard the first ad proclaiming proudly that he is a Democratic socialist today.
How do you get your Prediction published? You give the MSM what they want to hear.
What does the MSM want to hear? that liberals win.
So you sell your prediction to the MSM, and then oops you were wrong. Sorry.
