Election 2008: State of the Race (Rove already calling it for Obama)
Karl Rove.com ^ | 11.4.08 | Karl Rove

The final Rove & Co. electoral map of the 2008 election cycle points to a 338-200 Barack Obama electoral vote victory over John McCain tomorrow, the largest electoral margin since 1996. All remaining toss-up states have been allocated to the candidate leading in them, with Florida (27 EV) going to Obama, and Indiana (11 EV), Missouri (11 EV), North Carolina (15 EV), and North Dakota (3 EV) going to McCain. The two candidates are in a dead heat in Missouri and North Carolina, but they go to McCain because the most recent polls conducted over this past weekend show him narrowly ahead. Florida, too, could end up in McCain’s column since he’s benefited from recent movement in the state.

Already Posted. I don’t care what Rove says today. I will hope and pray that Americans haven’t completely lost their minds, and that McCain-Palin with the help of Pumas will win.

These threads keep coming up.
Rove in 2006 when he had better information.

This is old news. Rove has not “called” the election for Obama. This news was from last night and all he was doing was putting the electoral map in play according to the polls of YESTERDAY.

Total mislead on your part and you should modify the header.

Rove just phoned this in and picked up his check, all he did was basically use the same polling as real clear politics.

As Ann Coulter has observed, Rove engineered two squeak-by election victories over two of the most beatable candidates in US history.

Rove may figure that it may make overconfident Obamanites stay home and not vote. He’s been looking lately like the cat that ate the canary..

He hasnt called anything.

He merely has a model that is based on recent public polls, much like real clear politics.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the Bush political machine is trying to hand the presidency to the Democrats?

Exactly right! And yet we are led to believe that Rove is this evil genius.

As far as I can tell, he adds no new insights to the discussion.

I wish Rove would just STFU. What is his game anyway?

Rove’s 2006 predictions were real good too if I remember. Let’s just hope his accuracy hasn’t improved.
