Silver does a fair analysis.
+++++++++++++++
Yes he does. There is no doubt that Nate Silver is a highly competent analyst despite his obvious leftist views.

But his analysis still suffers from the garbage-in garbage-out problem. While he accounts for the RV vs LV problem (+2 for Romney with LV polls) it appears that he simply ignores the outrageous over-sampling of Ds that is a “feature” of a majority of the recent polls.
