Is this the same Dick Morris that predicted she wouldn't run for the Senate.

Does anyone besides Hannity even listen to him?

When you make bold predictions, you run the risk of being wrong. However, I much prefer someone who is willing to prognosticate on an unsure subject than someone who is right all the time on no-brainers. The problem that we the political onlookers have is we punish risk-taking (in political foresight) too much and reward accuracy on no-brainers more than we should. Morris' predictions are about the best there are- only tempered by the fact that he is still a political animal, and often his public statements are meant to have some desired political impact as much as they are intended to predict the future.
