I saw that interview.
Loved it. Sabato is a hack.
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.
I don’t know who he is, but at least he had enough of a shred of honesty to admit he was very wrong.
I don’t think he is a hack. He is trying to accurately predict the election. He missed it big. They all did. Kind of like Michael Barone missing the Romney win.
