Nate Silver missed big-time on the 2014 election.
When will he ever learn?

While we still have to see how things unfold this year, I’d put money on Silver being a disaster result-wise. I need to remember to take a snapshot of his site today as I’ll bet he will start to tighten things up ridiculously this week.
I used to think Freepers that thought the Obama camp was feeding him internal polling data were a bit silly ... not anymore. Internal polling data costs a ton of money ... however, I’m sure they found the risk acceptable to give data to him. Hillary seems as paranoid as Hitler, so there’s no way he’s been getting help this year. If he was, he was ignoring that data.
He and Krugman have achieved sainthood on the left. Nate is going to lose his on Nov 9 the way things look. After 18 months of Trump, I *really* hope Krugman looks like a blithering idiot to everyone outside of Free Republic.
Nate should have stuck to baseball predictions. He is fairly good at that :-).
Little Natie is slow on the uptake. 8 days out from the election here he is not certain anymore.

Either polls are having trouble capturing a random sample, or voter preferences are quite volatile. Either way, lots of uncertainty.”

Silver what? Don’t you have Trump at 98% chance of losing? A maroon.
