In the late 1980s I was coming out of a bar in Georgetown. I almost walked into him as he was getting out of car in front of that bar.

George Will was very good on the David Brinkley show on ABC ......... It was a must watch back in the 1980s into early 1990s.

But those days are gone.

Bow tie buffoon George Will knows nothing.

One good thing about the Trump era is that phonies like Will were exposed.

In each case cited, there were at least 20 other variables (besides “cheat the prophet”) to explain the outcomes. It’s a lot like the Mets/Orioles ‘69 series, Jets/Colts same year. The odds against were insane, and yet... try as you might to explain, someone else will disagree. And the same reasoning will be used by some to help predict the outcome of some other big game — to no avail. Variables.

"Weird article to me with no point"

There's no point other than the one on George Will's head.

The analogs point directly to ...

Really simplistic. Reagan lost Iowa in 1980 because John Sears was a crappy campaign manager, who was fired just in time for New Hampshire.

George Will voted for Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020, he is no conservative and should not be addressed as one.

George is still hoping to see the GOPe rise from ashes and nominate Romney or Jeb! Bush.

Reminds me of, “The South shall rise again!”

George Will got a bad case of TDS and hasn’t been worth crap since that time.
