How did the Cook Report do in 2016?

An embarrassment. Read this whole post.

The Republicans will gain more than two dozen seats in the House.

“young people turning out in big numbers like never before”

That is complete horse crap.

Do they ever specify the 30-40 they think will flip, or do they just take polls in California and New York and average them out over the entire country?

Don't these IDIOTS see the turnout of early voting of the GOP?

Just go vote, folks. Ignore the polls. Your vote is all that counts.

Not only is Cook a political Hack, Wasserman is even more so. If you watch his Twitter feed, his entire focus is on cheerleading for Democrats.

It’s total twaddle.

Ds get between 8 and 15.

I’m leaning toward 10 as we will have at least 5 D-R flips, but could be 8-10.

I looked at every house race today and I came up with R=225 and D=210. It will be close, but I think we hang on.

The Dems keep pulling out their tired old Oprah, Hillary and Joe and think it will matter. BWAHAHAHAHA.

Drudge is a homosexual, and he soured on President Trump when Trump made moves against trannies in the military.

I visited Drudge’s page for the last time in the aftermath of that false flag known as Charlottesville.

What did it for me...when Drudge ran that headline “Make America Hate Again.”

I haven’t visited Drudge’s page since.

Not a chance in the world...

For reference, this was their 2016 projection for the EC.

https://www.cookpolitical.com/presidential/charts/scorecard

278 Hillary. 214 Trump with 46 toss up

Congressional 2016, fairly accurate:

Maybe I’m polyanna but I’m thinking more like 15, net.

30 is more than my most pessimistic projection, 40 I find to be nuts.
