Nate Silver gives this headline an 85% chance of causing some heartburn.

Here in Johnson county, Texas there’s a massively long line for EARLY VOTING. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the baby-killers on November 6.

Watch Nate Silver and Stephanopolous on the ABC Election Night video. At about 10, after Silver had confidently predicted 2 hours previous that Hillary had a 78 percent chance of winning (an increase from earlier in the evening, BTW), Steph tells him that he seems to be changing his forecast. Silver denied it, Steph presses him for a prediction and Silver babbles something about following the betting markets which have switched to Trump. Its quite funny; his crystal ball had cataracts.

It is against FR rules to alter a headline.

Look for a catastrophic false-flag any day now.

I was looking up “Reichstag fire” online yesterday after the news about a “bomb” near Soros’ home.

I’m thinking the “caravan” will be attacked by some Timothy McVeigh undercover FBI agent types.

MuttTheHoople,

I hope you are correct. Texans who stay home to protest anything should be severely chastised.

Well, if they are diehard Democrats then I wholeheartedly encourage them to sit at home on Election Day, and not vote early or send in a ballot!

The media are still using their three week old talking points, still expecting a Blue Wave and insisting a foregone assumption that the Dems will take the House. They have conceded that they (the Dems) won’t take control of the Senate, but the rest of their narrative does not match what I think is really going on.

The Senate race prediction is ticking up almost every day in favor of the GOP, while the Dem trend is flat. We are looking good. As for the House, forget a Blue Wave and look back at the 2014 and 2016 races for a guide. The GOP lost six seats in the House in 2016. That’s a good guess for this year. We may lose fewer and we may lose more, many of those races seem to be in flux. Reports of early voting, requests for absentee ballots, and shifting of campaign dollars are better indicators than polls. Many of the House races haven’t had a poll for over 30 days. Worthless.

I checked RCP, its about even. Some of their tossups are BS too. Bost is up 9 in IL, yet listed as “tossup”. There are a few of them in there like that.
