Oh, please. John Stossel gave Hillary an 80+% chance of winning two years ago, and also gave Brexit the same chance of being defeated. So much for his “accuracy.”
In football, the purpose of the “spread” is to prompt half the customers to bet on each side. The bookies look forward to earning their 10% from the losers. Is political gambling industry based on different biz model than the football spread?
I went back to 2015 for John Stossel’s ob-eds and I could not find anything that he gave Hillary Rotten Clinton a 80% chance of winning. Where you got this from I have no idea. It might have been an other columnist from Townhall.com,but it sure wasn’t John Stossel, and would he? He is a libertarian.
