    Well I guess you're a genius, lol. I figured the swing states might pull it out.... Also, someone was trolling here and making fake announcements before I even got home. Silly me, I thought he wasn't lying, so thought things were going better than they really were before I even got home.
    I dunno, I think I figured it would be Trump for sure around 7pm Pacific. I watched a little longer after that and then turned it off in disgust. I woke up at 1am for some reason, and checked to see if maybe Clinton somehow eked out a win... obviously I had trouble getting back to sleep.
    I saw it at 6pm Eastern! I am a genius! (A lucky one)

    I was just wondering because even at 6pm last night he had Clinton with a 78% chance of winning. Yes, that gives Trump a 22% chance... but come on. It was a serious failure of political polling, which he is supposed to specialize in. I bet this hurts his career.
    He doesn't do the polling though...he just has a model that interprets the polling that is provided to him.

    I say he did better than anyone else...he gave Trump a 30% chance when no other model that I saw did. I don't know where the 22% chance came from. Silver's model froze at midnight Monday since there were no more polls to update the model. It is still on his site showing the 30% chance for Trump.

    Silver was bang on considering the numbers publicly available. He stressed in the days before that her electoral vote tally was not safe. If you look at the raw numbers it would not have taken much for a handfull of states to have gone the other way.

    Right, interpreting poll results. FFS. :lol: All I am saying is that Nate Silver really hitched his name to all his reports, basically set himself up as THE go-to source, and damn, the results of this election probably won't be good for his career.
    He was speaking live on ABC when he said it was up to 78% (he was asked why it went up). I guess that was around 6pm PST, maybe even later. He looked pretty stressed out actually, ha.
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    How's that system is rigged for Hillary nonsense you were peddling work out for you? I'm sure you have moved on to a new conspiracy theory.

    You have absolutely no credibility here.

    So was Hillary just immensely selfish in forcing herself on the Democratic Party when she knew she was divisive and flawed candidate?

    30 years of public service is selfless.

    On the other hand, Trump is the walking manifestation of selfishness.

    Look where that entitlement because of 30 years of public service (that resulted in $200 million in the bank) got the Dem party? She was selfish, but I understand the pressure to run when people gave her and her husband $200 million for influence.

    That is funny though. Are there any other selfless jobs that will make me .2 billion dollars? I am going to check Monster.com

    Not for nothing, but if I spend 30 years dedicated to working for the same company, I would feel obligated to throw my hat in the ring when the old CEO decides to retire. That's not entitlement. That's being qualified for the job at hand.

    Do you honestly believe Trump ran on some concrete ideology? You know, besides fear mongering....

    Or was the Democratic Party immensely selfish and flawed when pushing her as the candidate and pushing Sanders out? Sanders had a better chance of beating Trump and we knew it.
