Attention: dumb GOPers who were calling Nate Silver a fraud

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

He's probably gonna go 50 for 50 predicting each state, how accurate were your ed predictions

Darrins, get in here an apologize now, got.

Darrins, get in here an apologize now, got.

DarrinS is one of many who owe Nate an apology

[DMX7]

Could still go 50 for 50... but let's be honest, only about 5 states were really in doubt and if you looked at all the polls, they really weren't.

Props to Silver but @ "Romney has a 10% chance to win".

Props to Silver but @ "Romney has a 10% chance to win".

true, that's the biggest claim you could make against Silver.

Too bad the Silver critics on this site were saying he was biased towards Obama

[DMX7]

Props to Silver but @ "Romney has a 10% chance to win".

Yeah, it was more like 0%.

Romney loses even with Ohio & Florida now. Game Ovah.

[kamikazi_player]

this is almost true now. Not that many people would say Obama wins Florida

Nate Silver

[Ashy Larry]

Nate Silver's figures:
50.8 for Obama
48.3 for Romney

CNN:
49 for Obama
49 for Romney

Silver also says Obama will have 313 electoral votes, Romney 225. That's an 88 vote difference.

If Romney wins, CNN is clearly more right.

If Obama wins the popular vote by 1 percent or less, and the electoral college victory is under, say, 40 votes, CNN is still closer to accurate.
But if Obama wins by, say 1.5 percent or more, and wins the electoral college by 50 or more, Silver is the clear winner.

Anything in the middle, we'll call a draw.

b-b-but Morris said it would be a Romney landslide!

b-b-but Morris said it would be a Romney landslide!

So did Newt. He stated that Romney would win in a landslide. He knows this because of his years of experience in politics.

It was so funny watching Karl Rove freaked the out on Fox News. That was Romney's running mate, not Ryan .... it was a Romney/Fox News ticket .......

If Obama wins the popular vote by 1 percent or less, and the electoral college victory is under, say, 40 votes, CNN is still closer to accurate.

Obama is up by about 1.3% and will win the EC by more than 100 votes.
