I'm an anthropologist Manny and I've studied cultures extensively...that is like psychology of groups of people and I am a natural at it, it's the one thing I can say with all confidence that I truly do well. I've never missed calling the popular vote in my life.
THe only time I've been wrong about the winner is that I expected W to lose in a landslide in 2000..but my mistake there was that I knew W's story intimately with him having been the owner of the Rangers and the Govenor of Texas. I knew he was a Silver Spoon, I knew he was going to have an agressive foreign policy that would probably stir up our international relations, and I knew he was ignorant and unlikable...I assumed everyone else knew that individual knowledge and that was my mistake.
Swear to god, I have a hard time feeling that anyone in this country threw a bigger fit about W winning in 2000 than I did.
This election, I think it's going to be a Republican Landslide based on my feelings right now.
A few weeks ago I was going to have a hard time voting against Obama...not the case now....and he has not been coming off well in interviews lately.
And even when I was leaning towards him I didn't think he was going to win.
Barring a major smear on McCain...I think Obama's last chance will be to dominate the debates...and McCain is a tough debater, much more effective at debating than he is at public speaking.
