He's staking his career and reputation on it, what do you do for a living?

Thing is, he's really not. He is only giving statistical odds. He still leaves an escape saying there was a chance Romney could win.

I'm in the mindset that he is, but some see him as leaving an out cause. I just see his reputation taking a big hit if he's wrong.
Time and change will surely (truly) show How firm thy friendship ... OHIO!

Fun fact, he used to be a baseball statistician.

I know. He's also from East Lansing and his dad was actually a professor at Michigan State and chair of the poli sci dept.

The best thing that ever happened for Rush's career was Clinton getting reelected. Same goes for Obama getting reelected.
Limbaugh Predicts McCain Victory
"Talk radio giant Rush Limbaugh says that Sen. John McCain will score a stunning upset over Sen. Barack Obama and win the presidency on Nov. 4.
In an interview with London Telegraph correspondent Nigel Farndale published Friday, Limbaugh said the mainstream media has been pushing Obama’s candidacy because “They want to be able to say they did it if Obama wins.”
To which Farndale countered, “Well, he is going to win, isn’t he?”
Limbaugh’s response: “No, I don’t see it Nigel. I think [Obama has] been dead in the water since the primaries. He is going to need to be up 10 to 12 points to win by 3 or 4.”
The latest “poll of polls” on RealClearPolitics.com showed Obama leading by 6.4 percent.
“Don’t forget,” Limbaugh said according to Farndale, “that Hillary winning was a foregone conclusion, too. If the polls had been right it would have been Giuliani versus Hillary. That’s why polls a year out are worthless.”

Rush is more trusted than Walter Cronkite was at his peak. Fact.

If true, this is more of a commentary on how stupid segments of the U.S. population are than on the quality of either broadcaster.

85% of GOP have voted in Hamilton county, OH with 3 hours left. This is one of the most centrist counties.
The GOP is flocking to the polls in Ohio.

Ruh rob
quote:Of note, the mirror counties — Lake County and Sandusky County — both predict Governor Romney will win Ohio using either model. For those readers unfamiliar with the mirror county concept, those two counties have accurately predicted the winner in 28 out of 28 statewide races in Ohio from 1998 to 2010. Because the larger counties likely won’t report results until later in the evening, readers may want to track the results for the mirror counties as indicators of what might happen statewide.

Yea he has nothing. If things were looking good for Obama right now, the media would have already declared victory.
Instead ... crickets.

Data the Romney Campaign is Looking At

Rich Lowry writes on NRO: This is what the Romney folks say is encouraging them. Passed along for what it’s worth: CO: Adams County (lean D county) – strong R turnout based on morning data – on track to win since first time in 1984. AB/EV margins will be hard for them to overcome today. Right now – . . .
