Nate Silver is the single best political analyst who has ever lived in the entire history of free elections.

This, thousand times. Nobody else has ever pushed the concept of "objectivity" as far as he did.

He does get credit for predicting election in 2008, but I believe his model lends itself to democratic victories.  I suppose I wish he would stop reporting chance of winning showing an 89% chance for Obama to win because it creates "narrative".  That bothers me.

See, I can understand that you don't like reality, but you can't blame Nate for reporting it as it is.

OK guys, this might be a gigantic hoax, but even the remote possibility it's true makes me shudder.
