Thought this was a bit of a fun thread to bump after going through my archives -- one of these candidates lost by 2 points, and all the others lost by double-digits (11 to 13 points). Interesting to consider why James wasn't the overwhelming choice.
Because the most active Atlas members are generally dem hacks, thus it's not suprising that James' chances were massively underestimated while the Bollier/Gross/Harrison's ones were massively overexagerated.
More like polling indicated a massive Democratic wave, but sure go on about how Atlas is full of Democratic hacks and whatnot...
