Israeli-American techie scum. Almost became political operative scum, hence tweeting. RT without comment equals endorsement of tweet only, not source account.



Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position in the United States Senate must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!), without which we will not be able to get people confirmed in a timely manner. Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more. This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY! Additionally, no Judges should be approved during this period of time because the Democrats are looking to ram through their Judges as the Republicans fight over Leadership. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU!

Now, @NateSilver538's key finding is that 80% of polls report a margin <2.5 points, which he says is way too few. Recall that 2-in-3 polls weight by recalled vote, and a 1-in-3 don't. Thus, I would (roughly!) expect: (2/3)x90% + (1/3)x52% = 77%. That's AWFULLY CLOSE to 80%.




It's becoming impossible to distinguish ProPublica, whose work is generally interesting if slanted, from a shop running interference for cases of medical malpractice. OB care needs improvement in both blue+red states. They are making it worse, not better, by muddying the waters.
