The best predictors for Obama

You can look at this summary of nine prognosticators who all predict an Obama win or...

You can listen to the right's two favorite pundits:  Karl "Turd Blossom" Rove and Dick "I love to suck the toes of my prostitute" Morris.  For quite a while both have been predicting a solid Romney win.

On Tuesday Dick Morris went further:  He predicted a landslide for Romney.  He even titled his story, "Here comes the landslide."  That's as definitive as it gets.  Romney not only wins, but he wins in a landslide that will sweep Republicans into a 53-47 control of the senate.

On Saturday he changes his tune with, "Sudden danger signs in polling.."  Umm, no.  Polling has been remarkably consistent.  At this point there's a point or two bump for a Obama in a few polls but nothing dramatic.

Now, Rove, too is saying the race has changed because of Sandy.

I do think Sandy was a game changer.  If I'm right the change was from a nail-biting win for Obama to a solid win for Obama.  It was never from "landslide Romney to win for Obama."

This if nothing but major CYA and nothing more.  And when Fox news' favorite guys for red meat are saying, "Uh-oh, things don't look so good anymore" you can believe them on this one.  They want to retain their jobs as pundits so to say at the last minute, "Oh, now the world is different" is just enough to keep their jobs.
