Stands in the corner with Laura and Strix
TCG finally got home from his meeting shortly after I posted, and he took the day off of work today so we are being lazy this morning.
I kinda love the attention and adoration that has been bestowed upon Nate through this process. He certainly was my life raft in moments of doubt.
And once again I agree with Laura. I loved the Keep Calm and Check Nate Silver's Blog meme that was going around right before the election.
I had to come in early this morning to fire someone for the second week in a row. Thank Dog this is the last of these for what I hope is a long while.
Oh, Scrappy. I am so sorry. That sucks all the way around.
Wow, that sucks out loud, Scrappy. Ugh.
In happier news, we are in Chicago!
I'm sorry, Scrappy. Not fun.
Being in Chicago is fun! Have a blast, Nora.
Have fun in Chicago, Nora!
Ugh, Scrappy. Sorry.
OK, after posting, slept a bit more while listening to NPR. I don't have to be into work until 2:30, so, sleep is a good thing.
They keep talking 2016! Stop it! Please give us a break already.
NO! First there is Thanksgiving. Then there is Christmas. No pushing the holidays all together. ... Wait. That's not... eh. It works for this too.
bt,
I actually only use Silver for the Presidential race because I was pretty pleased with him in 2008. I think there might be a problem with his and other models for senate and house races so if I am really interested/concerned, I go to more local sources for those races and seek out bloggers in those areas of the U.S.
The "surprising" Harry Reid win in NV 2 years ago always sits in the back of mind: polls are really great often (and they were certainly so this time around), but there are some problems sometimes with polling and certain demographic groups - which at present tends to benefit my political leanings, but may not in the future.
