Which.....hey..... If I were gifted like that, I'd probably never leave it alone, either.

History Professor who correctly predicted every US Presidential election since 1984 says impeachment of Trump imminent.

He got 2000 wrong and claimed that his system still works because Gore won the popular vote, which then causes issues with his prediction this year. Either he guesses the winner or he just guesses the popular vote winner. Either way, he is 8 of 9.

1 in 512 people should correctly predict the winners of 9 head to head match ups. Being right 8 of 9 times, as he was, makes it to 1 in every 256 people. Not as special. He also admits this impeachment claim isn't based on his system, which has been wrong, just on his gut.



So basically this is all garbage.

Oh, and he showed evidence he had read the article. Sick burn! Total takedown!

He could have really sealed the deal by quoting where I said this article was gospel, but alas he slipped up there.

Still, my ego has taken a licking the likes of which I can only fantasize about for my johnson. Thanks for rubbing it in.

So basically the headline is  "guy with an algorithm that is usually right has a gut feeling about a similar topic". It gets the clicks but it don't mean much. 

(03-21-2017, 07:33 AM)xxlt Wrote: It may not mean much to you. Lichtman (aka as algorithm toting douche with a gut feeling) teaches at one of the most politically active colleges in the country, American University in D.C. And, his book about his gut feeling is being published. That doesn't mean he is right, and it may not mean much to you. But, it is just possible that a man with a PhD in history who has been researching and writing about American politics for decades has a slightly more informed opinion than the person cheering Gracie like "take downs" of my posts on this MB. But is also possible Asimov was wrong and ignorance is just as good as intelligence.

You, on the other hand, seem to conflate the observation that his bizarre, reckless, and in some cases seemingly illegal conduct equates with a deep seated hatred of the man and not merely an ability to observe reality and point accounts of it others have provided.
