Yale economist Ray C. Fair has updated his forecast and says that based on the facts at hand right now, President Obama is likely to win the 2012 election in a landslide.
Fair tells the New York Times that there "is considerable data behind his election prediction, using his econometric models. One produces a forecast for the overall, or macro, economy, while another uses economic inputs to forecast the national popular vote. At the moment, he says, the data augurs well for the president."
Said Fair: "The model certainly suggests that if the economy is good and improving as an election approaches, it's very difficult to defeat an incumbent president
Hey...I think you've come across a huge way to save lots of money and help turn our economy around. This is a great idea you have, Ty. You should forward this to the US Congress, the League of Women Voters, and the Presidential Council on Elections and tell them to cancel the 2012 Presidential election. Since it is impossible to prove Mr. Fair wrong, why waste the money and efforts? Tweet Barry and tell him he's good until 2016...he'll be thrilled to know he doesn't have to run, just show up. Good work, dude.
