I figured the trash trolls would be out tonight.

The reality is, no one predicted this correctly. No one was willing to stack a bet to affirm Trump's win; but of course the trash trolls don't care. They will continue to hedge and protect their feelings and I will continue to use good data, logic, and reason to make predictions that come true 95% of the time.

This thread will be saved for posterity as another example of Sleeper logic.

Lol it was 100%. Then you got one wrong it became 99%. Now it's 95%.

Few more months and you'll be at a solid 10%!

Actually when he is wrong he comes back with a "I'm right 90%"....then missed his next prediction and went to 91% and now missed another and is up to 95%

The reality is, I spent months and hundreds of posts thumping my chest, mocking and taunting others only to have it blow up in my face. I'm basically on the same page as Tiernan and Footwedge. Book it.
FIFY.

Well, that and he's the undisputed master of walking things back. Like when he predicted that Cleveland would beat Toronto in the NBA playoffs last year 4-0. Then when they lost, it was 4-1. And then he was finally right on the third try at 4-2. And still declared victory on his prediction because he did pick the right team.

The DNC absolutely deserves to be lambasted heavily over this. They rigged the primaries in favor of Clinton and she got absolutely shit dumpstered in this election.

Difficult to blame you for not having the sack to own such a colossal faceplant.

The DNC deserves raked over the coals for deciding to anoint someone who failed to get the nomination 8 years ago solely because of her last name and the fact she could be the first female president, regardless of her overall popularity and trustworthiness. The sort of tone-deaf behavior that turns a person like me away from the party and gives the Rs enough ammo to actually get someone like Trump through.

Yup, I was 100% spot on predicting Sleeper's response. Easy money.

I'd be in favor of that to win back my losses...but I'm pretty sure the odds of Sleeper making that response would be such that I'd have to bet 1000 vCash to win 1.

Everyone has owned it. I am not the only one who predicted a HRC win by a landslide.

Reality.

Polls arent always accurate, of course. Remember the polls for legalizing pot in Ohio? Nearly 2/3 said yes in the polls, but it basically ended up the other way around.

I only go Full Sleeper. I don't hedge like the rest of the population.

I'm also substantial wealthier than the rest of the population. Coincidence? Unlikely.

Would it be appropriate for me to make my one and only post on this thread, and ask that it now be shut down.

Thank you.
