Ann Points Out The Stupidity of Prognostication

SEE HERE Ann Coulter has a point. Actually Ann almost always has a point and usually a pretty good one. Her point here is that if Republicans had supported more of the Tea Party candidates and frankly the voice of the people things would likely have gone even better. Her other point, actually her main point, is that demographics dominates political prediction and fewer talking heads talking about guessing which party is going to take however many seats and more time spent featuring the candidates would have produced even bigger Republican gains. The fact of the matter is that Republicans are smarter on average and have better ideas, so the more exposure they get the more likely they are to win. Everyone doesn't agree with that, but then I think stupid candidates should lose regardless of party.
