Schlesinger Calls the Battleground States Correctly for Obama

November 7, 2008 RSS Feed Print

Who knew we had a champion in our midst? My colleague on the Thomas Jefferson Street blog, Robert apparently is more of a pro than he thinks. Robert was asked to call the presidential race in 20 battleground states for PoliticsHome.com's daily battleground poll. No one called the states perfectly but Robert topped the list with 18 correct calls. That's pretty impressive if you ask me. Not only did he win the category for mainstream media but he also beat NBC's political guru Chuck Todd. Now that's something to brag about. But he does tell me he can't remember which states he got wrong. I demand a recount.

So now that we know Robert's a star, how did your election predictions turn out?
