Of course, I am data-mining here (as is everybody else, but I digress). In any case, the last rule suggests there is a better than 80% chance that the GOP will lose in November. But I don't believe it for a second. There really just isn't enough data here to build any kind of useful model.

OK but at least you can't say that you have no reason to think otherwise.


More from Paul Krugman on the upcoming election:

He thinks it will come down to how well Obama will attract the working class white voter.

One thing not mentioned by Krugman that could be huge: Obama's choice of running mate. I think Hillary is locking herself out of contention with her recent weirdness. How about John Edwards? I would like that. Edwards is very concerned about the problems of working-class Americans. He's the right age for the job. He can help in the south.
