Halperin Fires! Misses!
Nate Silver:
A tight race? It certainly is a tight race, and has been all year. But this, of course, is not really the lead story. The story is that there has been a rather dramatic shift in the
national polling toward Barack Obama in the past 2-4 days, coinciding
with the Wall Street financial crisis. Some pundits will love this,
since it gives them something fresh to talk about. But others, like
those cynical beat writers in the Wrigley Field press box, will be
annoyed, because it means that the the story they were telling us just
a few days ago -- that the Obama campaign was in trouble, that Sarah
Palin was the greatest thing since sliced bread -- has now been more or
less invalidated.
