Hillary should have tried to get him to advise her campaign. He was just on Morning Joe. He basically said Trump was not gonna win PA. He also said Trump was gonna hemorrhage votes in Northern VA and that is how Obama won there. He said this race is not as close as it seems. I hope he is right. Oh and he was one of the people that sensed that Trump was on to something last year. He saw this coming. Really smart man. Wish he was working for Clinton now.

It is not enough to simply beat Trump. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.

The night before Trump's speech.

He had great insight. He said that Trump had to cover the basics and tell his story and vision to the country. I haven't seen what his post Trump scare fest speech analysis.

Very very bright guy.

She did a nice job fending off pug attacks on Obama, and did so with a smile.

doubt the professionals Hillary did take on board would consider it new insight.

Given all the unforeseen things that can happen, what they really need is a really good seer. "I see...October 30 Romanian hackers take down New England RTO, disrupting power to the region for 6 days, most hospital generators run out after 4 days, government supplies inadequate, most deaths among elderly and ill, but populace very fearful and angry, huge right-wing ad campaign for Trump to keep America safe floods all media through election day." Now, that would be useful.
