Looking at the primary predictions from 538, it's safe to say Trump and Cruz are finished! Links:

Whenever someone cites 538 as a reason to think the Sanders campaign is doomed, that's a good time to review the collected genius and wisdom of 538:

Why Donald Trump Isn’t A Real Candidate

1. Been saying that for years. n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Right now the two candidates for the democratic side

are separated by the same exact percentage they were on Super Tuesday

Jn fact, when you do not round it, it is 0.5 percent less than it was in Super Tuesday, That be 8.5 percent. IF Bernie does well tonight, as expected, that might go down all the way to 8 percent.

Oh wait, I was supposed to count Supers as well Sorry, teacher, the conure tore up the memo.

6. Those aren't prediction models

They're op eds.

7. Did 538 predict Cruz to win Iowa or Oklahoma or Kansas? Did 538 predict Hillary would lose Colorado

Oklahoma or Minnesota or Nebraska or Kansas or Maine?

8. They try to manufacture consent.

They (and other Establishment Media) seem to have been more successful with Democrats than Republicans this Primary.

Shame really.

[Matariki]

9. Yup.

Didn't they say that Sanders would only win Vermont? Or something like that? Or do they keep changing their 'predictions' as they get them wrong?

[Warren DeMontague]

10. Ted Cruz is simply too squicky. His misshapen head looks like a CD that has been left in a hot car.

It will most likely be Trump.

One mistake we shouldnt make is underestimating Trump, though.

11. I'm old enough to remember when

Nate Silver was poblano on Daily Kos. My confidence never wavered throughout 2008 and 2012 as a result of his numbers.

But since he's decided he'd rather do sports statistics, hired a climate skeptic on for "balance", and turned the political polling over to others, his reputation has gone downhill faster than shit through a goose.
