are pretty damn cocksure statements.  I've seen astrological diaries laughed out of here.  And economic predictions (I'm not talking Jerome or Bonddad) down to the month that future events WILL occur treated with deference on here for the most part being that most Americans are significantly financially illiterate.

Just because Repubs have horrible odds does not an outcome make.  It's that kind of jumping the gun that spells out for apathy when we can impact the election.
