    If I told you that you had a five in six chance to roll the dice and not roll a one, and then you rolled the dice and got a one, was what I told you wrong?

      “wrong” is a subjective call dependent on the intelligence of the observer. To some other people the answer isnt ‘wrong’ or ‘right’ its ‘I love my pickup’ or ‘boobs!’ or ‘me no like polls, they say me losing’.

      Their odds predicted the past two elections wrong. What part of this is not getting through?

      There wasn’t a five in six chance for the candidates during either of the previous two elections. So I’m ignoring your example.

      They were wrong. Twice. Enough said.
