@Nate_Cohn Well if you want to be empirical about it the president's approval rating at the midterm (which is the data you're using) historically has almost no correlation with the election outcome 2 years later. — PolitiTweet.org

@Nate_Cohn And yet your article is delving into detail on Waukesha County (based on one Marquette poll?) and Miami-Dade like it's the day before the election. It's offering ridiculous levels of precision that could fool readers who don't know better into disregarding the huge uncertainties. — PolitiTweet.org

@Nate_Cohn But you're *still* missing my point, which is that tipping point analysis requires very high precision data provide meaningful insight. There are many applications for which low precision data could be fine. This isn't one of them. You're using an anvil when you need a hammer. — PolitiTweet.org
