My $$$s on Sally Yates(with side bets on Brennan and Lynch).
Sally Yates, American Hero!
OK. Your bet is placed!
You predicted a Sec. Clinton win, correct?
I wouldn't expect any charges against Yates.
Like I said, your bet is placed.

Could be. We'll see, I guess.

The skeptics still don't accept this fact. It is an interesting possible topic I might post; why do so many S&H readers oppose astrology, even though both are cycle theories, and the cycles jive?
Beats me. I don't believe in Astrology, but I also don't not believe in Astrology.
I just don't know enough about it to really have an opinion one way or the other.

The main work I did over the last year was on my point system, and this system predicted Trump would win, since he had the higher score. As I perfected my research, I had three different sets of scores:
1st set: Trump 15-4, Hillary 9-8 (my system from 2012)
2nd set: Trump 8-4, Hillary 12-9 (Springtime 2016 up to the election)
3rd set: Trump 9-4, Hillary 9-11 (revised after election)
The second most important indicator, the new moon before the election, predicted the party in power would win. That would have been Hillary-- except that on the 3 previous occasions where the electoral vote did not match the popular vote, the New Moon predicted the popular vote (seeming to indicate the real trend among the people). I was hoping this would not happen in 2016, although Nate Silver said it might. But it did.
So as it turns out, the two most important indicators I use were both correct, but I made the wrong prediction anyway.

Oh well, you opened the can of worms, Mr. Snowflake
Your problem may be that you let your personal biases cloud your assessment.
(and the fact that you make too many assumptions!
)Why not just do your analysis and let the cards fall where they may?
(Oh wait, that's Tarot.
