Gosh, this poll reminds us so much of another poll … one we kept seeing in 2016 about who would win the presidential election.
How did that go again?
Huh.
Republicans have a 1 in 5 chance of keeping control of the House, while Democrats have about a 4 in 5 chance of winning control of the House. https://t.co/lyNh30TEIw pic.twitter.com/fq6g6kanCj

Sure.
But then again …
Same odds that brought us President Hillary Clinton.

Ugh, even seeing the words President Hillary Clinton makes us throw up in a little in our mouths.
Note, Toobin is an analyst on CNN and we’re pretty sure if he’s questioning whether or not there will be a blue tidal wave it’s probably a fair guess that Democrats aren’t doing as well as this poll shows.
Or Democrats are claiming.
Blue tidal wave, that still makes us laugh.
Dems weren’t exactly as amused with Toobin’s tweet as we were:
Cool fundamental misunderstanding of statistics and polling Toobin

They just can’t deal, lol.
You know how odds work right Toobin?

But Trump! Russia! Mueller!
Americans are pissed. Dems are voting. They can't so easily steal this time… voting numbers will be MUCH greater.

HA HA HA HA.
We mean, yeah, sure.
Please say nothing if you don't understand statistics. Better yet, educate yourself as you have done in law, politics, etc.
Ignorance of math & science is a serious problem in our society – the last thing we need is for well-known "smart" people to encourage it.

Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
