I read that. Total crap. First, Clinton is not popular. The vast majority find him repellent, a majority greatly so. CBC/NYTimes poll of a few days ago revealed that 57% would refuse to vote for Clinton if he could run again. Second, AlGore the Junior is repellent and dishonest. Values are now the most important issue and AlGore the Junior loses badly. Even women can't stand him. Third, polls show that Clinton/AlGore the Junior get little or no credit for the continuing Reagan Boom. That article was a total, absolute joke. Although it does show how the media will use flawed thinking to bolster their man.

The article assumes we'll have continuing prosperity. Even the ever optimistic Larry Kudlow is having doubts about that. Clinton's Fed appointees want to torpedo this market: cnbc.com

These models are unable to take into account the multitude of factors affecting this election. Hell, we don't need a statistical model to tell us that a President or closely identified successor will win the presidency if the economy is good and there is no major international conflict all other things being equal. The very fact that a challenger is doing this well so consistently means that things are not normal, however.....Now, if they could statistically correlate "peace and prosperity" with massive, ongoing scandal; the challenger having unusually high name recognition and positives; the successor being unusually off- putting, and so forth, well, then they might be on to something.......
