Here's some real science, backed up by research: Experts who get immediate feedback and practice for years (think chess masters, musicians) get better with practice. "Experts" who predict one-off events, like elections, actually do worse than random guessing, no matter how much experience they have.

The Onion has sent the following letter to all 535 members of Congress. This special edition will be in their physical mailboxes as they return from recess tomorrow.
We hope it inspires them to continue to cower as our essential liberties are systematically dismantled.

If only I believed in the power of prayer. He would have vaporized by now, or melted into the floorboards like the Wicked Witch.
