Um, because he was going to be joining us to talk in particular about polling, but i do not think he is here yet, so we may have to wait for him. In any case, fortunately we have a panel here that can talk about anything. So i wanted to start out by noting that in the first 20 four 24 hours after the ballot counting started on Election Night, the media and polling classes had declared that the polling was the biggest loser. Playbook said the industry is a wreck. Lots of folks were talking about embarrassed to support trump voters that were skewing the results.
