This guy has it figured out. Great numbers, insightful commentary–great, great name. Dude is smart.
This is a former baseball stats guy who has moved to politics. And by baseball stats, I mean Baseball Prospectus, the guys who with the help of Lawrence’s own Bill James and Billy Beane (and by help I mean it was all James idea and Beane was the first to implement it.) have completely changed the way people think about baseball, at least those of us who think about baseball.

Talking about Nader voters, with the exception of our beloved Brett: “When a voter indicates that their first choice is Ralph Nader, we can reasonably infer that they do not like Barack Obama. These Nader votes are not coming from people on the progressive left who are trying to play it cute; 2000 taught Democrats a lesson that they won’t forget until they take back the White House.”
