I love FiveThirtyEight.com. I followed it very closely during the 2008 US Presidential election and I thought Nate Silver wrote well thought out and balanced posts. I’ve watched him do a couple of interviews during that time, most memorably an interview on the Colbert Report. On that interview he seemed very polished. I just saw him do an interview with Keith Olberman earlier tonight about his predictions for the 2009 Oscars. Oh my Lord, he’s a total geek!
