For the almost 3 years I have been writing a blog, I have held to the belief that the self-important political pundits like Charlie Cook underestimated Barack Obama's political skills. In November of 2007, Charlie Cook was saying the Presidency was a tight race between Hillary Clinton (D) and Rudy Guiliani (R). Today Cook says the Democrats will lose the House and maybe even the Senate. So Obama has constantly outperformed Cook's opinion of him. .
