Reply #6: I didn't handicap the Democratic race at the beginning because I was emotionally invested

Whereas a I spent a good deal of time making predictions about the Republican race. Unfortunately I picked Mittens and turned out to be very very wrong. I based my assumption on the fact that the Republicans have picked the establishment backed candidate in pretty much every race in recent history. Romney just didn't have enough of the establishment behind him, though.
