Rarely-wrong mock convention picks Clinton

[agdlp]

With an unmatched record for accuracy on the line, the students of Washington and Lee University on Saturday picked Hillary Rodham Clinton to win the Democratic nomination in the 100th Mock Convention held on the historic campus in the mountains of the Shenandoah Valley

7. W&L might make a lot of noise about their MockCon

But the fact is they're not "rarely wrong". Their record is 18 out of 32, a hair over 56%, says so right here http://mockcon.wlu.edu/pressclip_010208.htm . That's a crap shoot. This is also the first time since 1952 where there's no incumbent president or vice president from either party running for re-election. This is hardly a typical election, and whether their record will have another mar on it is yet to be seen.

I get email from them, and they also listed Harold Ford as the head of the DNC. I'm not quite sure they're 100% there.
