Obama Says Nate Silver Picked the Right Turkey


Nate Silver's done it again.

The data guru (or "witch" as some believe) has taken a break from correctly predicting the next U.S. president and brought his magic to Thanksgiving.

During the annual White House Thanksgiving pardon ceremony, Obama quipped that Nate Silver (who also forecasted that Obama would win the election weeks ago) guessed which turkey -- Gobbler or Cobbler -- would win the race to be the next official National Thanksgiving Turkey of the free world.

"Once again Nate Silver nailed it," Obama said, before gesturing a cross over the turkey and completing the pardon. "The guy is amazing."
