I really didn't understand the point Nate Silver was making in his blog post until the very last paragraph:
"Indeed, Mr. Palwenty is in danger of becoming the Gregg Jefferies of politics: the perpetual prospect who never blossoms into more than a league-average politician."
As I life-long Mets fan, I always hoped the hype around Gregg Jefferies would help him overcome his error at third base in the 2nd inning of Game 7 of the 1988 NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Unfortunately that never happened. Which seems to be what Mr. Silver is implying about Gov. Pawlenty.
