I found it in a little something I call Costanza Punditry. This is where Costanza Punditry comes in. The method is simplicity itself. One only has to find out what the other pundits are saying, then declare the opposite as the actual truth. More often than not, the professional prognosticators will be singing in a chorus, allowing the practitioner of Costanza Punditry to sit back in smug glee as his opposite predictions come true.
Some recent examples are in order here.
Speaking of the Election that Wouldn't Die, as close as two days before the vote the conventional wisdom among the punditocracy was that Al Gore would win the electoral vote, George Bush the popular vote. Well, we all know what happened. Once again the Costanza Pundit comes out on top. So here is the true test. As far as local events go, the conventional wisdom is that no SIUC student stands a chance of getting on the Carbondale City Council.
