How did the panelists do in 2016?
I don't think they've met yet?.....thats what I was wondering, if they would this year?
Here is some more notes I made back then: From what I recall ALL of the above panelists said Obama would win and of course, he did. But like I said, it "seemed" back then, to have been cut and dried as to the natal charts Transits & Progressions....for the nominees.

[FONT="]Some did not for some reason use the easier charts - like Jim Eshelman and his followers, tried to use the Quotidian which they were very nice (Tim was), to teach to me and believe me I"m not an easy person to teach! l With my Mercury Sun Mars in Capricorn, I'm a slow learner

[FONT="]But the Quotidian chart for some reason simply didn't pan out that time.

In his concluding passage he said:
Quote:[/FONT]
[FONT="]If the standard rules that winning the seat of president indicate favorable astrological conditions, then I would have to say that Obama has the edge. If a connection to specific dates through the releasing is an indication, then Romney might pull off an upset. As it is I cannot say for certain, but I think Obama will win a 2nd term; because as Watson and Brennan have said, the election date falls on a mirror of Romney's participation in his fathers loss against Barry Goldwater that repeats on election night; and because he has shown a propensity to be horrendously out of step with the zeitgeist of the times under such periods. So I would suspect that in the month before the election, Romney feeling pretty good says some things carelessly that he will later regret due to his Mercury retrograde in fall. However, as incomprehensible as it seems currently, I do think that this election is going to be a close one and there could be a Truman/Dewey style upset announcement that later gets reversed due to Mercury retrograde or some similar dispute over election irregularities. It is also hard to imagine Romney's profections this year (Sun, Mercury, Mars all handing over to Saturn) being supportive of becoming president. In any case, Romney has some very favorable things going for him in 2016 so if he was to win this election, it could indicate that he would stay for 2 terms. If not, we might see him win the next election if he decides to run. )[/FONT]

[FONT="]Note: Now years later we can assess this post and say it was TRUE after all, that Romney likely realy hurt himself, by "saying some things carelessly"...which "later he will regret due to Mercury rx in fall"[/FONT]

[/FONT]ACTUAL ROMNEY FAUX PAS - DURING THE RUN FOR PRESIDENT 2012:
[FONT="]Maybe that was when he didn't realize he was being taped and the tape would get out of the room he was addressing when he said the rest of us in society, (those who didn't work or were on Social Security, etc. were not contributors to Society or something really nasty - he also said something along the lines that people who are from other countries do not belong here, and should "self-deport". i recall he was in a room full of rich friends who donated to his campaign. [/FONT]
[FONT="](typical Republican nastiness)
[/FONT]
[FONT="]He also said something about his own Economic Plan would be the "Bush Plan", which of course, ended up pushing us all into the 2008 Recession (almost a depression) .[/FONT]

[FONT="]I was asking my husband who has better recall and memory then I do, what exactly did Romney say or do that got him in so much hot water back then. He also reminded me of England, as soon as he & his wife got off the plane in England, he insulted the English!!

[/FONT]Mitt’s insults, mistakes, and blunders abroad aren’t gaffes. They actually represent his true worldview.

[FONT="]Mitt Romney’s not-so-excellent adventure abroad (“Romneyshambles,” the Brits are calling it) has been many things: shabby, hilarious, scandalous, an enlivening hoot to a dreary election season. One thing it shouldn’t be, though, is surprising.
