How this guy got a media reputation as a political whisperer is beyond me.

"What does Bannon think", "Bannon at War the GOP establishment", "Bannon has his finger on the pulse of the GOP base", "Bannon offers to campaign with GOP hopefuls".

On Sunday the fraud stated, "Corey Stewart is the reason Gillespie is going to win,” Stephen K. Bannon, the former White House chief strategist and Trump’s campaign czar, said in an interview. “It was the Trump-Stewart talking points that got Gillespie close. It was embracing Trump’s agenda as personified by Corey’s platform. This was not a competitive race four weeks ago. You could have stuck a fork in Gillespie. He’s closed an enthusiasm gap by rallying around the Trump agenda. And I think the big lesson for Tuesday is that, in Gillespie’s case, Trumpism without Trump can show the way forward. If that’s the case, Democrats better be very, very worried."

When the political whisperer offered his insight the race was thought to be tight (within 3pts). Last night the race went to the Democrat by a whopping 9 points.

The "whisperers" reaction via his journal, "(Gillespie was a) Republican swamp thing".

Bannon's so bad that I actually find myself doing something that I thought was impossible. Rooting for that Owl Mitch McConnell. If you're a GOP candidate and you follow that guy you've got rocks in your head.
