And now, another round of FiveThirtyEight’s “totally subjective odds” — when our analysts get together and riff on the little data we have to handicap the 2016 presidential nomination from each party.

In this episode, senior editor Micah Cohen talks with editor-in-chief Nate Silver and senior political writer Harry Enten.

Listen in the player above. See the full odds, plus some choice quotes, below.

The Republican Field

Is Scott Walker The New Favorite?

Harry Enten: “I’m not sure if he has what it takes to run a national campaign. I mean, you’ve seen these types of things where he makes foreign policy statements that make you go ‘huh.’ And the real question is, when the press gets going and the press starts eating at him, will he be able to maintain this conservative rhetoric that doesn’t sound crazy. It’s a fine line between those two.”

Nate Silver: “But it is also March, and he is – along with Bush – very actively seeking the nomination. Obama made a lot of mistakes in March of 2007. You have time to iron these things out.” (at 5:40)

Christie Keeps Dropping

Nate: “His numbers are in Donald Trump territory in some of these polls… he’s not a top tier candidate for me.” (8:55)

Rubio Rising

Nate: “I’ve become more convinced that if either Bush or Walker proves flawed – and they both have issues – that Rubio becomes the alternative.” (13:00)

The Democratic Field

The Email Scandal That Wasn’t

Nate: “I don’t see a huge impact from the email scandal. On the one hand it’s triggered a lot of attention. On the other hand, it’s not clear voters are that concerned about it. And it should have been an opportunity for some other Democratic candidate to surface … for Elizabeth Warren or Martin O’Malley to leak a story to Politico to say ‘Hey I’m serious about running here’ … and you haven’t seen much of that at all.” (17:00)
