    Biden Coming To MD on Election Eve, Oz Leads Fetterman By 2% in PA

    Wait, what? According to The Hill, Joe Biden is coming to my hometown of Columbia, MD and Howard County for a rally. Is he aware that Democrats outnumber Republcians by almost a 2.5:1 margin and the Democratic candidate for Governor and US Senator are leading by 20-30 percentage points? Am I missing something?

    President Biden on Monday will campaign for Democrats in Maryland to mark the day before Election Day.

    He will travel Columbia, Md., and participate in a rally for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the White House announced on Tuesday. Columbia is about 45-minutes away from the White House in Howard County.

    If it is late enough in the day and available enough for the public to attend, I might just have to figure out a way to attend just for the novelty of it.

    To have a poll for this thread, we have a new poll from Emerson College for hte state of Pennsylvania that shows Dr. Mehmet Oz moving ahead of Democrat John Fetterman.

    US SENATE – PENNSYLVANIA (Emerson>
    Mehmet Oz (R) 48%
    John Fetterman (D) 46%

    This poll was done October 28-31 among 1000 likely voters.

      Sorry about the Phillies Bitter, but look at this way, the Mets no-hit the Phillies early in the season and after that, the Phillies season has been great. Maybe the same will happen in the World Series.

      Just hope you don’t have any former Mets on the mound to jinx you…oh wait…

      Columbia MD is only 60 miles from here, my horse can make it in 4 hours. Maybe I can meet Dave at the Biden rally. If I head south through Pleasureville, I can then head west through Brodbecks and Sticks, then Black Rock into MD. Piece of cake.

    8. jason says:

      Evidently Bolduc skewered Hassan on the cost of living, inflation and the economy. Plus he was assaulted.

      I look forward to saying I was wrong to call him a deadender.

    9. jason says:

      Yes, there is a Sticks, PA.

    10. JeffP says:

      Thanks for sharing the Lake response Tina. Every time I watch Lake or DeSantis respond to the Woke Commie Media I am impressed. They are both going to win in blowouts.

      After listening to them. I then think about how Trump would have responded sometimes and think about how many independents and swing voters he just lost. Trumps blunt direct approach worked in 2016 but he was running against a candidate that had negatives as high as his.

    11. jason says:

      A different Trump would not have been Trump.

    12. DW says:

      I did not watch Biden’s speech, so can I assume this great uniter failed to mention the shooter who nearly killed Rep. Steve Scalise when this leftist shot up the Republican baseball practice?

    13. jason says:

      I just read where NH does not have EV? That should help Bolduc.

    14. DW says:

      14 – that and the fact that there is no large population center where someone can stuff an extra 20,000 ballots into the box and no one would notice.

    15. DW says:

      And can I also safely assume no one in the morning news shows is asking if the Bolduc attacker last night was inspired by Biden’s speech to lash out at Republicans?

    16. DW says:

      Not a BOOM because Johnson has not trailed in a poll since 9/15

      Siena – WISCONSIN

      Barnes 45%
      Johnson 47%

    17. jason says:

      The Bolduc assault won’t make national MSM news. But you can bet it will be talked about in NH.

    18. jason says:

      Don’t you love the MSM?

      NBC reporter: “Voter ID Laws disproportionately impact trans people.”

    19. DW says:

      19 – yeah, that’s an urgent concern on the mind of voters, much more so than inflation, crime, and open borders.

    20. Phil says:

      Voter ID Laws disproportionately impact trans people.

      yeah, Democrats. Run on that. Pure winner.

      Never mind the fact that it’s plain silly.

    21. jason says:

      This is not “disinformation” I guess.

      BrooklynDadDefiant!??
      If you think inflation is rough, wait until you try to pay for sh-t after Mike Lee and the Republicans END SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE.”

    22. jason says:

      I guess this is not a “lie”…

      “It’s great to be at Florida Memorial University, one of the nation’s great [Historically Black Colleges and Universities],” Biden said during a rally on Tuesday night. “I’m a big fan of HBCUs, I got my start at one of those other HBCUs, Delaware State University.”

      Biden never attended DCU, he went to University of Delaware.

    23. dblaikie says:

      It has been a long time for me, fellow posters. After what happened in 2020 I decided to take a long break from politics. I quit watching the news. The terrible hypocricy of the pandemic drove me into the world of Kdramas (they are really good). Yes, go ahead and make fun of me Jason, but I like kdramas. However you will be pleased to know that I haven’t totally dropped off the deep end, I still love my single malt. Walt, I did make a one hundred dollar donation to the Presbyterian Disaster Fund which covered our friendly bet. And Robbie (Wormtongue), there is still no hope for you! Bitter, I hope everything is going well for you and your family.

      Well now I am back. I will never be the news and polical junkie I once was but for the last couple of months I have been reading the threads. Election night should be a good one for the USA. The damage to our Country the last two years has made me weep. I still can’t believe that we have given ultimate power to a person who has short term memory problems. And the wokeness of the press drives me crazy. Through the years I have saddly learned that one good election night will not right all the wrongs. My hope and prayer is that somehow those who are newly elected will not become corrupted by the cess pool of Washington. Who knows maybe someone will emerge who will not be used like a dirty dish cloth, but will instead discover that they can wield a sword of justice.

    24. Wes says:

      Good to see you back, Db.

    25. DW says:

      25 – yes, we live in a world where right is called wrong, and wrong is called right. Where evil is virtue and virtue is evil. As we saw in Biden’s speech last night, lies are true and truth is a lie.

      I recall once hearing about the testimony of a man who lived most of his life behind the iron curtain of the USSR. The most difficult aspect of life in that environment was not the poverty, and not even the control, it was enduring the constant barrage of the propaganda lies shoved down their throats every day by the communist government.

      That is exactly what Mr. Biden did last night and in his prior speech. Everything Democrats are guilty of doing, they accuse Republicans of, and hold us in contempt. It is maddening. Not ONE journalist anywhere last night spoke about Biden’s comments and then countered that Rep. Steve Scalise was nearly killed by a leftist kook who shot up the GOP baseball practice.

    26. Wes says:

      Muslims aren’t a huge voting bloc in the US, but they have been a reliably Dem demographic since 2004. That may be changing and benefiting Republicans in marginal areas thanks to Dems’ increasingly salacious stances on social issues:

    29. jason says:

      I just asked where is dblaikie a few threads ago, an lo and behold.

      Welcome back.

      You are right. One election will not solve our problems, not even a really good election.

      We are teaching our children to be socialists. We have been for decades. The results are obvious.

      Until that changes, I am afraid for the future of the country.

      Wtf is a kdrama?

    30. jason says:

      Actually I prefer DeSantis be the nominee.

      You know, the guy Amoral Scumbag calls a total bum, Trump Clone and clown.

    31. DW says:

      jason the best thing that has come out of covid is the huge increase in home schooling. The more kids who grow up without their minds stuffed with the foolishness of communism and socialism and all the entitlements, the more chance we have of survival.

    34. jason says:

      Yes, and parents have now taken a bigger interest in what schools are feeding their children, what books they are reading, etc

    37. Wes says:

      If Bolduc does win, while he’s not my preferred candidate, I’ll be glad. Maggie the Moonbat would never have won had Kelly Ayotte not had her vote split in 2016, and Hassan has voted reflexively to the left, her current faux moderation notwithstanding.

      This could well be an instance where Schumer miscalculated. If so, I’ll be glad to admit I was wrong about Bolduc.

    38. dblaikie says:

      Jason, glad I can teach you. A kdrama is a Korean Drama. They are all over at netflix. Try one while you have a nice big steak.

    39. DW says:

      I prefer DeSantis be the nominee as well. Checks the most boxes, and no one else comes close. Trump is 76 and in two years will be 78. I get that he is in great health, but even if he ran and got elected, he’s a one-termer who would finish at 82. Sorry, just too many problems with that approach.

      DeSantis is in his prime, he is extremely popular, he is a tremendous leader, and he starts with Florida off the table, and should he be wise enough to carry on the Trump coalition, he starts with strong leads in OH and GA, and small leads in WI, MI, and PA.

      DeSantis is the best choice.

      “The guy who showered with his daughter is telling you you’re a bad person.”

    45. dblaikie says:

      Ron DeSantis is the worst nightmere for the Dems. He is a vetran. He looks good. His wife and family are wholesome. He is a great and unafraid speaker. But most important, he is right on the issues. I wonder when the fake women will come forward, to accuse him of something? You know, someone he went to school with who has been in counseling for 15 years because what he did on a dark and stormy night.

      I think Robbie needs to just admit that Liz Chaney is his candidate and that he believes that she is future for the GOP.

      Amoral Scumbag blames Mike Lindell for a Canadian nudist activist who lives in a bus adorned with rainbow and BLM flags for attacking Paul Pelosi.

      You can’t make this sh-t up.

    47. Wes says:

      Democrats have dusted off Barack Obama and sent him to battleground states.

      On the one hand, this makes sense because Obama is significantly more popular than Biden and is the most well-liked living former Dem President. On the other, Obama’s record post 2008 of helping Democrats win is not all that great. He was a disaster for Dems in 2010 and 2014 and helped them very little to not at all in 2016, 2018, and 2020. Since 2022 is going to be more like the first two elections than the last three, I don’t know why Obama’s even wasting his time. He should just sit on the sidelines while Dems take it on the chin nationally.

    48. DW says:

      jason, if he even wished to start to try to gain ANY credibility here, he could start by saying, sorry I was wrong about this kook–I jumped the gun.

      But he won’t. So he has ZERO credibility and he will never have any here.

    49. jason says:

      He only regurgitates leftwing talking points he reads at whatever leftist cesspools he hangs out in.

      On Tuesday night he will be here to either say Rs won “despite Trump” or that Rs lost “because of Trump”.

      Bet on it.

    53. Chicon says:

      I’m listening to Baris from yesterday. He says a 50+ seat gain in the House is possible because of the recent drastic shift of white suburban women back to the GOP. He thinks mid 30’s is likely, up to 50+ is possible.

    54. Chicon says:

      54 – wasn’t Gibbs one of those “bad” candidates we heard about during primary season?

    55. Meldrim says:

      #24, Wes, I remember Ralston in 2014 warning everyone for the last couple of weeks before the election that, based on the underperforming Democratic early vote, the GOP was going to sweep in Nevada; he isn’t quite there yet this year, but his comments regarding the early vote certainly are trending in that direction. And with the Emerson polls of the four U.S. House districts giving the GOP candidates an average lead of 10% (NV has three Democrat-leaning CDs that should flip R this year plus one comfortably R district), it looks like it’s going to be a bloodbath, with nearly all Democrats up this year as the victims. Hopefully, the GOP can regain the state legislature even with districts drawn by Democrats for their advantage.

    56. EML says:

      I heard here yesterday that we need to completely abandon suburban white women because their vote can’t help us win.

    57. Chicon says:

      58 – I don’t think that’s what you read….

      A strategy built around SWW – without attending to rural and middle class voter – is what was described as a losing strategy. Nobody said not to seek out their votes.

    60. DW says:

      Given that the GOP platform is:

      1) Punish crime and get it under control
      2) Reduce inflation by ending this absurd Democratic Party war against fossil fuels.
      3) Stop ramming CRT down the throats of kids in school against the parents’ wishes.
      4) Secure the borders and stop this Democratic Party madness.
      5) Strengthen our military and stop using it for woke experiments.

      …and the Democrat Party platform is:

      1) Get more abortions.
      2) Ban automobiles that run on gas.
      3) Republicans are terrorists who will end Social Security and end voting.
      4) The flag, past American heroes, patriotism, love of country–all these things are evil.
      5) All children should be encouraged to have their genitals mutilated so they will never enjoy intimacy or have children.

      The GOP should be able to get a pretty broad coalition of voters—like most everyone except Robbie and that Pelosi attacker.

    67. DW says:

      And that GA poll asked the horse-race questions on page 33 and 41, after asking a whole bunch of questions including Trump favorability.

    68. Meldrim says:

      Wes, yes, Muslim Americans have voted heavily Democrat since 2004, with the Dearborn vote being the best manifestation of the change. In truth, though, Muslims weren’t giving Republicans big margins prior to 2004, either, except for the 2000 presidential election, when they voted heavily for Bush-Cheney. On an unrelated matter, the Democrats’ VP nominee happened to be a very pro-Israel Orthodox Jew ….

      If Tudor Dixon does well among Muslims in Wayne County, for which there is anecdotal evidence, it could be enough to put her over the top in the MI gubernatorial race. Actually, I think that she could win even without overperforming with that segment, but it certainly would make her election easier.

      Oh, and DW, yes, Gibbs was one of those “bad candidates” that the Democrats boosted in the primary to defeat a Republican who would have had an easier time winning (Peter Meijer). If Gibbs wins in MI-03 (which was made more Democratic in redistricting, but not Democratic enough to overcome a wave, and where even SUSA has Gibbs up by 3%), it will mean that Michigan will send two black conservative Republicans to Congress next January (John James is a lock to pick up MI-10) and ZERO black Democrats. This will be the first election since *1954* in which Michigan will not send at least one black Democrat to Congress, and this despite having two black-majority (or near majority; blacks certainly are a majority of the Democrat electorate that decides the winner in those two overwhelmingly D districts) congressional districts. I think that, if Dixon wins narrowly, one of the reasons might be decreased black turnout in the Detroit area because the two Democratic nominees in the two black CDs are a Palestinian American and an Indian American instead of an African American.

    69. DW says:

      and with that poll, there’s your answer as to why Biden is campaigning in IL, MD, CA and NM instead of GA.

    70. Meldrim says:

      If that Echelon poll is correct and Walker gets 51%, then we won’t even need to wait for a December 6 runoff.

    71. Phil says:

      A little skeptical of that poll simply because Kemp is nowhere near up 12 in any other poll. Most have him up about 7….but even if you go 12 pts -7 pts and it equals a five point Republican skew that would still leave Walker’s lead at 2. That’s more reasonable but that’s plenty. There is no way Walker loses a runoff with a two point lead.

    72. Phil says:

      Baris says he should have his Arizona poll out later this evening. Been polling Arizona the last three days. Said this morning that there has been a very large shift to Republicans among independents.

    73. jason says:

      Well educated white women in the suburbs have been trending liberal way before Trump. This trend started to accelerate in the 1990’s. And it is hard to separate it from the fact academia has become almost entirely dominated by liberal agendas. To blame it on Trump and pretend it is a passing phenomenon is pure intellectual dishonesty.

      “College Graduates — Women Especially — Have Shifted Away From The GOP
      Six in 10 white women with college degrees identify as Democrats or Democratic-leaning, compared to around one-third who identify as Republican or Republican-leaning. That’s up from a nearly even split in the early 1990s. Meanwhile, college-educated men are roughly evenly split, whereas they were strongly Republican in the early 1990s.”

      There was a slight reversal of the trend in the 2010 election, and there might be one now driven by specific circumstances (woke education, inflation, etc.).

      But long term, the GOP cannot survive as a strictly suburban/rural coalition party. It needs to make inroads into working class, minorities, exurban and even urban voters that used to vote Democratic.

      The EMLs and Amoral Scumbags of the world may hate the idea, but there is no escaping the facts.

      I don’t know about radical, but it is certain simplistic and sophomoric.

      Contrary to what you read here, it doesn’t happen by accident.

      You need to have an agenda that appeals to enough people that allows you to win. That agenda is going to be more popular with some demographics than others. So be it.

      “Trying to get as many votes from as many people”: is not a winning strategy, if it was nobody would ever lose an election.

      The two pollsters for Fox are a Democratic loon and a “Republican” Never Trumper pollster. This is what passes as a “bipartisan” polling firm these days according to Fox.

      See, the problem with you jason is that you are an absolute f*cking idiot who equates suburbanites with white college-educated soccer moms. You seem too stupid to understand that more than half the country is considered suburbs and that there are more non college educated suburbanites than college educated suburbanites.

      Many of the female voters than Trump drove away come from BLUE COLLAR working class suburban families. Now that he’s not on the ticket, they are coming back.

      Again, I am capable of acknowledging both Trump’s failures and his succeses. Brainwashed cultists such as yourself are incapable of acknowledging his failures. Trump has a major problem with female voters that other Republicans don’t. He lost the popular vote by 7 million in 2020, a feat last accomplished by Bob Dole 24 years prior. Time to acknowledge Trump’s epic failure and move on to better candidates.

      Get it? Well educated (college graduates). I made clear I was not referring to non-college suburbanites. Non-college suburbanites are exactly the demographic I think the GOP should target.

      You are unhinged because you got caught on your biggest lie yet, and several people here called you on it.

      Maybe EML should read the Constitution instead of regurgitating one of the Dems favorite talking points.

      The election is decided by the EC, I know this might be news to EML. A popular vote election would be conducted entirely differently, the candidates strategies would be different, the campaigns would be markedly different, how money was spent would be entirely different.

      Right now, Rs don’t care if they lose CA by 4 million votes, they just can’t lose WI by 20k, GA by 12 k and AZ by 10k.

      The election was actually decided by 42k votes in 3 states. It was that close.

    100. EML says:

      Where DID you hear that, you lying POS?
      =============================
      From you, you dumb f*ck:

      Rs can no longer win presidential elections with a suburban vote strategy. Without working class votes in swing states, specifically the rust belt/upper midwest, there is no path for Republicans.

      Again, because you are too f*cking stupid to understand that suburbs != white college educated soccer moms. Absolutely the Republican strategy has to be suburbs + rurals (which together comprise 70% of the country) because the 30% that is urban goes Dem by a large margin. Trump pushes away millions of blue collar female voters, the voters you say that we need to win, so why go with this loser who takes millions of votes off the table for Republicans? The only explanation is that you are a brainwashed cultist.

    101. EML says:

      The election was actually decided by 42k votes in 3 states. It was that close.

    105. EML says:

      So you refuse to acknowledge that Trump has a female voter problem?

    106. jason says:

      “Trump pushes away millions of blue collar female voters”

      You are a pathological liar. Trump INCREASED his margin with white women from 2016 to 2020.

      “According to the Pew analysis, Trump won white voters by 12 percentage points, 55 percent to 43 percent, down from 15 points in 2016. Biden narrowed Trump’s margin among white men — from 30 points in 2016, to 17 points in 2020 — but Trump won white women by a larger spread (7 points) than he won them in 2016 (2 points).”

      https://www.politico.com/news/2021/06/30/new-trump-poll-women-hispanic-voters-497199

    107. jason says:

      Trump didn’t lose because of white women.

      He lost due to minute changes in the distribution of his votes (won FL by a larger margin, lost WI because of slightly lower margin) and mainly because he lost white men, not women.

    108. EML says:

      Trump lost female voters by 15 points in 2020 and by a whopping 23 points in Virginia, where Youngkin lost them by only 7 points.

      So you refuse to acknowledge that Trump has a female voter problem?

    109. jason says:

      REPUBLICANS have a problem with women, or vice versa.

      Women have been voting more Dem than men for decades.

      Long before Trump.

    110. jason says:

      but Trump won white women by a larger spread (7 points) than he won them in 2016 (2 points)”

      Not that easy to understand.

      VA is straw argument. Trump didn’t win VA in 2016 OR in 2020, so VA is not why he lost.

      But of course, you know that.

    111. jason says:

      Huh, not that hard to understand.

    112. EML says:

      I live in the textbook definition of suburbia. My county and my voting block has voted for every Republican president since Lincoln except 1964. In 2016, Trump won my voting block by 13.6 points (888 for Trump, 663 for Hillary and 103 for other). In 2020, Trump LOST my voting block by 0.3, the second Republican nominee to ever do so (907 Biden, 900 Trump, 46 other). And it’s because women came out of the woodwork to vote against Trump.

    113. jason says:

      I propose a truce.

      I admit Trump is unpopular with many college educated women in the suburbs and you admit Rs need a strategy that goes way beyond college educated suburbanites to include working class people and minorities both in and out of suburbs.

      Deal?

    114. jason says:

      I live in the textbook definition of suburbia.”

      Since I proposed a truce, I will leave this teed up ball and not swing at it.

    115. EML says:

      REPUBLICANS have a problem with women, or vice versa.
      ============================
      But Trump has far more of a women voter problem. Are you so brainwashed that you can’t admit that?

      Trump lost women in Virginia by 23 points while Youngkin only lost by 7. Young single urban females vote Democrat by a wide margin. They are not our target. We are after the suburban and married vote. Trump repels this demographic, the very demographic you say that we need to win. Why would you want to nominate the guy who repels the voters that you yourself say we need to win?

    116. jason says:

      Interesting comment at Predictit regarding NV, and somewhat germane to this conversation.

      “Who would’ve those thought pandering to suburban white women and post grads wouldn’t work in a state with very few suburban white women and post grads?”

    117. EML says:

      Republicans at some point will need a strategy for winning the college educated vote. Percentage of the population that never attended college:

      65+: 47%
      50-64: 41%
      35-49: 35%
      25-34: 34%

      As the older generation dies off, the country becomes more and more college educated.

    118. Jeff G. says:

      Wain, that’s why I moved to North Carolina 16 years ago.

    119. jason says:

      I know it looks like I wrote this but I didn’t.

      “Losing a state like Nevada is a sign that Dems once formidable multi-ethnic working class base is collapsing. Considering Hispanics are a rapidly growing demographic and college educated white people are a shrinking demographic I’m more then ok with this trade.”

    120. jason says:

      As the older generation dies off, the country becomes more and more college educated.”

      Yes, but more diverse college educated also.

    121. EML says:

      I heard from the HAGs here that the only Republican Hispanics will vote for is Trump because of the machismo.

    122. jason says:

      They are also moving out of suburbs. Some returning to inner cities that have been gentrified. Others to exurbs and even rural areas.

    123. jason says:

      The favorable trend for Hispanics in the GOP can be sustained post-Trump but it won’t be by accident and it won’t be by running against Trump.

      DeSantis might win Dade county. That would be momentous. Yes, Dade Hispanics have a lot more Cubans and Venezuelans who are anti-communist than other Hispanic areas that are primarily Mexican/Central America/Puerto Rican but still he can use it as evidence he can attract Hispanics.

      Rs have an opportunity to build on what Trump has brought to the table. But it won’t happen with TDS and scurrilous attacks on Trump.

    124. jason says:

    128. jason says:

      The Gov. had 3 cooperating defendants who pled guilty to seditious conspiracy. Their plea deals require them to testify in trial. They claimed in their pleas there was a conspiracy to use force to keep Joe Biden from becoming President.

      The Govt DID NOT call them as witnesses.

      I said I think DeSantis should be the face of the R party going forward rather than Trump. That is why I prefer Trump not to run and DeSantis be the nominee.

      I said I don’t think it will serve the party to have a Trump/DeSantis confrontation, which could damage both of them, especially (and more importantly) DeSantis. IF there is such a confrontation, I would probably support the one that polls best against the Dems.

      I said I don’t think DeSantis (yet) has shown he can attract the same winning coalition Trump did because I don’t see him as being as competitive with working class voters in the all important rust belt/upper midwest states, specifically OH, PA, MI, WI and MN. This is my main reservation about DeSantis.

      “María-Elena López, who held a variety of positions under [Juan] Cuba in [Miami-Dade] county party, saw this shift taking place in real time. She believes that there is no real mystery to it: While Trump successfully portrayed himself as a populist achieving hard-won economic growth—signing tax cuts into law, touting a record-shattering stock market, boasting the lowest Hispanic unemployment rate in history—Democrats came across as a bunch of out-of-touch idealogues. Promises of shared social progress, she told me, offend the sensibilities of many first- and second-generation immigrants who hate the idea of government handouts.

      “We’re not a political party, we’re a charity. And you know what? These people don’t want charity,” López said. “These immigrants come here to make money and keep their families safe. They are not here because the sea levels are rising, or because of social justice, or anything else. We’re out there talking about racism and the Green New Deal and defunding the police, and we’re freaking them out.”

    174. Chicon says:

      177 – if all his predictions in those races are correct, I believe the Senate is 50/50. If so, is he saying that there is a 55% chance of one of Masters, Oz, Bolduc or O’Dea winning (and a 55% chance of him being a moron)?

    175. Meldrim says:

      To state the obvious, Nate Silver is a Dem hack. I would place the odds of winning at 90-10 for Laxalt, 80-20 for Walker (and maybe 50-50 for an outright win without a runoff), 60-40 for Oz, 54-46 for Masters, 53-47 for Bolduc, and 30-70 for O’Dea. And I don’t know what odds Silver gives to Smiley, but I would put her at 38-62 or so.

    176. jason says:

      The demographic time bomb is to believe the R party can survive on a coalition of suburban college whites and rural whites.

    177. Meldrim says:

      No, Chicon, if Silver’s odds are correct, it would be a 51R U.S. Senate (with Fetterman picking up Toomey’s PA seat, but Laxalt and Walker picking up D seats).

    178. jason says:

      177 – if all his predictions in those races are correct, I believe the Senate is 50/50.”

      No, it’s 51-49. Oz is a hold not a pickup.

      So if only Walker and Laxalt win, that is +1 for Rs.

    179. jason says:

      To get to 54 Rs have to win all five of Laxalt, Oz, Walker, Masters and Bolduc.

      “The demographic time bomb is to believe the R party can survive on a coalition of suburban college whites and rural whites.”
      __________

      That goes without saying. But it still would be foolish not to try to hold as many suburban white Anglos as possible without sacrificing rural, blue-collar urban, Hispanic, Asian and black voters. Fortunately, there are many issues that cut across these demographic lines and can lead to the GOP winning a majority of the electorate in battleground states for years to come. The trick is not to paint any demographic group with a wide brush and ignore them (or, even worse, insult them); getting 35% of suburban Jews is far better than getting only 20% of them. Saying “we’ll never get those votes” is a surefire self-fulfilling prophecy.

    182. Meldrim says:

      “To get to 54 Rs have to win all five of Laxalt, Oz, Walker, Masters and Bolduc.”
      ______________

      Yup. And that was my exact prediction in a pool that I filled out 9 days ago (where I predicted that Smiley and O’Dea would fall short). I also predicted 33 R governorships and 248 Rs in the House.

      Of course. You need policies that appeal to college educated suburbanites too. There are a lot of them. But there has to be a direction, a focus, a base. The groups you are mentioning can vote GOP, but not as some accessory to a college educated suburban strategy. The GOP has to appeal to these groups long term. It can’t be a trickle down effort.

    194. Wes says:

      It was better than that.

    201. Wes says:

      That’s possible simply because of the environment, Jason, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Mastriano is scarcely even campaigning at this point. Ironically that’s helping Oz because he doesn’t have to go on the defensive about Mastriano.

      At this point, I’m saying Shapiro wins by a minimum of 10. This was a huge missed opportunity for the PAGOP.

      I expect that Mastriano will have a huge turnout by percentage of rural voters but there are fewer rural voters spread throughout the state. I hope he wins but I doubt he will. Mastriano is not on tv here. Maybe he runs ads in Jason’s area.

      Fetterman is running ads linking Oz to Mastriano. Ironically, that may get some more Mastriano voters to support Oz.

      Been doing a little research on Biden
      appointees.

      Accd. to Gallop polls:

      “Currently, 7.1% of U.S. adults identify as LGBT, up from 5.6% in 2020, 4.5% in 2017 and 4.1% in 2016. Between 2012 and 2015, the range was 3.5% to 3.9%”

      Interesting that the U.S. has gone from
      3.5% in 2012 to 7.1% in 2022, but that is another story…

      Biden himself claims that nearly 14% of his 1500 appointees are LGBTQ
      (not that there is anything wrong with that, Cow adds parenthetically)
      *************************************
      So, LBGTQ are overrepresented in Biden admin.!

      “WASHINGTON, June 1 (Reuters) – Nearly 14% of U.S. President Joe Biden’s 1,500 federal agency appointees identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer, he said on Tuesday in a proclamation marking the start of Pride Month celebrating the LGBTQ community.”

      His LGBTQ appts. include:

      –Sec. of Transportation
      –Asst. Sec. of Health
      –White House Social Secretary
      –White House Press Secretary
      –Assistant White House Press Secretary
      –White House Communication Director
      –White House Deputy Counsel
      –Deputy Director of Presidential Personnel Office

      *******************************************

      Plus, Biden has appointed a large number and high percentage of AAs.

      AAs:
      –comprise 13.4% of the U.S. population
      –comprise 12.5% of votes cast
      –made up 22% of Biden’s 2020 GE voters

      –make up 13.3% of Cabinet Secretaries
      –make up 24% of Biden’s full cabinet (6 of 25)
      –make up 18% of Biden’s agency appointments

      Key AA’s in Biden administration:

      –VP: Kameltoe Harris
      –U.S. Ambassador to U.N.: Linda Thomas-Greenfield
      –Defense Sec: Lloyd Austin
      –EPA Head: Michal Regan (also identifies LBGTQ)
      –Chief, Counsel of Economic Advisors: Cecilia Rouse
      –Director of U.S. Census Bureau
      –Deputy Dir. National Intelligence
      –Deputy Sec. of Agriculture
      –Deputy Sec. of Commerce
      –Deputy Sec. of HUD
      –Deputy Sec. of Veterans Affairs
      _______________________________________________

      Some of the LBGTQ appts. were also AA individuals, and many were also women.
      Many of the AA appts. were also women.

      The Woke Commie Dems have crossed the Rubicon. They are not going to self reflect after this a**kicking next Tuesday and will double down and continue to push their craziness. The only reflection will be how can we lie and deceive to influence low information voters. The DOJ is now floating in the media a special counsel for Trump…I still think they will indict him and others as well. All this talk of impeachment of Garland is that… all talk. It will never happen in the Senate. So I am confident he will be continue to be used to attack political opponents and make life as miserable for Trump as possible after the election and totally get away with it.

      The Marist polls, given their slant, have admitted Walker wins easily, Masters wins fairly easily and Oz wins by about two.

      Now we know why: Her husband profits off it as a therapist “treating” minors who want to transition.

      Horrific.
