They have NOTHING to land on. Keep digging up HRC and Hunter. They have NOTHING.

They are basically going for turnout. Get every single one of their followers to vote and maybe a few leak over from the middle. Basically this is driving what’s on Fox News into their voters skulls. I’d normally say come up with some new thing but 100% turnout in a midterm could go a long way.

Still they’ve made their joke about Hunter Biden into a joke about them. I can’t see that pulling in any suburban women and that’s always the key especially in a midterm.

Actually, the GOP IS running on invasion of the brown-skinned hoards and Hunter's laptop, and of course Hillary's emails, radical socialist Democrats, and defunding. It's what they "have." Inflation's coming down, jobs plentiful, incomes rising, fear dropping.

it should be published even though it is fake? Well I guess that will open things up to a lot of interesting posts.

About magats and actual republicans and polling. Every time a poll comes out indicating how far right the Rs, in general, are there is something that gets missed and not factored into the mix. Many actual Rs have left the party which leaves a more dense concentration of magats such that there is nothing left but magats. The rest have bailed and now claim D or I so that could skew the polls to some degree I would think.

That one thing that makes me have a skeptical view of polling at present.

With regard to the same old shit talk, different election... one trick ponies.
