Rick Wilson: Cut The Bullshit (plus some words from Joe Trippi)




BTW, this is an excerpt from an e-mail I got from Joe Trippi, of the Lincoln Project. Worth reading.

Take heart.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

My best advice to you, right now, 12 days before Election Day? Inhale. Exhale. Take a few deep breaths. The panic over all these polls is not just premature. It's ridiculous.

When you see a poll go from Harris +3 to Trump +1 over the course of the past week, just throw it out.

Why?

Imagine you've seen no coverage of any polling whatsoever. Ask yourself - since the moment Kamala Harris entered the race - which direction has it been moving? Has anything truly changed it?

I can think of a few. The debate. The convention. The economy. The VP picks. "Candidate quality" down ballot.

Which candidate has an advantage on every single one of those things?

Kamala Harris. (Oh, and which candidate seems exhausted and is losing it in front of our very eyes? It ain't Kamala...)

This is not "hopium." This is 40 years of experience staring us in the face. It's what Stuart, Rick, and everyone on the team at the Lincoln Project are seeing. Yes we have to campaign like we are behind - we have to give it our all. But do not be fooled by all these junk polls.

BTW. Look at the less biased polls. WaPo has Harris winning WI/MI/PA and Georgia. TIPP has her up 3 nationally. And almost all of these have Trump stuck around 46%.

Now look at what campaigns are doing. Trump is canceling events. Harris is barnstorming. And last but not least, look at what we are doing. We are laser focused on Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. As you're reading this, we've been able to push over $3.5 million towards reaching swing voters in those three states in the last few weeks. And more help is coming.

We can and will beat Trump. We have to run through the tape.
