In reply to the discussion: Was the purpose of the sketchy NYT polling release to suppress Dem voter turnout this week? [View all]shrike3
(5,370 posts)96. Darlin', you said "Biden is too old" started a couple of months ago.
I was merely pointing out that it did not. That it's been a media narrative for almost two years. It's "dogged" Biden for years. Did it impact the way voters see him? Of course, it did.
Sorry the post wasn't up to your standards. Luckily, nobody cares, including me. Oops, you care, but -- so what?
As for the rest of your palaver -- same old talking points I've read on DU and elsewhere. And, as usual, no new ideas or solutions, just blah, blah, blah. Luckily, Biden has smart people on his team, and I'm sure they are already putting plans in place. Hey, why don't you offer to volunteer? An individual of your towering intellect would be welcome, I would imagine.

Ratfucking is an American slang term for political sabotage or dirty tricks, particularly pertaining to elections.

The "Biden should drop out, Biden is too old, Democrats are nervous," narrative started long before these polls.

They started when that one poll a couple months ago that had 70% Americans who said Biden was too old.

Yes. That was the last poll that had Biden up in PA - but it's not from last week.

No lol. It's very common for a slew of polls to be released a year out from an election.
