It's the easy way out, but doesn't do any good in the long run. We have to figure out what we did wrong, and correct it so we can win in the future.

When the national polling at the end showed an even race with Trump even marginally ahead in some, his chances were good andym Nov 2024 #87

The national polling never really showed an even race. Harris always led the national poll average by at least 1 to 2% Wiz Imp Nov 2024 #100

Not true, The final average RCP was Harris 48.7 and Trump 48.6 (0.1% lead)-- Trump led for a few days in late Oct andym Nov 2024 #136

RCP is a biased right wing site. Nobody who supports Democrats should ever pay any attention to it. Wiz Imp Nov 2024 #137
