Why in the hell do Freepers think that an optimistic attitude means that people aren't fighting as hard as they can for a win?

Maybe some people like to coast to a win when they think they are ahead, but most people fight all the harder when they can sense victory.

Most people, in fact, give up when they think victory is unattainable, which is the entire tenor of your post. You are discouraging people and that will create a sense of foreboding and cause more people to stop pushing than any number of optimistic threads.

Exactly. People only want to support someone who has a chance of winning.

I appreciate your response. This might be different in that Jewish voters are fed up with Obama. Just look at recent stories about Israel. I think they may tip the scale for Turner because of the Obama backlash.
