It would be quite the dose of poetic justice to wipe the smug grin that one imagines Giroux to be wearing right off his face this November.

Hillary is unstoppable in 2016. That guy Trump won’t even get the nomination. Or so we were told.

Oh, yeah . . . polls.

Want to see something funny? Go to YouTube and rewatch the 8 o’clock hour of election night on ABC. There’s one great point where they go to Nate Silver who’s modifying one of his predictions . . . and he bumps Hillary UP from something like 72 to 78% chance of winning.

These polls tell these fools what they want to hear, or what they want US to hear. They mean nothing.

I have a feeling that so much crap will be found out about the Dems, their base will split to Democratic Socialist if they lose 2018.

Dems may well make gains in the House , but maybe not enough to take control.

The Dems have a very tough Senate map in 2018. They have about 10 Dem senators facing tough re-election campaigns. No way Dems win every single one, plus upset a couple of Republicans up for re-election, to take control of the Senate

It’s the economy, stupid.
It’s the tax breaks, stupid.

My prediction:

The Dims will lose seats in both the House and Senate.

Well, if we have more “Democratic Socialists” coming out openly, it’s up to us to remind the public that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union started as the Social Democratic Labor Party of Russia.

All signs point to the Leftist’s rededication to pumping out as much FAKE NEWS as possible this year. Yearnings should be up around 37%.

Yes. I see the Dems possibly splitting into two parties:

1) Black Supremacist Party — capable of getting 10-15% of the vote nationally.
2) Democratic Socialist Party — capable of capturing the college crowd, but no one else.

The USA is likely to move sharply to the Right as there will be no Leftwing political victories for a long, long time.

So many wonderful wheels beginning to turn. The lower court judges, the chance for so many new, and sane, Supremes, the new tax law, the economy, immigration is moving, maybe some justice for the decades of corruption at high levels of government.... No wonder Trump is covering his drinking glasses when other people are around....

Bloomberg at one times was a highly respected outfit in the financial world.

Now, a total joke.

Good luck with that, with months and months of democrat abuse of power under Obama about to start being dumped daily.....just wait until indictments start being handed out. Democrats are about to scramble for cover. Wonder how many will change parties to survive?

We are going to end up with the Republican Party and the Rino Party in the end.

The door was left open wide more than 200 years ago—as dim—witted as TEW/etc. may be, even they could prevail eventually.

They are going to run on being against tax cuts, corporate bonuses, increase 401Ks, low unemployment, the Wall and MAGA. The are going to run on being for raising taxes on working people to give benefits to illegal aliens.

This is the stupidest piece so far but there will be many more as November gets closer.

Polls are worthless. Like the one that had the Republican Alabama Senate Contender winning by six points the day of the election

When you poll 1,000 people and only 333 of them are Republicans and the other 667 of them are other than Republicans, you have to question the validity of the poll results. I had a lib trying to tell me that Trump only had 30% support nationwide recently because polls. I told him that if he was dumb enough to believe that Donald Trump only had 30% support, he was dumber than I thought.
