A recent column by Fox News contributor Jen Kerns, however, may have revealed the source of Messina's frustration.

According to Kerns, new polling shows that Democrats have lost a recent 15-point lead over Republicans, dropping to only a 2-point lead heading toward the 2018 midterms.

I think all public pollsters should be shot.

Translation: It's looking pretty bad for us.

Yet, Wolf Blitzer opines that Trump’s rhetoric will get journalists killed.

And considering how the polls usually favor the dems, that's pretty bad.

Obama's onetime campaign manager, Jim Messina said important yardsticks to determine a candidate's viability. ...."are passion and intensity,” he said. “When I ran Obama’s campaign, the number I looked at every
day was intensity. Are my voters more motivated than Republican voters?”

That's so true.

Then-Ill State Sen Obama at a meeting of the Congressional Black Caucus.

The "passion and intensity" for Obama was such that the Congressional Black Caucus
suppressed this image of Obama with Farrakhan to dupe Americans into voting for Obama.

The only time a poll can be verified is if the election happens shortly thereafter. The rest of the time it is nothing more than a marketing tool.

And even then...our Governor of Kentucky was down by five points on election day and won by nine points.

I think the problem that Jim has is his former client created a toxic environment. Many people will not answer the phone or lie when giving answers to political polling questions. The reports I’ve read on the subject suggest these polls over sample democrats, etc..

A pollster is usually hired to perform the work. Unstated in the contract is “give me good news if you want to be hired again.” Democrats don’t want to hear the truth.

Come election day evening, November, 2018...the real results will be, Republicans pickup 5-12 Senate seats and Republicans will pickup 12-20 House seats. Many liberal progressive Democrat Senators will lose their re-election bids, Tim Kaine, Bill Nelson, Clare McCaskill, Joe Manchin, Sherrod Brown, plus all the Democrats in the ten states that Trump won easily in 2016,

Democrat Party is destroying itself with each passing day...and American voters know it and want it to happen. Blue collar workers by the millions will lead the way for the massive Republican victory. It’s the economy, stupid.
All the other Democrat hogwash jive, counts for zilch!!! Case closed.

There is no doubt Dems have a motivation edge, GOP need to get the MAGA voters motivated... on that vein however I think the Dem actions onthe shutdown and pelosis 8 hour speech on how illegals are more important than citizens and othe stupidity by dem supporters... going ape poop over a parade etc are going to motivate the MAGA voters as well.

But the GOP can’t be complacent. They need to fire up the troops and remind them exactly who these people are daily

When the left can’t control, they want to kill.

He said in the interview that “our voters are more intense,” the report said.

Very true!

...but does that translate to votes or thorazine?

I guess threatening to shoot people is cool and not a threat or anything IF you’re a Democrat.
