Have you not learned? Polls LIE!

FAKE polls are FAKE NEWS.

AND how can you tell the one or two blind squirrels from all the rest?

You CAN’T! So, don’t believe ANY OF THEM!

Just ask Hillary.

Another 13 percent say they want control in the lower chamber to be split between the two parties

This number is also the same amount that complain about "gridlock" when they get their wish.

Do not depend either on the “correctness” of the poll, or that its implictaions will hold.

Assume that Democrat WILL “get out the vote”, and gear up to get out an even BIGGER vote for our side.

Trust no prognosticators. It is their purpose in life to lie and deceive, and so far, their predictions, though they often have had an inverse effect on the actual result, sometimes do follow the predicted outcome.

If the Democrats do regain control of the House, expect them to attempt to reverse virtually everything Trump has managed to do in the past 20 months or so, and to stymie any further progress altogether. Their motion to impeach will fail, but it shall so tie up the House that nothing else will be considered.

Democrats usually do lead in generic polls, but Democrats have a lot more difficulty carrying out their intentions.

In a nutshell, that's why they are Democrats, and not Republicans.

(Poll methodology seems okay since it's not nubile coeds live-calling in the evening for minimum wage.)

This is a left wing poll. But even straight up this is terrible for the dems. Here comes the Red Wave. Part of the MAGA Storm surge.

The GOP will keep the House.

All the Democrat wailing and teeth-knashing is kabuki theater.

They are goi g to get crazier and more unhinged as they realize they will not take co trol. Expect more violence and false flags out of desperation. Election night will be almost as good as 2016.

God is in control . Everybody keep prayingas this is a battle against evil.

For the life of me, I can’t imagine what the Democrats are selling that anyone would like to buy?
