Can the Dems Run Out the Clock?
American Thinker ^ | 25 Aug, 2024 | Allan J. Feifer

Posted on 08/25/2024 6:29:28 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The presidential race boils down to understanding the reality that the next 45 days, and not Election Day itself, will determine the election. By then, how many undecided voters will have already voted based on Joy and Hope vs. the reality of who Kamala Harris is?

The Democrats have come up with a frighteningly effective strategy of obscuration. GOP messaging has highlighted the stark reality between what the Dems want you to believe about Kamala and her three-and-a-half year record as V.P., plus a super-progressive background that the Democrats want you to forget. So far, they are getting their wish.

There’s an old sage that goes something like, “If you can’t win on the facts, get a different set of facts.” I’ll update that to “If you can’t win on the facts, ignore them.” So far, in the absence of any press scrutiny or unscripted speech by the candidate, and with an electorate that is fine with calling this election an anti-Trump movement, this strategy is working. Democrats are, essentially, running out the clock, with time working against them.

The Veep is a gaff machine. All the scripting in the world will not insulate her from her first opportunity to electrocute herself. We all know that Fox will report such gaffes, but the question is, will the specific media sites that reach persuadable voters do their job and report them? Recent history is not encouraging. Media Matters and reports that Trump is reported unfavorably 89% of the time, whereas Harris is reported favorably by almost the same percentage. For someone who takes his cues from soft news such as social media and other unabashedly slanted sound bite platforms, Republicans are clearly outmatched, and to believe otherwise is foolish.

The democRATs call the Kamunism campaign electric. Perhaps, but in a shockingly stupid way.

The question is whether the DeepStaters will be able to arrest all of the protesters if the vote for Trump/Vance is so overwhelming that the Demonicrats are forced to openly and blatantly commit gross election fraud in order to claim they won the election?

In 6 months the American people would be astonished to realize Harris is a raging communist who intends to force everyone into electric cars, arrest individuals for speaking out against “values” and INVITING Chinese spies to guide us into war.

“Why didn’t anyone tell us?”

Spit!

In today's America, to most American's, marketing is reality. And sadly, most Americans are quite comfortable with that...

As was the case in 2020 all that Rat Party Headquarters has to do is fraudulently "flip" a total of approximately 45,000 in several counties to steal it. I'd wager everything I own that the Rats have arranged,with Shapiro's help, to have at least 5,000 ballots mailed to an abandoned warehouse in Pittsburgh. And I'd wager they've done the same things in GA...AZ...MI...WI...and probably NC.

So that means *game over*.

Exactly right.

As I mentioned yesterday, there is about 6 weeks of effective campaigning to change/gel peoples’ minds before early voting kicks in and brings in at least 40% of the vote.

Run out the clock is a term which describes a strategy for the team which is ahead.

I doubt that Komrade Kammy is ahead.

So the question becomes can they keep it close enough to steal.

Fact is in 2020 Joey couldn’t on his own.

Hence, enter the FIFTY SPIES WHO LIED who allowed Hunter’s laptop and exposure of the “Big Guy” in the Biden Crime Family to be covered up.

This election, like 2020/22, depends entirely on mailin ballots and how the DNC has corrupted the process. Nothing else matters, or will.

I think they can run out their own clock, but now the competition odds got even better for the Right. JFK Jr. is not the only dem to break away. Time is short and running out, Cabala Whoreass has not held a news conference, Walz (Aka Elmer Fudd) is not very popular in his home state among the real Americans living there, and anyone who buys groceries can see the forest from the trees.

Has the GOP (or anybody) cleaned up, gotten rid of the DNC’s ETM (Election Theft Machine)?????

If so, Trump wins on the real votes of the citizens of USA.
If not, IneligibleHarris is installed in our White House in February.

it is that simple

Early voting is why they are not letting her give press interviews or debates, only scripted pablum written by her Puppet handlers.

The longer they delay that the more votes for joy will have been cast.

I thought that was, "If you can’t win on facts, then baffle them with bull$hit."

Can’t understand why there are no lawsuits tying the dims up for illegally swapping Kamala for Joe with regards to the delegates and the $. Even if it ultimately loses it forces them to spend time and effort fighting. It also keeps the public focused on the debacle instead of all the “joy”

That’s what they Dem are planning to do with the aid of the mainstream media.

Trump was leading 52 to 47 just 5 days ago going into the start of the DNC in the POLYMARKET betting site where people have a real stake on the election outcome with their money.

It’s TIED 50-50 as of this writing. Put in and include the cheating factor and it’s a precarious situation…. 😔 😞
