If you are tempted to believe media predictions of doom and gloom for Republicans read this
vanity | September 18, 2019 | By Kevin Collins

Oh well another day, another pile of wishful thinking crap from a NeverTrumper, CNN or some polling “expert.”

All of them are lying and trying to get you to decide there is no sense in voting.

If you’ve already been convinced and are not voting skip the rest of this piece.

For the others, those who want to think and not hyperventilate, please just don't accept this premise.

In absolutely startling numbers Americans have told two polling companies the same thing about America’s satisfaction with the state of our economy.

Two surveys that spoke to thousands of people found exactly the same 85% level of satisfaction with the economy; the biggest issue on voters’ minds.

In November the choice will be between the great economy now recognized and identified by both Harris Poll and Gallup at an astounding 85% among those they spoke to; and the hate that Democrats are selling.

When you read these bogus predictions ask yourself if you believe Democrats driven by hatred for us, President Donald Trump and America will out vote us.

Not even some “experts” believe they will.

These “experts” usually talk in general terms because if they were ever pressed they could not name the districts Democrats are winning.

Where is my proof of this?

Right here.

In a September 11 tweet Nate Cohn, the New York Times poll watcher, said “We've at least partly polled 10 districts so far. GOP 46, Dems 45 7 toss-ups. 3 lean Republican, per Cook Political Report N=4713”

What this means is when the left leaning Charlie Cook polled ten districts he was CERTAIN would show Democrats leading (otherwise why bother with them) he came up EMPTY in every one of them.

If there are seven “toss ups” and three lean Republican ALL of these were supposed to be in the bag for Democrats and Cook and Cohn were ready to do ‘the happy dance.”

But that’s not the case.

Clearly if Cook and Cohn found even a one point Democrat lead in any of these “toss ups” that race would have been marked as “leaning Democrat,” but that didn’t happen, did it?

And oh, BTW: How far back are the Democrats in these “toss ups” if the NYT can't even call them "leaning Democrat?"

What they did find was that in all of the races they looked at Democrats are behind.

They didn’t make a single race a “toss up” where a Republican was behind because they wanted to be “fair.”

They did so because they HAD to.

We are winning. Don't accept the premise that we are not.


TOPICS: Politics; Society
KEYWORDS: polls
An analysis of available data shows Democrats are now near taking the House and certainly very far from taking the Senate.

The attack on Judge Kavanaugh has infuriated conservatives and coupled with Maxine Waters' continued talk of impeachment will be a death blow to Democrats.

I always like the positive posts! Info like the total r turnout in Texas v the total d turnout helps knock sense into me.

I have a strong feeling that Trump is going to crush the Dems.

He has a strong love for revenge and the DNC tried not only to illegally impeach but imprison Trump and his whole family.

Voting is really a waste of time in deep blue Maryland. My congressrat just regurgitates the talking points and refuses to think independently.

The Republicans aren’t able to get it together and put up a serious candidate.

We do have a republican governor. He’s been great for the state but pretty insulting to gun owners. I’ll hold at least one nostril closed when I vote for him.

Golly. I sure hope that there is no sudden release of information showing a history of treason and corruption and lying from the Democrats! If something like that came out in the next week or so it might depress some Dem voters and energize some GOP voters!

My opinion: Democrats will be crushed badly.

I believe the low poll numbers for Republicans are not supposed to discourage people from voting.

The (fake) low poll numbers are instead intended to discourage people from donating money to Republican candidates.

Who wants to donate to a sure loser? No-one. We'll still vote for the candidate but, if (s)he's going to lose anyway, why donate to the candidate's campaign?

In a worst case scenario-no matter how negative their crap becomes for Trump... just out of anger and revenge, Pence could take his place or run on his OWN and he would win!!

Think about that

"All of them are lying and trying to get you to decide there is no sense in voting.

I'm not Republican doom and gloom but your first two sentences highlight a problem.

Cockiness leads to complacency. That's one reason Hillary lost.

Telling Republicans there's going to be a 'Red Wave' makes some believe they don't have to vote.

Will it be a lot? No. Will it be enough in close elections? Maybe.

Look at the special elections. Has there been a 'Red Wave'? No. They've been mixed results.

I don't count the Democrats out. Never. They will fight like rabid dogs to win. They never stop scheming behind the scene. You may not see it but it's happening. Have you ever heard of an 'October Surprise?'

They're writing their own narratives and pass them around to their 'true believers'. They're working to undermine Republicans and they're working to win.

As I said, I'm not doom and gloom.

However, I don't count my chickens before they hatch.

Telling Republicans it's going to be a landslide and the Democratic Media Complex telling us there's going to be a 'Blue Wave' has the same affect; voter suppression.

Don't take anything for granted. Don't get cocky. It ain't over 'til it's over.

what I have\had been seeing prior to this is repub primary turnout seemed to be way better than the RATs. Does this have any relationship to the general election ? If the trend holds, the RATs are SOL.

Denying a lead is a stupid way to lose a chance to expand a lead. If you are superstitious about saying we are leading you don’t deserve to be heard.

To prove your point just look at two recent political rallies and their attendance numbers.

President Trump: 10,000

Usurper Obozo: 750.

When I went around predicting a Trump win in 2016 everyone but a few laughed at me. Now they are pissed at me for being right. How did I know? Simple. Look at the energy and attendance of the rallies. It tells you everything you will ever want to know about what direction the wind is blowing.

Forget the bogus polls and cold marketing calls so many lie to.

I agree with you Boomer, the rallies are the TRUTH about exactly which way the wind is blowing thousands upon thousands stand in line for hours in ALL types of weather conditions for Trump rallies!!! NOW even though he has won they still come AND many are left outside the venues!!!! Americans LOVE this POTUS, the reason they do this is because HE IS the American Dream made his wealth on is own with VERY HARD WORK, fell to the bottom AND picked himself up and did it again!!! He speaks to the people in their own language he is NOT a snob or ELITE in any way he SAYS what we have ALL been thinking for decades and have been shamed into keeping quiet!!! WHAT EVER this POTUS asks the American people to do for his benefit this Nov. they WILL COME in droves to MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!! MAGA!!!!!
