Maureen Dowd: Just as women boosted Biden into the White House, now women have to rescue us again
The Irish Times ^ | 31 August 2022 | Maureen Dowd

It’s nice to see the Democrats are back on track. It only took an upheaval turning women into second-class citizens, the possibility that the Orange Menace could be re-elected, and an out-of-control Supreme Court.

With all that, the Dems seem to be pulling even.

There’s still a better-than-even chance they could lose the House. If they’re lucky, they’ll hold on to the Senate; and for that they would have to thank the Republicans for putting forward horrible candidates.

President Joe Biden’s ratings have gone up, from very bad to not good, with the base cheering on “Dark Brandon” - the meme that presents an evil version of the president. But the really positive news is that most Democratic Senate candidates are more popular than he is.

The Democrats have managed to come alive in the last few weeks, actually passing stuff in Congress. After watching the country drown and burn, Joe Manchin freaked out that he would be single-handedly blamed for climate change and made a deal with Chuck Schumer. But the Democrats are still barely keeping their heads above water. They just can’t match the Republican crazy. Unfortunately, a considerable chunk of this country is acting insane, believing that Democrats are all paedophiles who are drinking babies’ blood.

Democrats have to stop fighting a conventional war. It’s just not a conventional time.

“Boosted” as in stealing, like shoplifted?

Its the usual Democrat push polls. There is no real “bump”. What there is is the standard inaccuracy in Democrat leaning polls so that they can push this laughable narrative.

The Donkeys are going to get crushed in November.

The recession affects white housewives least of anyone. They will continue to vote for the Communist Party.
