I think there’s a silent majority. I think there’s a silent group of women who will crawl over broken glass to vote against Trump and who will quietly vote for Harris.

That is wishful thinking. That group described is the least silent of all. Just turn on your television for the news. That group is screaming at the top of their lungs.

Oddly in the past it was the Trump voter that remained somewhat silent as they wished not criticism. A Harris voter will not be criticized in the media nor by associates. Oddly I think the Trump voter is not silent in this election. He or she will voice their preference but not necessarily to pollsters. I have had 2 or 3 push pollsters this election cycle and oddly one real pollster. I am speaking of polls via landlines or cell phone. I ignore all the political texts from all. The Trump voter is not necessarily quiet this election cycle but I doubt he is being measured properly by the pollsters. When I get a call from a pollster and determine it is a push poll I simply say "this is not legitimate polling" and hang up.

The media is a jungle today of numerous means of communication be it NBC, CBS, ABC, NPR, Twitter now X, Facebook, Tik Tok, and many sites such as our Free Republic and literally thousands of blogs. I much prefer our jungle of today. In the past when 3 networks controlled all information we were ignorant of facts. We the people were not in control, they were.

Jim Rob's Free Republic became the model of the new conservative internet media. Oddly the total hits on Free Republic are down as compared to the past. This is because this model was copied by many other conservative sites and thus the audience is split between many.

But, Free Republic has no commercial sponsors nor advertisers. It is all by our donations. That is what gives us total independence.

“Jim Rob’s Free Republic became the model of the new conservative internet media.”

Small correction, it really started with Jim Rob’s “White Water Papers” during the Clinton Administration. Yes I have been hanging around here for a long time.
