Absolutely, Obama loses in an honest election - but does anybody really think they are not already cooking the economic numbers to show them going up? If it gets close to election & their fake numbers aren’t fooling enough people - I’ve thought for some time that there will be an “event” that will change all the parameters.
I don’t put anything past these people, they’ve worked for a long time to bring this to fruition.
What we have now that we didn't then is a weakened MSM and the alternative media. Everybody got their news in 1980 from the big three networks and newspapers. Nobody but techies were on the Internet, if it was even called that back then. There was no Fox News. Heck, Rush was still working for the K.C. Royals.
Today, lots of people don't read a newspaper and get news from alternative sources. The MSM are in a much weaker position to throw elections over to the Dems. And as to the economy, what Barry's people and the media are basically telling America is, who you gonna believe, me or your lyin' eyes? Not a strong pitch.
