I like it. Thank you.
What we are seeing is not all “Romney bounce” - much of it is Obama unmasked. A lot of it is the polls using the debate as an excuse to report the truth all along, that Obama is in heep big doo doo.
Well, it could happen that way, but we’d be fools to count on it.
A great read to start the day. I'm hoping you are right.
All I would add is that the dems are trying to build an electorate in which demoographics and dependency add up to an automatic democrat majority. Welfarism and identity politics glued together by resentment and class warfare is a toxic mix. And it's just about all the dems offer today.
Run on much?
creating a Giant TSUNAMI.......
that will wash Obama and his minions into the dustbin of history.
Tomorrow I will send Romney/Ryan $20 that I absolutely cannot afford to part with. This is 1940 and we’re nearly out of Spitfires and Hurricanes whilst $188 million dollars a month worth of Messerschmitts, Heinkels, Focke-Wulfs and Dorniers are rolling off the assembly lines around-the-clock.
Excellent analysis, probably correct.
I’d like to proffer an alternative possibility, only a possibility, one I could never prove.
This race has been over since 2010.
The polling has been cooked to make it seem otherwise.
If you use 2008 election turnout models as a baseline, then look at the 2010 mid-terms, there’s an acute upward arc favoring Republicans. If it’s concluded that Obama’s policies brought us our decisive 2010 win, then why wouldn’t the upward trajectory have continued? Did Obama change any of his policies? No, he gave us more to dislike.
What we think we’ve been seeing was merely a media cooked-up concoction, a mirage, a myth that served a purpose for our adversaries. The specially-sauced polling and the belief that the media still had the power to persuade was all it took to distort reality and make us feel like this loser ever had a chance.
Neither, Bounce or Debacle, it was planned..
The next two Romney will be gang raped..
Because the next two will be closer to the election..
And Americans have been dumbed down so much, they will not remember the first one..
Americans remembering anything for longer than a week is rare.. very rare..
Brilliant actually...
I always enjoy your posts.
Interesting to see the trolls skulking about. Hmmmm.
Obama, in that debate, was downright disturbing on many levels. I think this and I know what a loser the guy is. I can’t imagine what some wishy-washy “independent” was left feeling. It is going to be hard to wash that impression away. (though I never doubt the recklessness of the “moderate independent”)
Awesome!
Let it be so.
Another thing to consider is just why so many people watched the debate. The numbers were very high—over 70 million viewers. To me this speaks to people who haven’t made up their minds. They’re willing to see what Romney can do. So your analogy is spot on; Team Obama is resting on a very shaky foundation!
I also keep wondering why the media and Obama team keep fighting the outcome of the debate. They lost! The perception is set, and cannot be changed with words. People saw and heard what they saw and heard. It seems to me that all the excuses have reached the “cost of diminishing returns” and they should just shut up and move on to the next debate. But they seem to think they can’t possibly be wrong, or that Obama can’t be wrong.
They are truly caught in their own web of propaganda.
They actually believe themselves!
