“self-delusion is the sure and certain path to defeat.”

The trick is to know which side is self deluded. In most cases it’s only possible to know in retrospect. If polls were scientific they all would come up with the same number. When in doubt, attack.

When in doubt, attack.

Please take note of my tagline.

But it is not wise to resort mindlessly to the attack when the motive is simply to avoid unpleasant reality. Nor should it be necessary to shield conscientious conservatives on this forum from the truth. There is more then transcendental truth in the promise, "the truth shall set you free" it also carries practical wisdom to permit us to avoid folly when within our human capacity to do so.

To attack Megan Kelly personally as the messenger diverted us from dealing with the underlying issue and we who support Trump in this election have paid a terrible price as a result.
