Fox News Poll: Democrats maintain lead in race for House
http://www.foxnews.com ^ | August 23 2018 | By Dana Blanton

Posted on 08/23/2018 9:20:04 AM PDT by Para-Ord.45

Several findings point to the potential for a blue map in November:

– President Trump’s job rating remains underwater.

– Republicans alone say the economy is in positive shape.

– The GOP tax law is less popular (40 percent favorable) than Obamacare (51 percent favorable).

– The Republican Party is less popular (39 percent favorable) than the Democratic Party (50 percent favorable).

– Optimism about life for the next generation of Americans is down eight points from last year.

– There is greater enthusiasm to vote in the midterms among out-of-power Democrats.

Meanwhile, the Trump/Russia probe isn’t going away. Approval of Special Counsel Robert Mueller stands at 59 percent

The Trump base knows what’s at stake and they will be there in November.

Bring your relatives and neighbors to the polls. Red Wave rising. Let’s Roll. MAGA 2018 and 2020.

“White suburban women are fuming this year for some reason.”

The wife thinks he should stay off twitter, that it hurts his image, etc.

I explained/asked “how’s he supposed to get his message out to the nation when the media fights him at every turn?” Despite “understanding” this, she isn’t changing her mind. If that’s how it’s happening nation wide, then I won’t be surprised come November - but every woman should be reminded of their low-information effect on the country, because it’s going to hurt a lot if we lose.

Yeah, right.

I’m not buying the BS even from Fox. Everybody I know thinks things are pretty improved.

Pollsters arent paid to be right.

They dont have to be.

After 2016, they all should have gone out of business. They didn’t. Because, again, they dont have to be right.

The more pussy hats show up to vote, the more men and intelligent women should be reminded of what happens if these people win

Fox really needs to expand their polling beyond Shep Smith’s contact list.

This makes no sense at all.

Read the poll questions and results; +11 Democrat lean; did not ask who voted for whom in 2016; poll similar to 2016 polls; if one believes it, one could make a hefty profit taking all assets and shorting the stock market, unless (of course) it is wrong.

I'm still suffering from POSD - Post Obama Stress Disorder. I can never forget that Obama got elected TWICE by the American people.

So I won't breathe easy until after the Democrats get crushed in the mid-terms (please God!). But in the back of my mind, I can't escape the gut-wrenching fear that the Dems will might actually take over the House.

DEMONRATS look good now, but what about after an October Surprise of sealed indictments?

Huber can only REPORT to Sessions. That is the order written by Sessions himself.Read it.

The October surprise will probably be a partial interim report by Mueller.Basically, an Impeachment report.
Neo-marxist Dems do not need to win many seats to take control.
