Yes the Lou Barletta campaign has been bad (though not nearly so bad as the inept Scott Wagner for Governor campaign).

Good example. Lou Barletta is not well known....hell, not known at ALL outside of NE PA where he has been a Congressman for years.

His yard signs say simply “LOU” (like the Jeb! ones we saw in 2016). Here your candidate’s #1 problem is name recognition and you don’t even put his full name on the yard signs.

That’s just one small example. Bob Casey is an incumbent with a lot of inertia and you need something much more dynamic to dislodge him.

Scott and DeSantis seemed to be pulling even last week, and now they’re falling behind again.

Not ONE SINGLE VOTE has been counted yet. The vast majority WON'T BE CAST until tomorrow. Don't fall for these phony faux-tallies of who's ahead.

No, it doesn’t.

If it were measured in specific—or even all contested areas it would give an indication. When 400+ seats are not in contention it is more a reading of THOSE seats. Which, based on population are going to trend democrat.

I am not trying to be argumentative. Honest.

If you are basing your drive to vote based on this—that’s great. But don’t give up because of this.

You’re really good at finding irritating, lying, bullcrap, leftist propaganda. You obviously hunt for it. Now, onto the the nugget of this sh*t article:

The poll’s margin of error is +/-3.3 percentage points.

Translation: This fake survey polled +12 democrats, so please, please believe our lies. And when we’re proven wrong, try to forget this leftist BS so we can keep our humpty-dumpty jobs and do this crap again in 2020.

Like you, I wish this poll would show something different.

But I hasten to remind you that IBD/TIPP was one of the MOST ACCURATE poll in the 2016 elections. They predicted a Trump victory when all others were showing that he would lose.

See here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2016/12/05/which-was-the-most-accurate-national-poll-in-the-2016-presidential-election/?utm_term=.4a2eec1e6fd3

and here:

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/latest_polls/president/

So, I’m not trying to find anything, I simply subscribe to Investors Business Daily and this happens to be their poll findings. If you think it is BS, maybe you can tell us why.

“If you think it is BS, maybe you can tell us why.”

You don’t get to choose what I respond to. Your history exposes you.

You post the most negative, anti-Trump crap on FR and did so throughout the entire primary and the presidential election. You did so consistently and never challenged the premise of all the negative crap articles you posted.

I don’t have to prove it because anyone can call up your posting history and see it for themselves.

Posting history heh?

It’s obvious you only want to see what you want to see and ignore or fail to see the other posts I make.

Did you see this one post of mine for instance:

http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3703102/posts

I guess you did not. So please don’t pretend you know about my posting history. You obviously don’t.

It took you 98 posts before responding to this vile thread. That’s typical for you.

“I guess you did not. So please don’t pretend you know about my posting history. You obviously don’t.”

I don’t need to “pretend.” Your posting history is obvious to anyone who cares to look. You post endless attacks against Trump and rarely ever attack the premise of the articles you post.

Well, not obvious to you.

Look that these posts and tell me if they are attacks on Trump:

1) http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3703035/posts

2) http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3702254/posts

3) http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3700917/posts

4) http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3700897/posts

Now, be fair, read those posts, ask your self who started those threads and tell me whether or not they are attacks or supportive of Trump.
