From a fellow long distance runner . Excellent analogy and insight
I keep thinking maybe I should go open the cages. But the little ones running around, I could just take those in my car I guess. We had one that kept coming up here and I kept trying to make it today. I was giving it to cat treats! But she didn’t stick around.
I haven’t heard that about San Francisco kids. I know California had to put in the high school exit exam because kids were graduating without being able to read or write very well. So what is it about San Francisco?
Apparently everybody is dumb in San Francisco. After all look at who they elect.
You are spreading an ignorant and unfair stereotype. It may be a funny comedic tool, but it is not really accurate. The incidence of “inbreeding” in the Appalachian area defined as people marrying their first cousins at least in this time period is no greater than in other parts of the country. This stereotype did not originate in the South from actual observation... it started in places like New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Delaware and Connecticut where people have a strong need to feel superior while they fleece the rest of the country. They especially don't like places where people still have a modicum of self sufficiency. Kids and people with low IQ’s are spread fairly uniformly all around the country.
As a former military family I have lived all over the country (including Appalachia) and I can tell you there are ignorant, animal abusing, low IQ people in every single state. It is a silly stereotype and those kind of people aren’t exclusive to Appalachia.
Fatass Stirewalt on Fox right now saying “his numbers” show Wisconsin, NC, GA, and probably Florida going to democrats,
John Anderson was in the 1980 election also.
But, as I recall, even if every single person who voted for John Anderson had voted for Jimmy Carter instead, Ronald Reagan would still have won, both the popular vote and Electoral College.
Right, the 1992 case was the only one extreme enough to provably make a difference.
In 1996, Perot got close to 10%, but even at that level it becomes difficult to argue that it changed the outcome. Dole would have gotten a lot closer, but I think Clinton would still have squeaked out a victory.
With 1992 there was no doubt: Bush would have kicked Clinton’s ass to the curb without Ross Perot in the race.
Its a coordinated media strategy with fake polls to try and dissuade some Trump voters not to vote. Trump as already won https://joeisdone.github.io/florida/ once you extrapolate demographic data all swings states go to Trump from this, media trying to keep it close. Bookmark it; Biden won’t get more than 47% MAX(ceiling) Trump 48-53%.
That’s ridiculous. They are so insulting of our intelligence. I turned those emergency notifications off. I don’t care of there’s a nuclear warhead incoming, I don’t need their stupid warnings. I’m prepred.
That is probably correct... in the ballpark. Against Hillary, Rasmussen had Trump -2% of the national vote and, of course, Trump picked off the electoral votes. If Trump is up 2% nationally on Nov 3rd then Trump will be 4 - 5% better than 2016 and he gets both electoral and national vote with maybe 340 or better electorally.
I’m wondering if the Libertarian vote will collapse this election, the last few have they not had 4-5 per cent? What libertarian in his/her right mind would want to take a chance on Biden over Trump? Trump is pretty close to being a declared Libertarian himself, just has a few big government preferences but certainly no big threat to individual liberty. With a transfer of half of that previous Libertarian vote to Trump, it could make a difference. Hope so.

Trump losing but “doing much better than most are thinking he will” would be no consolation whatsoever. If we lose this election, then America as you and I know and love it will be no more and soon gone forever.
You can bet Trump is in this thing to settle for no other option but WINNING!! Any other outcome would not only be unacceptable, but unthinkable!
