Going back to my post #31, I later asked my friend what he had said, in Croatian, to that shady black guy. My friend said that for some reason shoes had popped into his mind. So he was telling the guy, in Croatian, how you can buy shoes in different sizes and colors.

I sure do have some weird friends.

Most likely. Most people won’t even answer their phone unless they know who it is.

The only problem is this year we kinda need the wife to vote R as well.

Booming economy and Law and Order. I hear the ladies like that stuff. The Democrats offer neither.

I think you just discovered the elephant in the room, FRiend.

The poll I’d really like to see would have just one question, and be addressed to self-described conservatives only:

Q: How often do you answer political polls:
1.) Always
2.) Most of the time
3.) Some of the time
4.) Rarely
5.) Never

I bet 5.) would win by a landslide. Not only is the polling process corrupted by leftism, but even an honest poll is an imposition on my time and attention, with nothing offered in return.

Not even some fast-food coupons ...

You mean they got more honest at the very end.

For the vast majority of the campaign they were talking about a Carter blowout and how the extreme Reagan couldn’t win.

The “polls” always tighten at the end to give them credibility and to make sure their side doesn’t get to confident.

Complete manipulation.

The shy Trump supporter is a very real thing

Understatement

You are correct about that. If only Trump would stick to that narrative and stop with the petty tweets.

Suburban women like law and order and a good economy, but they also want to vote for someone they like. That's probably out the window with Trump, but he can stop the bleeding by acting like a decent guy for the next few months. Why he can't just let Biden implode is beyond me. Trump is literally giving them the election, IMHO.

Talk to the women and young people around you. Display some campaign messages, memes, whatever on cars, shirts, caps, etc. Show them a bandwagon approach.

Yesterday a hispanic woman told me she was voting for Trump. And this morning a cable company repairman told me he was voting for trump. I am Beverly Hills! This is good. They hate the left and what they are doing. They just want to live free and work and raise a family.

Hispanics (for the most part) are not pleased with the “Black Lives Matter” slogan.

I wonder why....

Someone called me up, so I said, ‘I’m voting for Trump. ‘ The guy said, ‘Sorry! ‘ Then hung up...

I’m not shy. I just refuse to talk to pollsters, or anyone else that cold calls me. If they leave a message and it interests me I might call back.

My observation is that leftards LOVE giving their ignorant opinions to anyone in earshot. Apparently mothers don’t teach kids to mind their own business anymore. What I think is my business.

The DNC and its lapdog media skew polls (lie). Trump supporters show up on election day.

I do not know as I only receive the call; I do not make them.

I will give you a hint as to what I suspect. I live in Austin, Texas and the pollsters know that from the area code and exchange code and the pollsters expect people with those first six digits to be rabid blue dog demoncraps who will vote for Dementia Joe and Stacy Abrams (or some other woman of color) under any and all circumstances even if Joe were to die from a cerebral and hemorrhage and Abrams were to die of CoVid-19 before the election.

“Food for thought! “

In this climate?

No thanks.

That’s exactly why.
