Bill Maher says he’s no longer predicting that Democrats will be pummeled in the midterm elections, with abortion offering a “turning point” on momentum.
“Things have really turned around,” Maher told ITK in a recent interview.
“The Republicans are the dog that caught the car with abortion,” the HBO “Real Time” host said of the Supreme Court’s June ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned the federal right to the abortion established by Roe v. Wade.
“They’ve been trying to do this for 50 years, and then now you notice that the Republican candidates don’t even want to be asked about the subject. And sometimes when they do get asked about it, they kind of backtrack: ‘Abortion, I guess I heard something about a ruling recently,’” Maher said.

Ummm, no. Abortion is not an election-saving issue. Maher doesn’t want to be accused of piling on Democrats when they get their asses handed to them in 5 weeks.
Killing babies is a winning issue for the Dems? I don’t think the American people in general will agree.
ITS THE ECONOMY !
Well, since I take all my political cues from Bill Maher, I guess I can just give up now.
Its only a BIG issue in safe Dem seats/districts...
Republicans hold a 21-point lead in battleground House districts on a generic congressional ballot as the party seeks to regain control of the chamber in November’s midterms, a new poll found.
Among people living in congressional districts that are rated as at least somewhat competitive by ABC’s FiveThirtyEight, registered voters favor GOP candidates 55% to 34%, ABC News/Washington Post poll results showed.
That Republican lead is almost as big as a plus-24 advantage in solid GOP districts. Democrats lead by 35 points in solid blue districts.
Overall in House races, registered voters favored Republicans 47% to 46% – historically not enough to prevent typical first-midterm losses by the sitting president’s party.
One likely voter model has a 51%-46% Republican-Democratic split, said Langer Research Associates, which conducted the poll for ABC News.
The GOP also is favored with three of the four most important issues heading into the midterms.
The economy (84%), education and schools (77%), inflation (76%), and crime (69%) rated as the four most important issues to voters. Republicans were considered the party more trusted to deal with the issue with the economy (plus-16 over Democrats), inflation (plus-19), and crime (plus-14).
The GOP earned its biggest lead in handling crime in 30 years as the issue has surpassed abortion among concerns for Americans.
Democrats held a plus-6 rating in addressing education and schools.
It was little surprise that President Joe Biden’s party also was considered the party more trusted to address abortion (plus-20) and climate change (plus-23), though those issues were ranked Nos. 5 and 7 among the top seven by voters.
Immigration (61%) came in as the No. 6 most important issue. Democrats held a 1-point led as being trusted to handle it.
He always was. And if people would rather die and see America become a barren landscape like The Road Warrior depicted rather than give up the wholesale murder of innocent babies, we get exactly what we vote for.
We are just a few missed meals from complete and total societal collapse.
Abortion (either for or against) is fairly low priority for voters, plus now it’s a state issue so it really shouldn’t impact federal elections all that much.
The Republican candidates in NV are being pounded in TV ads for their “heartless” pro-life stance.
Is there any reason why I should care one whit about what Bill Maher thinks or says?
Keep telling yourself that jackass
Given the way the media has framed the abortion issue, it could trim a few seats off the Red Wave, but I think that’s as far as it goes.
Wait, what? Not with the word abortion plastered around. Good grief
That is the winning ticket for democrats, not rights but abortion.... ?
Yeah ok whatever
What is abortion?
Maher doesn't know what he's talking about in this case.
Wishful thinking on his part.
That’s a pretty loathsome plank to win on, but the Dems sure are running on it around here. In Illinois during the Democrat primary, there were two candidates for Secretary of State who tried to outdo each other on their “pro-choice” credentials, even though the SOS has nothing to do with abortion law or policy.
It’s too bad, but he’s right on this one. Dems from dog catcher to president are screeching about how we want to force women to have babies, even young girls who have been raped by their grandpas.
Yesterday Hitler.
Today Biden/Obama.
That, of course, was before O'Keefe exposed Planned Parenthood for making money parting out babies like they're old Corvettes. That was one of many times the Christians were right and Maher was wrong.
