“But if they do vote, Mr. Trump would stand to gain — something unimaginable for a Republican as recently as a few years ago.”
Gee. I wonder why?
George H. W. Bush
Bob Dole
George W. Bush
John McCain
Mitt Romney
How did we end up with such crap candidates?
This is the source of Likely Voter polls being different.
The definition of Likely Voter varies and excludes people who skip elections.
Note carefully that VBM and early voting captures these votes, which will be Independents and thus difficult to exclude in the count since a given precinct will no longer be predictable.
Mittens is a disingenuous creep. He can retire to his magic planet, Kobalt
Dole as a person is better than the rest combined. With due credit to HW for his service in WW. II
Something so many republicans do not want to understand. For a republican to win they must either overperform compared to generic Republican or be facing a Democrat who underperforms the geric Democrat.
GHW BUSH, Generic Republican coming after a highly successful Republican presidency.
Bob Dole, Generic Republican
GW Bush, Generic Republican, by this time the Generic Democrat was a little less shiny and Dems shot themselves in the foot, with incompetence in vote design in FL
John McCain, severely unperformed Generic Republican
Mitt Romney, Generic Republican.
Remember the Education and Entertainment establishment has been labeling Republicans as Racist, Warmongering and greedy for over 60 years.
