Electoral College Rating Changes: Ohio and Iowa Move to Toss Up

In mid-June, we moved both Iowa and Ohio from Likely Republican to Lean Republican. At the time, we noted that while the polls were looking shaky for Pres. Trump, they were also catching him at what could be his lowest point of the cycle. "We'll know soon enough if this trough is temporary," I...

Even if John Edwards had somehow walked with the nomination in '08, he would've been uncovered as a huger sleazeball than Slick Willie. Although I doubt he would've earned Crooked Hillary or Barack HUSSAIN OBAMA

Edwards would've got the evangelical vote.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

I feel like Edwards would've been an even more disastrous millennial version of Jimmy Carter. Best case scenario is he gets routed in his reelection campaign by idk let's say Paul Ryan and the Republican would've gained a supermajority in 2012,

I don't love neoliberal perception of Obama as the Democrats savior but future in alternate timeline without him looks pretty grim!

 

[snuffbox]

I don't know about the alternate timeline, but in the real one Carter wasn't actually disastrous.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

I'm really talking about perceived disaster more than actual disaster.

First the Cook Report changes Iowa and Ohio (!) to toss ups. Now the Atlantic is disrespecting the god emperor again:

Trump Secretly Mocks His Christian Supporters

Former aides say that in private, the president has spoken with cynicism and contempt about believers.

Hillary played under the same rules as Trump did. Like Don said, if the game was win CA and NY, he'd have focused on the 2 mass populations and win.

Lord knows I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch but Trump is doing even worse in the polls than he was at this time in 2016.

 

[909]

Yeah the guy who thinks the black president is a foreigner and thinks Mexicans are rapist would get the nomination of a party that hates rich people. Yeah sure thing man

There was just an Alaska poll where Trump was...1% ahead! Obviously with its 3 electoral votes the state isn't going to be polled a lot, but if Alaska is that close to flipping, that's a sign of a potentially huge blowout victory.

 

[snuffbox]

At this point, a blowout win for Biden seems more likely than Trump's only chance of winning (losing by the will of the people yet again but squeaking by with enough electoral votes). The media is going to have to work even harder to keep this close and give their reality tv boy a chance again.

Big debate tonight! Last time around, did Trump have those coke sniffles at 1 debate or was it all 3?

The race for the White House in Georgia is too close to call with 50 percent of likely voters supporting former Vice President Joe Biden and 47 percent supporting President Trump, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN- uh-pea-ack) University poll of likely voters released today.

What prompted this post was I saw a poll that Biden was up 7 points among seniors. Who knew basically letting seniors die en masse would backfire for The God Emperor?

god the cnn undecided voters. the dumbest people on the planet

Open discussion.

Great idea.

 

[Broward83]

This has been a giant clusterfuck. Donald is just lashing out at everyone and making his fucking despicable meme faces that will rally his base. Stupid Fox News dipshit just keeps letting Trump stomp all over the stage..

HOLY SHIT.. Trump just said he brought back Football and he's the one behind Big Ten football being back. What a fucking loon

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

i disagree about wallace's performance. he's really done what he can to try and reign in trump and has at several points called him out and out right said hes acting terribly and worse than biden.

Biden himself has outperformed expectations (which admittedly were low). He's treated trump like a child while also getting his points across.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

wallace just openly mocked trump

 

[909]

The Proud Boys comment was one of the worst things I have ever heard an elected official say.

 

[treble]

Not denouncing white supremacists and then telling his supporters to go to the polls and to watch and make sure things go correctly, people are going to get killed trying to vote.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

not only did he not denounce them he told them to stand back and stand by! jesus fucking christ

 

[treble]

I mean, being asked "do you denounce white supremacists" has got to be the easiest question in the history of debates and he couldn't even do it. And Biden didn't even press him on it or mention it again.

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

being asked about white supremecy:

 

[geniusMoment]

If Trump is re-elected I think I'm going to try and move to New Zealand. Not sure if that's far enough, but it's probably as far as I can get on this planet.
