Fortunately, it won’t be long until we find out if the polls are underestimating a lot of Trump’s support or if it’s 2012 redux. I worry that it’s going to be somewhat but not enough.
I’m trying to remain positive, but in light of how this country has gone the last 8 years and Obama with a net positive approval (!!!), I’m not so sure how people can be so optimistic. The country has gotten really dumb really quickly.
What I don’t understand is how people can think another candidate would have been a shoe-in for beating her. They turned an extremely decent man into an accessory to murder, capitalist predator, and dog abuser in 2012. You think they’d be any less vicious in protecting the White House 4 years later? If they can drive Romney’s negatives high enough to win, they can do that to anyone.
Like I said after the debates, and no one seems to agree... Pence won the debate, hands down.... but it's a VP debate... no one votes for VP. His mission was to defend Trump against scurrilous charges and blast the lying crook... that's the measure of success, not who won a debate on points... by that measure, Pence lost, big time
As I predicted going into the debate, Pence prefers to stay above the fray... that's NOT what a good VP does.. he defends the Pres and attacks Hillary... he got interrupted 72 times by Kaine and many times by the Mod.. and he didn't say shit! Even on Rush, he praised the moderator, right after Rush trashed her!
The old adage fits - NICE GUYS FINISH LAST... if he had picked Allen West, West would be in offensive from the word GO
