“Anyone feeling depressed?”
From the article: “....it’s not his oratorical skills and mastery of the issues, it’s the image he has created based upon his record of a competent, cool, skilled, experienced, capable leader.”
Not at all. When they have to resort to the quoted sort of BS to try to pull a “Tokyo Rose”, or more recently a “Baghdad Bob” on Conservatives, on Republicans then you know they are scared.
I say that knowing they are scared of one person primarily. That is the same person they have been attacking over, and over again since 2008. They wouldn’t be attacking her so viciously, so verociously if they weren’t worried, scared she might be nominated to run against Obama.
“Think back to 1980, as bad as things were for Carter - and I would argue that the economic pain in the fall of 1980 was probably much worse than the pain is today, not to mention the hostage saga - Carter still led Reagan by 3 to 5-points less than a week before election day.”
Even then, polls were clearly push-polls. The MSM and pollsters find and publish the results they want the public to see. Couldn’t believe them then - can’t believe them now.
