Sorry, I didn’t mean you of course. I just love these pollsters and prognosticators that think they know what is going to happen.

Agreed. I polling disgusts me, since it’s so obviously manipulated.
I met Stan Greenberg (former Clinton’s pollster and Rep. Rosa DeLaura’s husband)
I asked him in a public forum held for my Connectcut college if polls should be trusted since the questions are often loaded. He replied quite candidly that shaping public opinion and outcomes was one of the goals of polling.

If I ran GOP strategy sessions, I’d emphasize Principle first, over polling. And I agree - the GOP should farm citizen indignation over Democrat’s obscene corruption and overwhelming economic failure.
That assumes the GOP wants / deserves to win...
