No I didn't. My point was about republicans because it's a growing trend and not the norm. It is also top republicans who head committees who are going. A trend in 2018 that led to a blue wave. A wave you still call fake news.

In all, 18 GOP House members and four senators are forgoing reelection next year without declaring their candidacy for another office, while just six Democrats in the House and one in the Senate are retiring outright. The trend mirrors 2018, when more than two dozen Republicans retired ahead of the midterms, foreshadowing the blue wave that swept in a Democratic majority.

Why are you smugly satisfied with 37%? There are reasons why it is 37%, not 50%, and dropping steadily, every election:

Two documents produced after Mitt Romney’s loss in 2012 and before Trump’s election in 2016 lay out the stakes and the choice. After Romney’s stinging defeat in the presidential election, the Republican National Committee decided that if it held to its course, it was destined for political exile. It issued a report calling on the GOP to do more to win over “Hispanics, Asian and Pacific Islanders, African Americans, Indian Americans, Native Americans, women, and youths.” There was an edge of panic in that recommendation; those groups accounted for nearly three-quarters of the ballots cast in 2012. “Unless the RNC gets serious about tackling this problem, we will lose future elections,” the report warned. “The data demonstrates this.”

But it wasn’t just the pragmatists within the GOP who felt this panic. In the most influential declaration of right-wing support for Trumpism, the conservative writer Michael Anton declared in the Claremont Review of Books that “2016 is the Flight 93 election: charge the cockpit or you die.” His cry of despair offered a bleak echo of the RNC’s demographic analysis. “If you haven’t noticed, our side has been losing consistently since 1988,” he wrote, averring that “the deck is stacked overwhelmingly against us.” He blamed “the ceaseless importation of Third World foreigners,” which had placed Democrats “on the cusp of a permanent victory that will forever obviate [their] need to pretend to respect democratic and constitutional niceties.”

The Republican Party faced a choice between these two competing visions in the last presidential election. The post-2012 report defined the GOP ideologically, urging its leaders to reach out to new groups, emphasize the values they had in common, and rebuild the party into an organization capable of winning a majority of the votes in a presidential race. Anton’s essay, by contrast, defined the party as the defender of “a people, a civilization” threatened by America’s growing diversity. The GOP’s efforts to broaden its coalition, he thundered, were an abject surrender. If it lost the next election, conservatives would be subjected to “vindictive persecution against resistance and dissent.”

Anton and some 63 million other Americans charged the cockpit. The standard-bearers of the Republican Party were vanquished by a candidate who had never spent a day in public office, and who oozed disdain for democratic processes. Instead of reaching out to a diversifying electorate, Donald Trump doubled down on core Republican constituencies, promising to protect them from a culture and a polity that, he said, were turning against them.

I also don't buy any of the polls either, since their methodology is ideologically driven. I only look at the aggregate. While it's still not legitimate, you can view general trends by watching it.

And yet, from the link: "Overall, Trump's approval rating dropped one percentage point over that same period to 47 percent."

Maybe you don't understand this - but if Trump's approval rating dropped among women, but held steady overall, it must have gone up somewhere else. Do you consider those people - whoever they might be - where his approval rating actually went up - to be a demographic that - somehow - doesn't count?

Nobody is concerned because nobody believes the polls.


Despite everything, Trump's approval rating has more or less been 43 to 44% according to the Legacy Media aggregate for three years now.

Graduating college doesn't mean that you're smart. It does, however, mean that there was a very likely chance that you were brainwashed by your liberal professors.

When I was in a freakin' community college I took an "American Government" course and all the teacher could talk about everyday was how great the Democrats were and how evil the Republicans were and how you should always vote Democrat. That was 20 years ago. I can't imagine how bad it's gotten today.

Your Legacy Media polls are intentionally skewed. The Legacy Media in its entirety is a Liberal Agenda. Somehow, they've even convinced you that isn't even the truth and that Republicans control the narrative.


Your polls failed you miserably in 2016. Anybody who said that Clinton wasn't going to win was laughed at.


This will happen again in 2020. Most likely by an even larger Electoral margin than last time.

Democrats hold on to Louisiana governor’s seat despite Trump

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards has stunned Republicans again, narrowly winning a second term Saturday as the Deep South’s only Democratic governor and handing Donald Trump another gubernatorial loss this year.

In the heart of Trump country, the moderate Edwards cobbled together enough cross-party support with his focus on bipartisan, state-specific issues to defeat Republican businessman Eddie Rispone, getting about 51% of the vote.

Another warning for Republicans: Trump can’t win you your election

Republicans who’ve come not quite close enough in off-year elections, losing a gubernatorial race in Louisiana weeks after similarly getting beaten in Kentucky. What’s worse for the GOP, of course, is that neither of those states is what you might call blue. President Trump won them by 20 and 30 points, respectively, in 2016.

I've already addressed this in another thread. You'd be doing yourself a favor not reading too deeply into it.

There have been 4 Republican governors in Louisiana in the last 140 years.

There have been 6 in Kentucky in the last 100 years... Only 2 of them were in the last 48 years.

That's deceptive. Mike Foster Louisiana 1996-2004 Republican. Bobby Jindal Louisiana 2008-2016 Republican. Buddy Roemer 1988-1992. Switched parties from democrat to republican while in office. Dave Treen Republican 1980-1984.

A Republican has been governor of Louisiana for 24 out of the last 40 years. That is more than half the time since 1980. I'm not even going to check on your claim about Kentucky.

If you knew your history you'd know the south leaned democratic until the civil rights act in 1969. That pissed off southerners so much they started voting Republican.

Do try to keep in mind that at the end of the day the popular vote means nothing and that the key battleground states are all that are going to matter.

Also keep in mind they've been lying for so long about the polling, just as they did in 2016, that the fact that they're already considering the possibility that they were wrong again this early in even amidst all of the bullshit that is going on is extremely telling.


Shouldn't impeachment been the game changer? Shouldn't a majority of independent voters have opened their eyes by now?

Yeah I don't think so Jack. One of your links, Neswweek, bases it's polling results on Fireside Strategies.

Firehouse Strategies is a public relations consulting firm headquartered in Washington, DC. It was founded in 2016 by Republican strategists Terry Sullivan, Alex Conant, and Will Holley, who served on Senator Marco Rubio's 2016 presidential campaign.

Your other link is based on democrat's fears about the election not recent polling.

Newsweek printed it. Lefty shill Newsweek. And they didn't even put their normal op-ed bias in there and presented it as a fact.

And yup. Democrats are scared. They have every reason to be.

Trump blew Clinton out of the water last time when everybody including most Republicans didn't think he stood a chance.


The lead-up to 2020 is a much different landscape. Independents are siding with Trump. The impeachment is a lost cause and an embarrassment to the Democrats and the entire country. Minority support for Trump is rising. Unless the economy tanks big time, there is nothing stopping Trump from getting reelected, and by a larger margin than last time.



Why don't you start praying with Bill Mahar for a new recession and show us all what an asshole you really are.

I'm fully aware. I read the article.

EDITED TO ADD:

You're missing the point here, so I'll do you a favor and spell it out for you.


I don't put stock in any one poll, as I've said a million times before. I've also said before that just like in 2016 the aggregate of polls have a blatant Liberal bias and they're intentionally manipulated through methodology to get the results they want to show.

I'm SURE that is also the case with this singular poll as well because both sides are guilty of manipulating polls.


Make no mistake, I did not show that poll as proof that Trump is winning. Unlike you, I'm not a hypocrite.


My point here was that Newsweek, a publication that has a blatant Liberal bias, put out a story about that singular poll without any editorialism and without any of the usual leading comments bringing you to the conclusion that you shouldn't take it seriously.


Newsweek seems to be taking that poll very seriously.



THAT is why I posted that article.

Kelly leads McSally in Arizona Senate race

Retired astronaut Mark Kelly (D) leads Sen. Martha McSally (R) by a narrow 3-point margin in Arizona, a state critical to Democratic chances of recapturing the Senate in the 2020 elections, according to a new poll.

lol

That's cute.



You probably should pay attention to the fact that this lead has grown smaller since the August poll, and that the incumbent Republican has a high favorability among Hispanic voters.



Also keep in mind that there are 3,588,466 registered voters, of which 74.17% of them voted in the last presidential election.

This poll surveyed 628 of them, or 0.00017% of voters.


Also to note is that despite the fact that Rocket Man polls better among females and McSally polls better among males, the study polled 52% women and 48% men. This alone could swing the result 1 point in favor of McSally if it were even representation.







And, for extreme lolz factor, apparently there were quite a few retards that were polled.

Page 6 asks the question "When you cast your vote for a member of Congress, which party will you vote for?"

278 people said Democrat (44%)
278 people said Republican (44%)



So three percent more said they'd vote for Rocket Man when asked the very same question in a different way.

It's undetermined at this time if these retards were Democrats or Republicans.


In all likelihood, no more than 10% of any of the 628 people even knew who either of these people are this far out before the election.


Let's see what the polls say when they both start the brainwashing ad campaigns, shall we?

New poll shows Lindsey Graham 'extremely vulnerable' in 2020
By Dan Desai Martin -
December 13, 2019 5:04 PM

A 2020 win in South Carolina could help Democrats as they attempt to take back the majority in the Senate.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) holds only a small 2-point lead over likely Democratic opponent Jaime Harrison in a state Donald Trump carried by 14 points in 2016, according to a new poll released Friday.

According to a Change Research/Post and Courier poll, Graham holds a 47% to 45% lead over Harrison, with 9% of voters still undecided.

"Senator Lindsey Graham's favorability is exceptionally low among Independent voters and in hypothetical general election match-ups," the poll notes. "He looks extremely vulnerable against Democratic contender Jaime Harrison."

First off...

Before the title of the article you cited here, IN BIG BOLD LETTERS are the words "Progressive journalism is under attack. Please help us fight back! DONATE"

lol... no agenda here, I'm sure.



Second...

It's online polling. Online polling is historically inaccurate, for quite a few reasons, but especially due to the nature of internet anonymity.

Quote:

Change Research surveyed 998 likely primary voters in South Carolina, including 392 likely Democratic primary voters. The margin of error as traditionally calculated is ± 3.1% for the full sample and ±4.9% for Democratic voters. Change Research reaches voters via targeted online ads that point people to an online survey instrument. Our Dynamic Online Sampling delivers large samples that accurately reflect the demographics of a population. Post-stratification was done on age, gender, ethnicity, region, 2016 primary and presidential vote, and self-reported social media use.


It's virtually meaningless.



Third...

Even Nate Silver admits a Liberal bias to "Change Research" and their methodology.

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/pollster-ratings/

Anybody who doesn't give two shits what Nate Silver's opinion is about anything can just read Change Research's about page to see how gross they are.

https://www.changeresearch.com/our-story




Forth...

The Change Research poll states "Senator Lindsey Graham has a low favorability rating among likely South Carolina general election voters, with 38% of respondents viewing him very or somewhat favorably, and 53% of respondents viewing him very or somewhat unfavorably."

The same thing could be said about ANY member of congress. 38% is actually quite high for a congressman, with most being somewhere in the 20's at any given time.

This boost is likely because of Republicans in the state that are against impeachment. It's the same boost that Nancy Pelosi is getting right now too from Democrats, which in the RCP aggregate of polls has her at 37.7% favorable and 49.9% unfavorable.

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/other/FavorabilityRatin
gsPoliticalLeaders.html


These are HIGH numbers for a member of congress. Hate to burst your bubble.



In summation, we have a highly biased online poll from a highly biased polling firm being reported on with a highly biased spin that has nothing to do with reality of statistical history even if the polling was somehow spot on in the first place.

Wowie!

Seriously dude.

Do yourself a favor and don't buy into any singular poll.


I'll tell that to anybody on either side. Any dipshit that's going to point out a singular poll that Hannity showed them for whatever his nightly narrative in between boner pill ads is going to be let down when time shoots the results down.

And, just like the poll I debunked from the other day before this, if you're going to put stock into a single poll, at least look at the polls history and see what the numbers were the last time it was conducted. The media spin might give the poll a headline that sounds positive, but if the poll is actually showing worse numbers for what you want to see than the same poll from a few months before, chances are things aren't going as well as the news headline framed it.

Oh... and I just happened to have that tab up still that 538 used to grade different polling firms and even Nate Silver gives Change Research a "C" rating.

It comes in 26th place for the most polls being analyzed by 538, with 57 polls, whatever their criteria are. That might not sound high, but the bias page I cited earlier has at least 300 polling firms on there, if not 400 or even 500. 57 is certainly enough polls to go through to make a case that a polling firm is legitmate... especially if they're giving you results that you want to hear.

But even Nate Silver isn't going to put any stock in online polling.

Note: Not a poll, and reported by axios.com which is considered LEFT-Center on mediabiasfactcheck.




It doesn't matter at all if 5 million more people vote for the Dem nominee than they did for Hillary in California, New York and Illinois. Not even 10 or 20 million more.

It's the swing states that matter, and Trump made a few more of them in 2016 that nobody ever would have believed he could have.

At the end of the day, the Democrats on the debate stage haven't addressed anything these voters are actually concerned about, and in many cases have outright defied their wishes.


When it's a head-to-head matchup of Trump vs one whoever is picked, watch the Democrat support in the states that matter do a nosedive.





All Wednesday is going to do is give you a license to bitch about things for the next five years. One can only hope that enough Democrats do the right thing and put an end to this now so we can go back to sanity for at least the next five years.

Do Right, Be Right. :)
