A bad poll? Surely, you jest. This woman pollster was praised for her accuracy in the past, went into Iowa and missed by 17 points.
This is why I am a Democrat. Will never be a member of the party of conspiracies and the Deep State. It is all BS.
Yeah, that's a pretty striking change, and I think Trump will be slightly down from his 2020 vote total too.
Seems to me it's maybe time for two things:
-Let's be gracious winners and gracious losers as the case may be.
-Might be time to, without histrionics, take a look at the 'realignment' in party affiliation and understand the dynamics and implications for what's left/right and conservative/liberal (using the older, less derisive distinctions) and see how the parties map.
Also, I wonder if this will affect the coalition of states who are trying to instigate a movement to direct their electoral votes to the popular vote winner irrespective of how their voters voted. I always thought that was about as awful an idea as I had heard in a while.
I don't think they are capable, but it would also be a good juncture for the corporate media, regardless of lean, to do a little self reflection.
LOL. I am glad you finally admitted you’re a Democrat. It was only a matter of awaiting your coming out of the closet moment. Kamala Harris wasn’t the biggest loser last night. Neocon anti-Trumpers were the biggest losers. Don’t come to the forum this morning acting like you know anything. 51 intel signatures claiming Russian disinformation about a laptop that really was Hunter Biden’s laptop was not a conspiracy. You would still be lapping that crap up like a cat with a bowl of milk.
I'm not so sure on this. The House looks like it may also end up red. Very very close either way.
Trust me, you will not be missed. You regurgitate bad info here. Not quite as bad as Stone, but close.
Enjoy the moment. If Dems flip the house, Trump will not be able to do much except issue a bunch of executive orders.
Believe all the nonsense that comes out of Trump’s mouth over the next four years like the good little MAGA acolyte that you are.
I am not going anywhere. I guess you can't handle people who disagree with you.
To me this is more about not letting the Dems F our country up even more than they already have over Trump being able to do much.
I think he would be missed. My opinion - go light on Jeff and Stone today and for a while. It’s good to have differing opinions here. And I give credit to Jeff for being here the morning after.
OK drama queen. Announcing you are switching parties here like anybody cares. You are a democrat. Stating the obvious for effect was very 7th grader of you.
He was part of the coalition here that lectured us about Trump dragging the Rs to losing elections. Hey, I am ok with people being wrong, but then stomping his feet that he is a democrat for effect. Ok, not shit, Sherlock
It is getting a pretty emotional reaction from you for some reason. If you don't care about my posts, then don't comment.
If the Dems do take the House they will block everything Trump tries to do. However, Biden did a lot thru executive orders and Trump will as well.
From the various talking heads looking forward, Trump apparently is fully organized and ready to go on day 1 (Jan 20). For his first term his transition was shaky and he left losers like Comey in place way too long and some of the people he initially put in place were bad.
However you feel about Trump, for the US we need (and he needs) competent and America first people in the executive branch. Particularly the Justice Department has been corrupted under Biden.

I'm proud to be MAGA, Jeff, just like the majority of the country - it is a very inclusive party. Frankly, this election will benefit all Americans and you ARE already making out better than most since the stock market opened 30 minutes ago way UP.
You have become Stone, albeit Stone without the sense of humor. I wish you a good retirement.
Best joke I saw last night about midnight on X was along this line - "Florida just counted all of their votes a second time for the hell of it".
Arizona is a joke and if the state won't fix it, something needs to be done at the federal level.
Jeff - it wasn't a bad poll. It was pure fraud and an attempt to give people in your party HOPE. The fact that you fell for it is not surprising. She shared it with Democrats like JB Pritzker in advance laughing about it. I was in Iowa last week and saw exactly one Harris/Walz sign in the whole state. All other polls showed Iowa was OVER. You will note that neither Trump or Harris traveled to Iowa after that poll.
