bee Posted October 14, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Rand Paul speaking at the Trump Rally in Kentucky.. Good to see him on the campaign trail with the President.. I liked it when he spoke about the Democrat leadership doing absolutely nothing to curb the disrespectful behavior of their followers... and not only doing nothing but with the Clinton remarks about civility not returning until they gain control again..... the Democrat Leadership appear to be encouraging intimidation, harassment and mob rule... (Maxine Waters being another example) IMO a vote for the Democrats (however 'good' or 'bad' the individual candidate) at this point in history... is a vote to approve of dishonest and divisive politics of the most dangerous kind.... ie the kind that leads to civil war and pits citizens against each other ... and destroys a country ... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DieChecker Posted October 14, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Nervous Democrats ask: Could Election Day disaster strike again? https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/election/midterms/article219746670.html Quote It was this week two years ago that Hillary Clinton’s victory looked assured, when the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape of Donald Trump bragging about sexual assault appeared all but certain to end his campaign. Jesse Ferguson remembers it well. The deputy press secretary for Clinton’s campaign also remembers what happened a month later. It’s why this veteran Democratic operative can’t shake the feeling that, as promising as the next election looks for his party, it might still all turn out wrong. What cracks me up is the use of the phrase, "... it might still turn out wrong.". Wrong... Like there is a right and a wrong side of an election. ...... "YOU ALL VOTED WRONG!!!". OMG. Quote FiveThirtyEight gives Democrats a 76.9 percent chance of winning the House one month before Election Day. Their odds for Clinton’s victory two years ago? 71.4 percent. Quote Other Democratic leaders aren’t so sure. Asked if he thought his party was overconfident, Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton responded flatly, “Yes.” Democrats could win a lot of House seats, he said, or could still fall short of capturing a majority. “The point is that we’ve got to realize that this not just some unstoppable blue wave but rather a lot of tough races that will be hard-fought victories,” Moulton said. If Democrats are universally nervous about anything after 2016, it’s polling. The polls weren’t actually as favorable to Clinton and the Democrats as some remember, something 538’s Nate Silver and some other journalists pointed out at the time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember waking up the morning after the EU referendum vote - turning on the News and you would have though someone had died... such was the gloomy reporting.... you could practically hear the Funeral March playing in the background (it nearly killed the MSM to report on the Referendum result like it did with the Trump result) and THEN the avalanche of insults and hysteria began --- because of how '''''wrong''''' it all was... sound familiar... ? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAyMO Posted October 15, 2018 #6 Share Posted October 15, 2018 OK - quick question - forgetting the accuracy of polls etc why is it that it is thought Dems have 4 in 5 chance of taking the House, but Reps have a 4 in 5 chance of retaining the senate. Are the Senate and House seats in wildly different demographic areas, or do Americans split their vote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause every house seat is up for reelection while only a third of the senate seats are up for reelection and of those third of the senate seats most are democratic held seats and the few Republican seats up are in deep red states mostly. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bee Posted October 16, 2018 #8 Share Posted October 16, 2018 The Republicans have released a hard hitting Ad labeling the Democrats 'An Unhinged Mob' And illustrating why - IMO America is in deep trouble if the Democrats (in their present form) manage to regain the House... because the mob like behavior and harassment would get worse if it is endorsed by electoral victory... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, the way it is now, the braying mob mentality will get worse no matter what, if they win they’ll feel validated and if they lose they’ll double down on the “stolen election” rhetoric. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is about time for the OLD Guard of the DNC to step aside, under controlled conditions, and allow young people to take the lead. I think that would draw in a lot of Independents. Otherwise they will end up dying in office and causing special elections where anyone might win. Even a (shudder.... ) Republican... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bee Posted October 29, 2018 #18 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Electronic voting must surely be the most 'unsafe' when results can be changed and machines can be secretly (hacked?) programmed... ? We (in UK) still have the paper ballot - which could be tampered with - but it would be more difficult... The time Nigel Farage lost his bid to become an MP springs to mind... the result was delayed for hours because of problems with a lorry carrying the ballot boxes.... mmmm.....

Oct. 13 And with less than a month until Election Day, Republican voters hold an early returned-ballot lead.

Wickian Posted October 29, 2018 #21 Share Posted October 29, 2018 This isn't really all that surprising. Quote Texas Dems ask noncitizens to register to vote, send applications with citizenship box pre-checked The Texas Democratic Party asked non-citizens to register to vote, sending out applications to immigrants with the box citizenship already checked “Yes,” according to new complaints filed Thursday asking prosecutors to see what laws may have been broken. The Public Interest Legal Foundation alerted district attorneys and the federal Justice Department to the pre-checked applications, and also included a signed affidavit from a man who said some of his relatives, who aren’t citizens, received the mailing. “This is how the Texas Democratic Party is inviting foreign influence in an election in a federal election cycle,” said Logan Churchwell, spokesman for the PILF, a group that’s made its mark policing states’ voter registration practices. The Texas secretary of state’s office said it, too, had gotten complaints both from immigrants and from relatives of dead people who said they got mailings asking them to register. link 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DieChecker Posted October 30, 2018 #25 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I was just reading that some online betting sites odds of who wins the house are now in the Republicans favor. Unlike bias poll sites, these people are going to loose money if they are wrong. We'll have to wait and see, I think. But I've thought all along that the good economy will win out over Trump Fear propaganda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
