  1. It is pessimism. And it's unrealistic pessimism. The board has collectively gone well past the point of, "Just setting my expectations low so I'm not disappointed." Joe is right. The nonstop pessimism is exhausting, and there's no point for this board to even be here for us to post if every piece of news automatically gets the most negative spin imaginable. Biden's polls have improved across the board and we're talking about SCOTUS. In 2016 when the Comey letter came out and the polls tightened, the pessimism made sense. Why not wait for that possibility? Here, there's not a single thing you can post before someone goes
  2. For years, I thought that if I don't set expectations too high, then I can't be disappointed. I never knew how far people would take that. It's impossible to talk about anything because everything is worst case scenario, followed by Democrats are weak. I actually find it more sensible to say Biden has run for president 3 * and he'll carry Trump out if you have to do to get into the White House if he wins The Electoral College.
  3. But you guys literally just said damn fool if you think otherwise. So I'm trying to get a clear answer as to whether or not you think they're going to do this regardless and damn fool if you think otherwise.
  4. Nothing is a hundred percent, but it seems like you guys are saying is that you already know the outcome. And ironically would help to demotivate the people you want to be motivated.
  5. The only thing I saw was Florida Republicans calling the idea idiotic. And all of them could say no and this board would go, "Yeah but they SECRETLY are planning to do this." I just want people to be clear: are you guys saying, 100%, that Biden is not going to win and SCOTUS is going to make Trump the winner, guaranteed, this is what's gonna happen, Biden could landslide and he still loses?
  6. Wait, you think Biden is 100% not going to win because SCOTUS will hand the election to Trump no matter what?
  7. 11am: Delta is a Cat 3 at 115mph max. 11:20am: Just kidding, it's a Cat 4 at 130.
  8. A good reminder never to rest on your laurels.... even though this is all objectively good for Biden. I have no idea what happens this month. Fortunately, there's no FBI director to open up an investigation into emails, but who knows, I guess? As Joe has said, though, it's a different election: fewer undecideds, and someone said it really well that Hillary's polling was like a heart monitor (up and down month to month, a good June/August/October but a bad July/September/November), while this one has been steady. So it's different, and this could be more like 2008 than 2016. But each election is different, so until Biden is declared the winner, I'm not 100% satisfied. I'd rather be Biden right now than Trump, though.
  9. In regards to Trump's flu tweet, Facebook just took it down as it broke police on COVID-19 misinformation.
  10. Biden puts $6 million into Texas starting today. Biden makes $6M bet on Texas, ending drought for Democrats who’ve written off state for decades WWW.DALLASNEWS.COM WASHINGTON — With President Donald Trump hamstrung by a bout with COVID-19, Joe Biden is eyeing opportunity in Texas and doing something no Democratic... Also, +11 Biden in Pennsylvania via Monmouth. The previous PA poll from Monmouth was actually one of Trump's better polls.
  11. Big lines in Ohio. Don't forget that polls account for people who already voted, so regardless as to what polls say, people who early vote are considered likely voters to pollsters.
  12. At this point in 2012, things got crazy on the board. That year, national polls were close, but state polls were very strong for Obama.
  13. I may slow down on posting horse race polls since it can be overwhelming to look at every little change. Or maybe I'm full of shit. But if I don't post it, some big polls will release this week:
  14. I'm not saying, "Rest assured that Biden is 100% going to win." I'm just saying that people care too much what the base thinks. Hillary's base didn't abandon her after Comey's letter, but she still lost because there's more to America than a candidate's base of support. That's why it's called a base to begin with. They start with that foundation and try to build upon it.
  15. It's what I keep telling people: don't worry about what the base does. It's irrelevant to the election.
  16. @mclumber1 I showed the lady my comment I made about stealing your wife and doing a threesome. Her near exact words to me were, "There's something wrong with you, kid."
