Poll: In Midwestern States, Trump Leads a Generic Democrat Candidate 46% to 40%
The number doesn't reflect his standing in any one particular state, but in the region overall.
Decent numbers, though.From @julie_Kelly2's twitter timeline, first put on twitter by Frank Luntz.
There's a reason why President Trump is becoming more popular in important Midwestern battleground states like Pennsylvania: Voters don't want to lose the ongoing economic renaissance that is transforming their lives. According to a recent opinion survey from The Wall Street Journal, the president "cumulatively leads a generic Democratic opponent, 46 percent to 40 percent," in Pennsylvania, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. The survey's findings are not surprising, and it’' no small coincidence that those states are all thriving under the president's pro-growth economic policies. Indeed, Trump’s economic agenda has had a profound effect on Pennsylvania: The state's 4.0 percent unemployment rate is now the lowest it’s been in nearly two decades, and the economy continues to add new jobs at a dizzying pace.

I never really followed generic polling. Is this good or bad for Trump? Is the "generic" Dem generally stronger or weaker than a particular Dem when the polls start to get specific?

East-coasters consider them Midwest because they don't want PA in the Mid-Atlantic. PA consider themselves Mid-Atlantic, as does the Midwest.
Kinda like CO. Kansas and Nebraska often consider CO to be where the midwest peters out. Colorado and places west consider CO to be where the west begins.

"OMG, the unemployment rate is 5%! Bad Bad!"
followed by...
"But 5% isn't actually all that bad." (We still remembered double digits from the end of Carter and beginning of Reagan.)
followed by...
"Tell that to the people who are unemployed!!" eleventy... (though that was before "eleventy" was a thing.)

It's amazing how often they work that lie into the latest story on Trump, or even an unrelated story they blame on Trump.

This means that any recount... ANY recount... will be a national recount.
No one will ignore King County because a recount will show a Dem winner for the county, the way it is now. I hope the "machine" in various places is ready for this.
We currently only recount in limited areas where the numbers are "close". That's over.

The demographics of states are changing in HUGE ways right now and we can look at the tax bill being a big reason why. The loss of the SALT deduction over $10,000 is having a profound impact in where people live - the people who can afford to leave the high-tax states, and those who can't stay. It may ironically be why Trump loses in 2020 - his policies benefit blue states' blue collar workers more, and that won't be enough to counterbalance the loss of other "red" states. Especially if the RINOS have anything to do with it.

You seem to be misunderstanding me.
I'm not saying that he's guaranteed the nomination because of his vice presidency, but that he's going to perform significantly better in the primary because he's a former VP.
I think he'll win the nomination based on a combination of his increased status and the fact that he's going to be filling the center-left gap in the race. There are too many people fighting for the far left, and the party as a whole is less enamored with the far left than Twitter and New York based media want them to be. The real fight for the nomination is for the center-left position, and Biden has the best shot of winning that and, by extension, the nomination as a whole.

He's polling well now because most people have never heard of 90% of the clown car Democrat candidates. At this point that's ALL polling tells you: what names people recognize.

You must have missed the "name recognition" part of this quiz. Nobody is choosing candidates in the polls based on the person or their positions, just "I know that dude."
Bernie and Biden are both too old and too white, and are going NOWHERE.

He has one huge advantage. He's like the chick in those "Twilight" stories - he's a non-entity. He is someone on whom anyway can project their ideal. He is the voter, because he is nothing on his own. Whatever your vision of a Democrat is, O'Rourke will do. He is empty and can be filled as you wish.

It's inevitable. High population states vote Democrat. High population means "lots of people," so once the Dem policies are enacted, the business starts to dry up, and leaves a lot of people out of work.
Those people then vote further and further to the Left for the welfare. Once the full leftism kicks in, the place becomes a horrible third world shithole with a handful of billionaires and everyone else on the dole.
They then move to somewhere less horrible, and repeat the whole process.

All the geniuses pushing this conveniently forget that this same issue has already been to the Supreme Court, back when the Tea Party movement was trying to get Term Limits placed on Congressmen.
Supreme Court Ruling: No State has the right to put any conditions on holding a Federal Office other than those which are found in the Constitution itself. That's why all of the federal term limits bills were thrown out. That's why the Presidency was limited to 2 terms by Constitutional Amendment; it couldn't be done any other way.
So no, those states do not have the power under the Constitution to place any additional restrictions on Presidential Candidates.

But for 8 years everyone on the Left acted as if he was such a charming old guy, not the sleazebag DC backstabber he'd always been, and he might get a lot of votes if he's the only Dem candidate who doesn't embrace the far left/Socialist policies the rest of them are (e.g., open borders, Green New Deal, etc.).
Posted by: Lizzy at March 18, 2019 02:16 PM (W+vEI)
I think a lot of people over-rate Biden's chances because there is a feeling among many --I happen to be one---that IF Hillary had been indicted and had to drop out in '16, Biden could have and would have stepped in and beaten Trump.
But that was only possible as a last- minute candidate last time out. The metrics are WAY different now.

1972 redux
Posted by: REDACTED at March 18, 2019 02:21 PM (RZ6R1)
Just read an article over at Seattle Times regarding the 737 MAX 8 MCAR software and it's pretty damning if the allegations in the article are true.
Basically, the MCAR software was certified to put horizontal stabilizer in the down position of no more that .6 degrees. In actuality, the system allowed 2.5 degrees.
But here's the kicker: Every time a pilot would pull back on the yoke, the system would reset itself and initiate another 2.5 degrees down. As long as the pilot was fighting back against MCAR, this would continue until the stabilizer was in full down position.
AoA sensors were another big problem.
Wow if true.

Yeah, my dad came from Missouri so every couple years we'd vacation there, driving across the country from Oregon to spend a couple weeks with grandma. Was usually around July 4th too, so we'd get to play with real fireworks rather than a smoking thing that supposedly was a snake and snaps.
And cheap, those fireworks were so cheap we could buy bushels. We bought like 8 packages of bottle rockets and were setting them off in the back of the pickup her husband had. One fell off into the bed, where all the rest of the bottlerockets were, and shot directly into one of the packages.
They were firing off all over the place, exploding in the truck in the trees, in the porch. My grandma was laughing so hard she could barely dodge them.
Missouri (back then at least) had the most lax laws I've ever seen, anywhere. The fishing and hunting pamphlet was like 8 pages long, the size of a tract. It was basically "don't use dynamite to fish with and don't shoot nobody"

And while the useless Republicans are always happy/stupid enough to gouge their base right in the eyes over and over again, I think the DNC is smarter than that. And I think they'll throw in with a young communist, whether it costs them an election or not.

Now I have no doubt whatsoever that he and his wife would continue to be earnest liberals (read: brain dead). Why would he move? To get away from high taxes, strict regulation, and all the other problems of California?

Crazier stuff has happened, it might happen. But I think they're gonna ramp off hard left and it will be curious to watch. At this point Trump seems certain to win, but I figured Obama couldn't possibly win with a bad economy, horrible foreign policy crises constantly going on, and annoyed public over the ACA. And hey, he probably didn't win, if you checked the fraud, but Romney couldn't -- or didn't want to -- beat the margin of fraud.

Wow if true.
I saw that same article, and it one other big reveal in it that I haven't seen anywhere else - they said that investigators have determined that it was the Autopilot that forced the crash of the Indonesian plane a couple months ago, because one sensor had failed. That is huge, I thought the decision was still under investigation.
For an analogy, think of a fine sports car with a lot of gauges that are nice to have, but the car will still run fine without them. Boeing appears to have built a the equivalent of a car where, if the oil pressure gauge fails, a bomb goes off and instantly kills everyone in the car.

A certain demographic wants him to whisper sweet nothings to them and that's Beto's talent.

Me too. And I think they don't care about winning this election. I think this is all much more focused on prying the Party out of the hands of the geritriatic gangsters running it right now, and remaking it as an out-and-proud Communist Party.
They know they will another election, sometime - and they plan for it to be the last one.

Yeah I think they believe this is McGovern's time to shine. Dukakis and Mondale could have won in 2020!
I think they may be due for another McGovern style thrashing in 2020.

Neil's a shitlib, but I like his old stuff, and you're right. I've heard Down by the River a MILLION times and he never did explain why he shot "his baby."
At least Hendrix told you straight up "I caught her messin' around with another man. That ain't too cool."

Does Rush think Trump is going to lose GA, FL & TX?
Posted by: redridinghood at March 18, 2019 02:27 PM (hECVl)
-----------------------------
My own opinion is that Trump will take those states again in 2020 assuming the economy is still doing well and nothing that is major and unusual happens geopolitically. I live in GA. The future beyond that is uncertain at best.

They move to where the jobs can grow. It's really roundabout on the modern corporation.
Trying to get maximum profit for their investors, they move where the costs are lower for doing business. Then they move all their blue-staters in to work in that area, and the blue-staters, as private citizens, start thinking that they paid more taxes where they had been, they can pay more here, and besides, they need more social programs....

In my more optimistic moments, I agree.
But I fear an "engineered" financial crisis or massive voter fraud or the MSM just trying to make everyone sick of Trump---which I think they are doing on purpose already

No, you don't understand. These people think the problem is the *people* in the northern states they left (minorities) and don't see the connection. So they want that european socialism that you can have in countries without a lot of low income people, but they also want the low cost workers. So they move south, vote for socialism, and also advocate for open borders. 1+1+1=3. But they don't want three, they want 1 and they also want 1, and 1. all together, but not 3.

That is just in contrast to his blue-white Irish skin. There is no way to make those teeth white in contrast. Think the Cortez lady with perfect (if prominent teeth). Won't ever happen with the whitey-mcwhite O'Roarke dude.

Rush explained the poll showing Trump losing GA, FL TX et al as the
people who f'd up the midwest and northeast is moving south and turning
those states purple.
It takes a special kind of stupid to move to another state to get
away from the taxes and other mess and then vote for that same mess in
the new state

Had a long conversation with a buddy that is deep in SW Airlines and 737s yesterday. He said in both instances (Lyon and Ethiopian) the pilots were fighting the software. They apparently didn't know they could turn off the trim program or couldn't figure it out fast enough.
He did mention SW's 40,000 cycles in the two years they've had the Max versions on the 38 planes they have and the pilots know the way it works and haven't resorted to over riding the system. He thinks the pilots feeling the plane lower its nose during take-off rattles less experienced pilots.
He also mentioned the power of the engines will not allow that plane to stall and referred to a video showing one going vertical very quickly when they were introduced.

Oh I have plenty of upper middle class lefty acquaintances.
To a one they believe there are other "rich" people the government can and should be taxing. But not them. Because their "low" six figure salaries don't make them "rich". Once you count for the nanny, maid, two cars, expensive mortgage, quarterly travel overseas, and 5 dinners out a week they are barely putting as much into their 401k as they would want to retire at 65.

So training issue?
I also had read that all the US carriers elected to buy on optional warning light in the cockpit related to MCAR. The foreign carriers did not.

Seems like everybody had a neighbor or cousin on the other side. So they killed each other real good.

Training and perhaps software upgrade. The plane is loaded with electronics that constantly communicate with Boeing and the carrier. It sits at the gate and has diagnostics and upgrades happening all the time.

The left's actual dream candidate is Stacy Abrams, the failed candidate for Georgia governor. The reason she is favored is because she is black, female and at least as qualified as Hillary Clinton. Although, she is not married and there is no information on her sexual preferences, she is overweight which is another plus to the left.

Essentially, that would disenfranchise the greater electorate. It would give urban areas of NY, CA and IL (home to most far left loonies and the parasites they rely on for their power) the ability to govern the US in perpetuity.
That's in addition to the slow replacement of the electorate by illegals.
And in addition to the Deep State creating two sets of laws - a strict code for red staters, and legal/enforcement nullification for blue staters.
And in addition to Big Tech/Big Media censoring badthink in favor of The Narrative.
The Democrats have many, many strategies to build the road to American serfdom.
There are far too many 'moderate' Democrats unwilling to do anything about it.
Primo Levi, who knew a thing or two about how frogs are boiled and about totalitarianism, made a useful insight in his "The Periodic Table" about useful or apathetic idiots.
He wrote to a German (his boss in a slave camp where he worked - and starved - as a chemist) who wrote him asking forgiveness and citing the usual excuses.
"I admitted that we are not all born heroes, and that a world in which everyone would be like him, that is, honest and unarmed, would be tolerable...but this is an unreal world.
"In the real world, the armed exist, they build Auschwitz, and the honest and unarmed clear the road for them; therefore every German must answer for Auschwitz, indeed every man, and after Auschwitz it is no longer permissible to be unarmed."
The 'honest and unarmed" people in the Democrat party are the ones voting to end the EV, to allow unimpeded illegal immigration, to vote for gun control. Who stand by while honest debate is shut down in every public venue. Who applaud on Facebook or Twitter while someone they disagree with is physically attacked or their homes/jobs/families threatened.
