Quick Hits

The Hill: Maybe Joe Biden was a stronger candidate than Kamala.

With the Nov. 5 election just over a fortnight away, here is an intriguing thought experiment.
By most accounts, the election is still a horse race too close to call.

Um, no. Nice cope, though.

But although Vice President Kamala Harris quickly assumed the presidential mantle from Joe Biden and put in place an impressive start-up, October has not been particularly kind to her. Donald Trump has closed the electoral gaps, and some believe he is actually leading.
No matter who wins, we have to ask: Would President Biden have been a better candidate and choice despite suffering from the effects of age and 81 years? Further, suppose that the disastrous June 27 debate with Trump had not taken place, or that Biden had been firing on all cylinders that night. Would Biden have been forced to withdraw? And whether Harris loses or wins, some will ask whether Biden might still have been a better candidate.
Bob Woodward's new book, "War," might not be dispositive in representing Biden's strengths and weaknesses. The book does add weight to this thought experiment, though. Woodward paints a very positive picture of Biden's ability to lead and to govern despite making mistakes, most notably the disastrous withdrawal from Kabul.
Woodward also reports that Biden's obvious decline was physical and not mental. This was caused in part by prior medical conditions accelerating the effects of age on a body. There were also the strains of high office; the president refused to limit his overworked schedule despite valid criticisms that he was on near-permanent holiday in Delaware or Camp David.

Bob Woodward is a huckster and a fraud.

As I have previously written, Americans may not know the winner right away...

Yes, you're all saying that. Why are you all saying that?

Bob Casey and Tammy Baldwin don't believe Kamala is winning. We know this because they're running ads claiming that they stand with Trump on key issues.

Two Democratic senators facing reelection in battleground states are pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into adverts that play up their support for Donald Trump and his policies, according to an exclusive analysis of broadcast data.
It suggests they are trying to win over Trump supporters to hold their seats, even if it undermines Kamala Harris' campaign.
In key counties in Pennsylvania, Sen. Bob Casey has shifted the bulk of his TV advertising to a 30-second spot entitled 'Independent' that features a married couple comprising a Republican and Democrat explaining how he 'bucked Biden to protect fracking and he sided with Trump to end NAFTA and put tariffs on China.
'And in Wisconsin, Sen. Tammy Baldwin has made a similar move with an ad that emphasizes how she worked with Trump on ensuring U.S. iron and steel is used in infrastructure projects.
Between them, they spent $650,000 on those two ads in the four days up to Monday, according to an analysis of data collected by AdImpact which monitors election advertising.

Between them, they spent $650,000 on those two ads in the four days up to Monday, according to an analysis of data collected by AdImpact which monitors election advertising.
The move is most distinct in Pennsylvania.
From Monday, 'Independent' was the only advert Casey's campaign was running in the Erie, Harrisburg, Johnstown and Pittsburgh areas, according to the analysis.
Yet in the deep blue Democratic areas of Wilkes-Barre and Philadelphia his campaign is running a different ad, entitled 'Selling Out America,' which attacks his opponent.
'It is like he is running two campaigns, which is not a stupid thing to do,' said a person familiar with political ad buying.
'But it is also fair to say that in much of the state his closing message is a pro-Trump message.'
The ad includes a 2017 headline linking the Democrat to Trump's policies. 'Casey supports Trump's trade order,' it says.
The race is finely poised. A slew of recent polls shows that Republican Dave McCormick has eaten into Casey's lead.
On Monday, the Cook Political Report moved the race from 'lean Democratic' to 'toss up.'

Bob Casey voted with Biden more than almost any other Democrat Senator -- but now, two weeks before the election, he's an "independent" and almost Trump's running mate, huh?

Nate Silver wrote a list of 24 reasons why Kamala "might" -- or will, I'd say -- lose.

Harris is the favorite to win the popular vote, but the Electoral College bias favors Republicans by about 2 percentage points. In an era of intense partisanship and close elections, this is inherently difficult for Democrats to overcome.
Inflation hit a peak of 9.1 percentage points in June 2022. It has abated now, but prices remain much higher than when Joe Biden took office, and voters are historically highly sensitive to inflation. Democrats can also plausibly be blamed for it given intensive increases in government spending during COVID recovery efforts.

...
Incumbent parties worldwide are doing very poorly, and the historical incumbency advantage has diminished to the point where it may now be an incumbency handicap instead given perpetually negative perceptions about the direction of the country.
...
Illegal/unauthorized immigration increased substantially during the first few years of the Biden/Harris administration amid a rising global backlash to immigration.

Harris ran far to her left in 2019, adopting many unpopular positions, and doesn't really have a viable strategy for explaining her changing stances.
The cultural vibes are shifting to the right, and the left continues to pay a price for the excesses of 2020 on COVID, crime, "wokeness," and other issues.
Voters have nostalgia for the relatively strong economic performance in the first three years of Trump's term and associate the problems of 2020 with Democrats, even though they weren't in charge at the time.

Dude, Fauci and Birx were in control of this country's covid policy and they are obviously hardcore authoritarian leftists.

...
Many men, especially young men, feel lost amidst declining college enrollment, contributing to a rightward shift and a growing gender gap.
...
Harris is seeking to become the first woman president. In the only previous attempt, undecideds broke heavily against Hillary Clinton, and she underperformed her polls.
Trust in media continues to fall to abysmal levels. One can debate how to attribute blame for this between longstanding conservative efforts to discredit the media, a secular decline in trust in institutions, and various overreaching and hypocrisy in the press. But it's hard for even legitimate Trump critiques to penetrate the mass public. Trump's conviction on a series of felony charges hardly made any difference, for instance.
...

Foreign policy might not matter much to voters, but the world has become more unstable under Biden's tenure. There has been a decline in democracy worldwide and an increase in interstate conflict, crises in the Middle East and Ukraine, deteriorating US-China relations, increasing immigration flows because of global instability, and a pullout from Afghanistan that negatively impacted Biden's popularity.
The Israel-Hamas war split the Democratic base in a way no comparable issue has split the GOP base.
There are more left-leaning third-party candidates than right-leaning ones, and the former leading third-party candidate (RFK Jr.) endorsed Trump and undermined Harris's post-convention momentum.
The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, has become a huge Trump stan and is doing everything in his power to tip the election to him. Twitter/X remains an influential platform among journalists but has shifted far to the right. Elon and Silicon Valley have also created a permission structure for other wealthy elites to advocate for Trump explicitly and provided a new base of money and cultural influence.

Trump was very nearly killed in an assassination attempt, and then there was a second one against him. The first attempt was closely correlated with an increase in favorability ratings for Trump, and polling shows he's considerably more popular and sympathetic than in 2016 or 2020.

Oh right, that little thing the media has done its best to pretend out of existence.

Harris has been running on vibes and has failed to articulate a clear vision for the country. It might have been a good strategy if the "fundamentals" favored her, but they don't.

"Media reporter" Brian Stelter (who is a potato) claims that it's the right making the McDonald's stop a "three day story," and not the left for raving about it in their latest bout of hysteria:

October Surprise attempt?

Military Times: Army ordered to release records on Trump's Arlington cemetery visit. A federal judge has ordered Army officials to release their records by the end of this week regarding President Donald Trump’s controversial visit to Arlington National Cemetery this summer.

“With the election just two weeks away, the American people have a clear and compelling interest in knowing how the government responded to an alleged incident involving a major presidential candidate who has a history of politicizing the military,” Chioma Chukwu, the group’s interim executive director, said in a statement following the order.

No.

The Party wouldn't have done what it did if he were. This is not that hard. Biden had precisely *one* benefit over Harris: he knew - or his handlers knew, if nothing else - not to go out and fight, but to stay home and campaign from his basement.

Kamala can't even do that.

This is significant because there are those who think all Democrats have to remain in lockstep and stridently support The Drunk. While it’s tough to be too cynical, the Left is riddled with competing interests and some of their factions *hate* each other. They do not necessarily all fall in line. Consider Whitmer. Her communion mockery stunt in no way helped Harris; it only pleased the Left and likely offended Catholics. She wants to run in 2028 and Harris would be in her way.

That is wisdom. We've had 2 straight national elections with our side being overconfident. Yes, many signs look good. But they can still steal.

I live in NC. Normally, I'd be pretty confident. But they've killed Robinson, with GOPe help, and I do worry about the hurricane counties.

And we don't know what escalated tactics they have up their sleeves. I'd say it is definitely less than a 50% chance Trump actually becomes President in January. If they go full Maduro, who will stop them? How?

YES ... America does not want a woman POTUS in general, but certainly not a commie incompetent sellout like Harris.

And yet DeepState is working to force illegal alien votes be counted, foreign votes be counted, and all the fake signature "American" votes be counted. This is their "greatest election fraud machine" ever. The mail trucks full of fake signature ballots are already on the move. imo

If the GOP take the Senate, get a better majority in the house, and the white house, Trump will only have the Senate & House leadership to fight to get anything done. Just like in 2016.

In fact, don't put it past the GOPe to consider Trump a lame duck and try to screw him out of everything.

STERLING, Mass. — A police investigation is underway after lawn signs displayed at a Massachusetts home in support of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris were set ablaze last week.

Officers responding to a report of a fire on the front lawn of a home in the Worcester County town of Sterling around 10 p.m. on Oct. 17 launched an arson and vandalism investigation after finding a number of torched political signs, according to Sterling Police Chief Sean Gaudette.

Sterling Fire Chief David C. Hurlbut, Jr. confirmed that members of his department were called to the scene to extinguish multiple burning political signs...

Um, Biden and Harris have only been the executives for a few years, so the underlying assumption or purpose for this sentence is that their plan isn't their plan going forward? It's a hiccup? I don't get it (even though I do...*nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more, say no more*).

There were also the strains of high office; the president refused to limit his overworked schedule despite valid criticisms that he was on near-permanent holiday in Delaware or Camp David."

1. Biden didn't have a mental decline.
2. Biden worked so hard that he had a mental decline.
3. Biden overworked himself.
4. Criticisms that Biden was on a permanent holiday at the beach were valid.

They gave lots more mileage to Trump's clever political move, drew more attention to Harris' lies about working there, and beclowned themselves by thinking people need to know that Trump didn't really work there.

I just went to the McD's drive-through. The young lady serving me looked a little glum. I said, "Please tell your manager that we haven't been here in years, but the Trump thing made my wife nostalgic for it." I wasn't sure how she'd react, but she started laughing and burst into a big grin. I think it gave their employees a shot in the arm.

Barack Obama in 2008, was preparing to do so once again this election. But according to two people familiar with the situation, executive editor Terry Tang told editorial board staff earlier this month that the paper would not be endorsing a candidate in the presidential election this cycle, a decision that came from the paper’s owner Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a doctor who made his fortune in the healthcare industry.”

2. In the interim before the inauguration (days before), Biden assumes room temperature and Harris becomes president.
(this removes the stigma of that "breaking the glass ceiling nonsense as Harris is sworn in for less than a week of Presidency).
3. The Left riots continuously after losing the election and starts burning cities (not just select buildings...but every single building they can get their hands on). It's a mess...and absolute conflagration of idiocy. A tantrum of untold proportions....and Harris makes no effort to mitigate it. None at all.
4. Meanwhile, in the week Harris holds the presidency, China makes a move on Taiwan, Iran starts the ritual suicide by declaring war on Israel, and Russia initiates a final offensive to acquire all of Ukraine.
5. Harris calls a press conference and appears, without question, high or drunk.

This would be epic....and entertaining. Admit it.

Trump volunteered to pay for the funeral of a murdered soldier.
But when the bill came, he became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a f--king Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: “Don’t pay it!”

316 >>For the first half of the year, I repeatedly pointed out that Dems had no choice but Kamala if Biden dropped out.

We forget now because it was such an epic failure but for the previous year and a half the overwhelming narrative is that lawfare was going to take Trump out. Not just out of the race but he would be in prison.

They failed miserably. In fact, it hurt them. And they never planned for Joe's dementia because they got away with it for years.

324 I'm fairly convinced that the Democrats have punted this election cycle. I think they would've tried to see how far they could've taken it with Biden, but when he crapped his pants on live television, they figured they'd kill two birds with one stone and throw Kamala to the wolves and just get rid of her from the national scene once and for all. No point in wasting a good candidate on a long shot election anyway.

I'm still weary of the cheat, but I think even they have to understand how dangerous the level of cheat required would be.

She has no idea what her constituents want, need, or desire. She can't be trusted to take her trash to the curb. How she feels about Trump is irrelevant.

336 "Trust in media continues to fall to abysmal levels. One can debate how to attribute blame for this between longstanding conservative efforts to discredit the media, a secular decline in trust in institutions, and various overreaching and hypocrisy in the press. But it's hard for even legitimate Trump critiques to penetrate the mass public. Trump's conviction on a series of felony charges hardly made any difference, for instance."

Perhaps the most tone-deaf paragraph in the long, sordid history of American media.

Okay, until the next one...

Newsom is probably the front runner as of right now, and Walz might’ve done himself some favors in the VP debate, but both of those candidates have issues. Newsom had to pull some strong cheat just to avoid getting recalled in California!

The eventual nominee probably hasn’t appeared on the scene yet. I’m sure the Dems are going to want to pull another Obama out of their hat, a young, charismatic smooth talker who can answer questions without cackling and with no record to hang around his neck like an albatross.

339 I ask you this in response to these two broken sentences.

" With the Nov. 5 election just over a fortnight away, here is an intriguing thought experiment.

By most accounts, the election is still a horse race too close to call."

As an American, in America, speaking to an American audience, how many times have you used the word "fortnight?"

The game is given away right there. Americans don't use that word. we say, "In two weeks." If we do something "fortnightly" we do it "Biweekly."

Author, is a pretentious fuck.

I live in Australia. I say "fortnightly" grudgingly, but only after I say "biweekly." or "every other week." and then I clarify for the crowns simple children. "Fortnightly"/"Fortnight."

Meanwhile, I'm American, the manifest destiny of anglo dominance, which casts aside it's failed source.

341 Mark Cuban is a dot com bubble con artist. His Broadcast.com was based on him stealing broadcasts from Canada, and then using a physical connect to the US and then broadcasting it, in a way that is illegal, but wasn't yet defined as illegal. But a bunch of idiots decided to make a Pirate a billionaire.

Elon Built several rockets, effectively based on income earned from Paypal, which bought out his brothers architecture which WORKED, and then fired Elon because he wanted to make it easire to access by using Window's instead of snobby Unix, and Then when PayPal went public they went windows!

WHAT A DUMMY.

Elon walked away with about 300 million, while holding stock that he earned, and invested almost all of it into his ventures, and also forwarding much of it to his brother, who is the TRUE creator of the paypal system, through their shared efforts in "X."

But lets hear about how elon just buys shit luckily.

Again. Elon had only about 200 million into SpaceX while Bezos had promised a billion, and so did what's his cock face from microsoft with his failed space efforts. They were followers, Elon Believed, and now we have history in the making as the
