Dems Feeling Fugly Now

Pollsters in early September were forecasting a blue tsunami. Now, the tides have turned. Not only is talk fading of a blue tsanami, but pollsters are beginning to hedge their bets. Most are now predicting more Republican wins or warning of “Republican steals.”

Will the GOP manage to hold both the House and Senate? Maybe, maybe not. Our odds appear best in the Senate, while if we take the House, the margins could be extremely thin. In other words, this election is shaping up as a real nailbiter.

With any luck, the Democrats will get their clocked cleaned. It’s a party that needs to flounder until it can muster the courage to expel its most radical and hardcore leftists, the socialist rabble. The Democrats will only turn more moderate if they first get kicked in the teeth hard. Here’s more from Steve Turley.

 

Polls Now Shifting Toward GOP

All summer long, polls suggested that Republicans badly trailed their Democratic rivals and could face a bloodbath in this coming November’s general election. Not so fast!

The latest polls reflect a steady and, in some cases quite large shift, toward the GOP in the aftermath of President Donald Trump’s midterm convention in Dallas, Texas.  Some 100 million Americans watched the convention, many using social media platforms that bypass the fake news and its decisively Democratic propaganda.

Where have the polling shifts been the most remarkable? That includes a handful of swing states that Democrats are counting on if they’re going to have any hopes of retaking the Senate. States in play: Minnesota, New Hampshire, Michigan and Maine. Three of those have been held by Democrats, while Maine is under the control of Susan Collins with the GOP.

This gives new momentum to the Senate campaigns of Michele Tafoya (Minn.), Mike Rogers (Mich.), John Sununu (New Hampshire) and Collins. Will Republicans take all four of those states? Doubtful.

But with them threatening to do so, Democrats now must redirect campaign money to those states, rather than simply trying to grab Republican seats in Ohio, Texas and Alaska.  So odds have improved that the GOP will hold the Senate, and might even add two to three new seats. Updates on the House will take longer to become clear. Here’s more from Steve Turley.

Abuse Charges Arise In Maine

New allegations of sexual abuse are arising against Troy Jackson, the Democratic Senate candidate in Maine. Jackson is the replacement for Graham Platner, who had to resign over a mountain of similar charges raised against him. So it appears sexual monkey business is either a whale of a problem in Maine, or else it’s just bigger when Democrats are involved.

In the case of Troy Jackson, the charges involve a woman who was not only his girlfriend, but also a close relative. Here’s more from the Liberal Hivemind.

 

Kissing Cousins In Maine

The Democrats just had to get rid of their U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner in Maine after multiple women charged he had been a sexual predator and raped them.

Now, the man the Leftists chose to replace Platner on the ballot, Troy Jackson, has been found guilty of screwing around sexually with his own second cousin. Jackson, a logger from Allagash, is raising two children with his relative.

Let’s just say the Democrats know how to pick them. Here’s more from Byron Langley.

 

A Star Is Born

Maine hosted a televised debate among Democrats seeking to replace Graham Platner on the ballot this fall, running for the U.S. Senate seat now held by Susan Collins.

Birds Of Feather, Flock Together

We should not at all be surprised by Maine Democratic Socialist Graham Platner being stripped of his title as the party’s Senate hopeful. Platner was ousted over his abysmal track record as a man accused of raping and sexually assaulting multiple women.

It turns out Platner caught his break as Senate hopeful when Bernie Sanders pulled together a massive pool of financial support for Platner through Sanders’ Socialist backers. And who convinced Sanders to do so? None other than Democratic strategist Daniel Morath, a champagne socialist who graduated from Yale Law School.

Morath has something else in common with Platner. Morath earlier was booted from the campaign of U.S. Rep. Summer Lee, of Pennsylvania, after being accused of multiple sexual assault charges.

Who else has Morath been behind? Not only Nebraska’s Dan Osborn,  who calls himself an “independent,” but also current Michigan U.S. Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed.  Morath, the grandson of the founder of Toys R Us, owns his own Dark Forest consulting firm. Here’s more from Braden Langley.

A Spineless MS NOW Journalist

Watch as a leftist journalist from MS NOW, Molly Jong-Fast, stumbles over her words, trying to explain why and how Graham Platner got lifted as the Democrats’ U.S. Senate candidate in Maine. Talk about weaseling around with words! Here’s more from Memology101.

We Hardly Knew Ya

Democratic Dreams Fading Fast

Democrats are facing growing internal turmoil as former House Speaker Newt Gingrich argues the party is fracturing from within. He says the party is losing its identity and warns the political divide could either push moderate voters toward conservatives or create an opening for more progressive and socialist factions to gain greater influence.

Former Democrat fundraiser Lindy Li says donor confidence is collapsing after wealthy contributors allegedly discovered campaign money was being spent on luxury events, extravagant image-building, and lavish expenses instead of voter outreach and competitive races. She argues many longtime Democratic donors now feel betrayed and are refusing to write large checks because they no longer trust party leadership to spend their money responsibly.

Democrats also suffered another major political setback in Maine after Senate candidate Graham Platner suspended his campaign following a serious criminal allegation. The race had already attracted national attention, millions of dollars in campaign spending, and endorsements from prominent Democratic leaders. With the campaign now collapsing, party officials are scrambling to find a replacement candidate before filing deadlines. Here’s more from Stephen Gardner.

Biden Playbook: One More Time

Did the Democratic Party honchos plan back in May to get rid of Graham Platner? Did they withhold damaging evidence of his sexual crimes so they would have the fuel to force him out after he had won the Maine Democratic primary? Will they now turn around and install former Maine Gov. Janet Mills as their Senate hopeful — the woman Platner easily whipped?

Next News Network lays out the scenario and says it fits the Democratic playbook — the same playbook they used to install Kamala Harris as their 2024 Presidential hopeful, even though she hadn’t undergone any of the rigors of the primary process.

Is this a party that cares so little about its members? Are party officials like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries calling all the shots, with the backing of the leftist fake news? Here’s more from Gary Franchi.
