Comments

"Harris is also leading among registered voters, with 47 percent of the vote to Trump's 41 percent.

In Marquette Law School's last poll in May, Trump was three points ahead of Biden among registered voters, securing 40 percent of the vote to the president's 37 percent.

Harris is also leading her opponent in a head-to-head matchup with the support of 52 percent of registered voters, while Trump is the choice for 48 percent.

Among likely voters, Harris received 53 percent and Trump 47 percent. The results include voters who initially did not choose Harris or Trump but who were then asked whom they would vote for if they had to choose."

.

She's trending up in all categories of voters.

Must be Dem polling fraud, having illegal immigrants respond to surveys.

Hillary Clinton has a 91% chance to win

www.nytimes.com

Stop this absurd nonsense.

Polls are meaningless.

Kamala isn't as popular as Hillary was.

This election is Trump's to lose.

Stellar rebuttal, no wonder you're feared and admired for your intellectual prowess.

Wanna tell the class why Hillary lost when she had a 91% chance at winning?

I'll wait for your thought provoking response.

Someone needs to get these happy fools out of the clouds and back on the ground.

They've been celebrating Harris's nomination for a month straight.

She's not just going to win because democrats want her to.

There's a lot of work that needs to be done, arguably more than when Biden was still the presidential nominee.

Yeah, but what is LYD going to do besides troll thread to thread and attack people? Work? Who? what work?

You think people like that actually go out into the world and improve it? Actually help promote and push a progressive agenda that benefits everyone?

LYD probably doesn't even ------ vote

Patience Grasshopper.

Next up is the DNC. Which is "a lot of work" and should also be another shot in the arm for democrats. (I may be dating myself but "a shot in the arm" used to considered be a good thing ... A stimulus or booster, something vitalizing or encouraging ...)

" Kamala isn't as popular as Hillary was. "

I think you mean UNpopular.

The folks who were taught to hate HRC for 20 years hated her.

Not enough time or exposure for that to happen to Harris. Hence all the non-brainwashed flocking to her.

#11 | Posted by Danforth at 2024-08-08 05:28 PM

Probably not too much.

His posts are generally easy to move past.

I was mostly trying to see if our two dimensional poster was able to muster anything more than angry insults.

You're right, they did have 20+ years, 2016 was a very personalized attack on Hillary Clinton.

But, they've been bashing women and minorities for far longer. They've already started to direct all that racism and misogyny at Harris.

Been posting here for nearly 20 years and there have been some usernames that have remained the same, after that much time spent discussing politics and trading insults with them, there has been somewhat of a familiarity formed. An acquaintanceship to speak. I wouldn't consider it a relationship.


Sorry that frightens you.

Clown, the barnstorming trip IS WORK you dope. She's out there speaking to tens of thousands of enthusiastic and motivated voters while Dotard has been hiding in his basement spending all his time posting on his little visited social media site. And JV Vance is speaking to tens of people as he stalks VPOTUS around the country. Dems have signed up HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of VOLUNTEERS to do MORE WORK. The work is getting done.

This joy is Dems feeling relief because Dotard is no longer inevitable and people are relieved that Harris now gives Dems a chance and appear to be pulling ahead. That doesnt mean they stop the rallies and the calls and the postcards and the door knocking, that is ALL going on.

Dems have spent the last six years building a ground game, Dotard has NO ground game. His ground game used to be his Klan ralllies and now he appears incapable of that kind of schedule any longer. Dotard now agreeing to the ABC debate and suggesting an NBC debate as well shows just how bad things are going for MAGA, he is running scared, his internal polling is showing exactly what the public polls show! Don't forget The diaper sharter is the most disliked POTUS candidate in my memory. His crazy liefest press conference today was another example of his desperation.

As a very often reader, however seldom poster.. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the consistency of LYD's posts. It's the little things in life that provide a little extra sunshine to my often cloudy day. Just knowing as I drink my morning coffee and check in on the retort, I can count on by the third or 4th post.. "Republicans are scum".. or "---- ---, dumb --" or even "---- ---, ----"

I say here's to you LYD! Keep up the good work!

These polls don't take into account the huge army of Maga election officials in swing states that will ALL lead a coordinated attack on democracy to refuse to certify election results leading the winner to be annointed by the Maga House and Maga Scotus.

#24 | Posted by AlternateFacts at 2024-08-10 12:37 PM

It would probably help if a few of the fake electors got convicted and sentenced before the election.

Let the cheaters know what's waiting for them.

#25 | Posted by Danforth at 2024-08-10 12:53 PM

Don't fool yourselves. Don't count your chickens before they are hatched. Dems are behind. Maga actively avoid participating in all these polls so they are always undercounted and underestimated. The polls were wrong in 2016 and they are wrong now. Over confident and smug Hillary gleaning from the polls thought she had it in the bag until her rude awakening.

#26 | Posted by AlternateFacts at 2024-08-10 12:55 PM

Trump will pardon all Maga election officials who commit felonies to usher him into power. These loyal ones will be given the power to oversee ALL elections in the newly fascist country so we won't ever need to vote again.

In 2016, Clinton took the "blue wall" for granted.

In 2024, Harris' campaign is taking nothing for granted.

#29 | Posted by AMERICANUNITY at 2024-08-10 01:17 PM

Comparisons with HRC are misguided. Among Democrats there has almost never been a nominee with as many perceived negatives as HRC. She was was never likable nor trusted among millions of Dems. In contrast, relatively few Dems have any serious qualms with Harris.

NEW:

Harris Leads Trump in Three Key States, Times/Siena Polls Find

New surveys of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania taken this week (Aug 5-8 by NYT/Siena) offer the latest indication of a dramatic reversal in standing for the Democratic Party since President Biden abandoned his re-election bid.

Ms. Harris is ahead of Mr. Trump by four percentage points in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan, 50 percent to 46 percent among likely voters in each state. The surveys were conducted from Aug. 5 to 9.

The polls, some of the first high-quality surveys in those states since Mr. Biden announced he would no longer run for re-election, come after nearly a year of surveys that showed either a tied contest or a slight lead for Mr. Trump over Mr. Biden.

#31 | Posted by AMERICANUNITY at 2024-08-10 02:33 PM

+4 in all three ...

"The polls, some of the first high-quality surveys in those states since Mr. Biden announced he would no longer run for re-election, come after nearly a year of surveys that showed either a tied contest or a slight lead for Mr. Trump over Mr. Biden."

#32 | Posted by AMERICANUNITY at 2024-08-10 02:34 PM

The only reason for her move up is because the Democrat owned media gives her a 200% pass for refusing to answer any questions and a media that also covers for her every failure including the complete failure of Biden. We wonder why Democrat incompetent candidates oddly get elected and it is because Democrats are corrupt and protected. Tulsi Gabbard was even made a threat by the leftist communist trash. We need to find out who is behind this.

Tonight's rally in Las Vegas was originally scheduled for a 5000 seat venue.

Demand was so high they had to move it to a 20,000 seat venue, which is packed to the rafters.

What doomed HRC presidential run? Her decision to stay with Bill after Lewinski scandal. That was just not presidential. America does not want a forgiving abused spouse to be President.

#36 | Posted by danni at 2024-08-11 10:05 AM

What does America want from Harris now? Evisceration! Total destruction of the real evil in Donald Trump and the actual revelation of who he is! She needs to tear off his "Christian" mask and let everyone see the demon behind it.
If she can unmask him she wins. If she can't America loses!

According to chain emails I've received since the internet came to the public, my evangelical "Christian" cousin stated every candidate since Bill Clinton was the Antichrist. She's voted twice for that amoral POS. "Why," I asked. "Because I'm a Republican" was her reply. "Oh, so you've dropped the moral values test you've claimed to hold so dear." *crickets*

After Trump was shot, I sent her this with a message that simply said, "HERE'S your Antichrist!":

Revelations 13:3 - One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.

no bodily autonomy

Equating having to get a vaccine to work with the elderly with being forced to deliver a rapist's child is the depth of depravity and stupidity.

No one has ever forced anyone to get a vaccine. It's still a choice, ignorant and self-centered as that is. But we don't have to suffer from your choice.

There is a canyon of difference between banning abortion and mandating vaccines in certain professions and public education. The latter has worked just fine until the science illiterates started screaming about it.
