And I do want to add ...

Polling is little more than a snapshot in time. A snapshot that may indicate the current opinion at the time the question was asked.

How a person answers a poll questioner as compared to how that person votes when faced with little more than their conscience in the polling booth is an unknown.

We have a chance here for a true reckoning. MAGA has raped and pillaged for two years. Let's put a stake through the heart of the nastiest, most destructive, and least rational political movement in American history.

Let MAGA cry into its beer (if they can still afford it) wondering how it could ever have confused a fat old man who smells of ---- with a god.
