    New Gallup poll suggests Dems’ election results could mirror Obama’s 2008 victory

    Some Optimism going into Election Day. (for non-fans of Chump)

    I only hope, it's enough momentum to keep the Senate for the Dems and get the majority in the House.

    IMHO, I'd like a trouncing to dump Chump from any future politics, make the GOP fade and let a less radical more logical conservative party emerge...and let the Dems fix SCOTUS and the Filibuster.

    You would think that they could find a better candidate. Except the different factions on the right don't really like each other either. Poor whites, white racists, rich whites, religious, crypto-finance bros, sports fan men, anti-tax crowd, landlords, franchise owners, etc...

    It's actually an old mindset...the nobles had it long ago. And even now, they're trying to essentially re-establish the nobility. Almost 250 years after we kicked them to the curb.
    People who have $$$ want to keep their $$$ and don't want to mix with the rabble...and have significant influence, if not outright power.
    Power corrupts, the ultimate power corrupts ultimately.

    Has nothing to do with intelligence, it's about ego and status.
    Even if they're new rich.
