US PoliERA 2019 |OT5| She's got a plan for that, now sashay away

[Luminish]

I don't think it should be underestimated how much the early press influences how voters vote in later contests

Ie I don't think Trump would have won had he not won NH. The "loser" narrative would have started after losing both the first to states.

If Biden wins IA, NH, and SC the race is over regardless how many voters or what percentage he wins them by

Click to shrink...

Indeed. IA and NH are probably the single biggest reason early national primary polls are wrong so often.

The good news is Biden slightly underperformed iowa in 2008 and appears to be doing the same in 2020 polling. I think he'd be pretty screwed if he lost Iowa, seeing how much of his pitch is electability and inevitably.

If this BS to stroke Trumps ego doesn't change his cratering behavior and encourages more of it and also spooks the Dems who can't tell if it's fake or not to work even harder is it really a bad thing?

I mean, COME ON. Add another article to the impeachment pile. This is a sitting president stating that he would would not alert intelligence officials if a foreign entity approached him to help win an election, and would probably take the info.

You guys are thinking too specific. What killed Bush41's chances?

"We must raise taxes", that's it. Because then the conservative echo chamber would turn against him, and fuel the rage.
