      But then MSM wouldnt be able to spin!

      Also, these headlines makes it seem like trump won the debate when clearly everyone single person in America lost.

      An individual poll might be but agreggate polls definitely can show a trend. The trend is not good for Biden. He took all the wind out of his sails last week. I’m in the anyone but trump camp but how can anyone in good faith argue with an undecided that Biden has another four years in him?

      Records are great but elections are about the future.

        Hopefully someone can stop worrying about Uncle Joe’s feelings and hold an intervention so it only dooms Biden.

          If Barack decides to save America, it can be done by midnight EST.

            He wasn’t particularly keen on Biden 2020, so I wonder how much influence he really has with him personally. He could rally the troops for an intervention though.

              By “troops”, you mean 60% of Americans?

                I don’t think they matter to Joe, I think Democratic megadonors and powerful elected officials are the people who could get through.

        Ironic. You’re the one taking these polls seriously, and on top of that spreading voter apathy. Seems like you’re coping just fine.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
