romad1 Posted Sunday at 02:24 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:24 PM Tim Miller and Sarah Longwell really thought this was the thing too Quote Kyle Garner @KyleGarnerMO My biggest takeaway from the Iowa poll: women 65+, the ones who lived in America before Roe, before women could even have their own bank accounts, know exactly what Trump and Republicans are promising. They know the stakes and they're going 2:1 for Harris. https://x.com/KyleGarnerMO/status/1852860867668480188 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have complained it was taking awhile to receive their ballots and taking awhile to mark it as received. She was hesitant to add drop boxes, and the city only has one early voting site in the non black area of the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That, and all of the cases of his campaign not paying for rally venues. How on earth has that mostly fallen under the radar? His stiffing people is the rule, not the exception.

LaceyLou Posted Sunday at 03:31 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:31 PM 3 minutes ago, CMRivdogs said: Iowa has also had a lot of trouble attracting doctors in general, but especially OBGYNs. This isn't just because of the abortion ban, of course, but it certainly doesn't help. This is one issue which really needs to be addressed, and soon-hospitals are closing, especially in rural areas but also in poorer urban neighborhoods. Where I grew up the nearest hospital was 30-45 minutes away, and if that closed, the next nearest one was even farther away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we keep hearing from pundits about polls saying people feel they are worse off now than 4 years, it's automatically assumed it's economical, but I'm betting a lot are saying that because of abortion.

romad1 Posted Sunday at 03:41 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:41 PM currently in Florida where you won't see much besides commercials against the abortion ban. The only other ad i saw was an anti-Marijuana legalization ad which implied that it would be bad for the amusement parks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganCardinal Posted Sunday at 03:50 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:50 PM I've made several remarks about how she is running a flawless campaign. This continues that trajectory. She doesn't do much here, but it's endearing, nice, and feels real. In a comparison to Trump, people will just like that she's smiling. It's a winning appearance.

Another benefit is the narrative will switch to “democrat” run states being incompetent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMRivdogs Posted Sunday at 04:00 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:00 PM https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2024-11-03/republicans-ignore-trump-on-the-economy Opinion Matthew Yglesias, Columnist Quote In the closing days of the presidential campaign, Donald Trump’s allies suddenly have a new message: The US needs sharp, immediate and ill-defined spending cuts. Elon Musk, who’s been talking about immigration for more than a year, now says he’s going to oversee $2 trillion in reductions. That’s a third of the federal budget, so you’d think there might be some kind of plan for what this involves, but all Musk would say last week is that “temporary hardship” will be involved. What kind of hardship? Well, House Speaker Michael Johnson let it be known last week that “health care reform’s going to be a big part of the agenda”if Trump wins, including a “very aggressive” attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Hedge fund billionaire John Paulson, a Trump supporter, also weighed in last week about the need for steep cuts. Quote All of this amounts to an implicit admission that Trump’s policy agenda is an unworkable fraud, and that virtually everything he and his team have said or done over the course of the campaign has been about avoiding discussion of the concrete stakes at issue.
