Well, that’s a paraphrase. But listen to some of the results that the NY Times survey gleaned:
“The poll shows that 49% of likely voters said they planned to vote for a Republican on Nov. 8 to represent them in Congress, compared with 45% who planned to vote for a Democrat.
The biggest shift came from women who identified as independent voters. In September, they favored Democrats by 14 points. Now, independent women backed Republicans by 18 points — a striking swing given the polarization of the American electorate and how intensely Democrats have focused on that group and on the threat Republicans pose to abortion rights.
The survey showed that the economy remained a far more potent political issue in 2022 than abortion.
“I’m shifting more towards Republican because I feel like they’re more geared towards business,” said Robin Ackerman, a 37-year-old Democrat and mortgage loan officer who lives in New Castle, Delaware, and is planning to vote Republican this fall.
Ackerman said she disagreed “1,000%” with the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and erase the national right to an abortion. “But that doesn’t really have a lot to do with my decision,” she said of her fall vote. “I’m more worried about other things.””
And other Democrats are admitting that economic problems trump partisan views.
““It’s all about cost,” said Gerard Lamoureux, a 51-year-old Democratic retiree in Newtown, Connecticut, who is planning to vote Republican this fall. “The price of gas and groceries are through the roof. And I want to eat healthy, but it’s cheaper for me to go to McDonald’s and get a little meal than it is to cook dinner.””
Apparently, the importance of abortion and gun control was exaggerated (as usual) by the Democrats and their friends in the media.
“While the share of voters focused on guns declined, those who identified abortion as the top issue remained flat, at 5%. There is a sizable gender split on the issue’s significance: 9% of women rated it as the top issue compared with just 1% of men.
In taking over the House in 2018 and winning the Senate and White House in 2020, the winning Democratic coalition during the Donald Trump presidency relied on a significant gender gap and on winning women by a wide margin. But the poll showed that Republicans had entirely erased what had been an 11-point edge for Democrats among women last month in 2022 congressional races to a statistical tie in October.”
So, as you can see the Times is reporting that even their most reliable useful idiots are ready to throw in the towel and vote for the other side in order to avoid starving and freezing to death.
Now, I’m not saying that I take any of this as guaranteeing a Republican landslide. Far from it. There are all kinds of things that can make the outcome worse. Fraud, Republican cowardice and stupidity and the unexpected. But what this article does do is frighten and depress the Democrat readers. They open up their copy of the paper of record and they see this article saying that women are more concerned with runaway inflation than they are about abortion on demand. They hear that Joe Biden is considered a failed president by more than half the country. And they hear that most probably the Democrats will be losing the Congress in January. The idea of their anguish makes me happy. These are the worst people in the world. These evil people are responsible for all the pain and suffering this country has been through over the last three years. For them to be afraid and unhappy is totally just. I only wish it could be worse. But for what it’s worth it’s welcome news.
As we’re getting closer to the actual election day it appears that even the most in the tank Democrat outlets are trying to prepare their readers for a nasty shock. So, we have to ask ourselves can the Democrat election fraud machine generate enough fake ballots to overcome the majority of voters who want to kick out the Democrats. Well, stay tuned. There are only three weeks left until the Day of Reckoning. Then I get to find out what’s what.
I do not get the NYTimes but this is not something I would expect to see from them.
It almost seems that the democrat voters are being discouraged to vote instead of republicans.
I think they are preparing their voters for a big surprise. They’ve been telling them that abortion would turn the tide against the Republicans. Now their own poll tells them that this is not so. This is the wake up call.
