You couldn't be more DEAD WRONG if you tried. There are literally THOUSANDS of Bernie-style progressives who can't stand Biden and are still 100% in on voting for him cuz they (CORRECTLY) perceive Trump as a monster and an existential nightmare. "Lesser of two evils" votes are a HUGE number in EVERY American election. Honestly, since you're an anti-choice fanatic, I think this disingenuous theory is just wishful thinking on your part.I don't get the point you're making. Biden has always been pro life, as he's a Catholic. He declared otherwise only recently, clearly for electoral reasons. See here www.axios.com/joe-biden-abortion-hyde-amendment-497be3ef-bc98-482b-9ed2-28cf10a4f94b.htmlSecondly, I'm not an American, so I'm not telling them whom to vote for. I'm always suspicious of foreigners inviting people to vote for a president or a party in another nation, it's usually for their own countries ' advantage. No, Biden has always been pro-choice. The Hyde Amendment simply states that federal funds will never be used for abortion - he supported that until recently.

Newsflash: A great number (some would argue a MAJORITY) of Catholics are Pro-Choice. There's polling to back it up. Secondly, are you so willfully ignorant to think the Dems (considering women is one of their strongest voting blocs) would nominate & elect a Pro-Life VP twice??? VP to arguably the most Pro-Choice President in American history?? You're a JOKE. Biden has ALWAYS been on the record as Pro-Choice. He's just not been staunchly so, and has tried to underplay it when trying to get bible belt votes.

Idk about protestants.

One couldn't be a Catholic and be a pedophile at the same time, and yet...

So, by how much are we expecting Biden to win the popular vote?
I'm thinking at least 5 to 6 million... Maybe even 10 million?

In an attempt to bring this thread back on topic (we can create a separate thread to discuss the doctrine of an institution that has been, throughout its history, one of the most corrupt in the entire world), copying this again. What numbers are we thinking?

Georgia now is in toss-up category leaning blue per the FiveThirtyEight model. This was inevitable with Biden's recent boost. His polling average is now 1.5 points ahead of Trump in the state. I'd be quite surprised if Biden ends up winning Georgia but this is the most competitive he's been in the state all year. He actually has a chance. 50/50 odds are nothing to sneeze at. Ohio is just as close. Will not be surprised to see both swing back to red in the model and ultimately go with Trump on election day but for now Biden's chances are supposedly just as good as Trump's if not very marginally better. Meanwhile Biden's been extending his leads in NC and FL, which weeks ago were both in toss-up territory.

Record turnout in NC so far (some are estimating that 10% of registered North Carolinians voted on the first day of early voting alone) - I voted yesterday and waited for over three hours. Obviously my experience is an anecdotal snapshot, but in the right-leaning suburban area where I live, the enthusiasm for Biden/Harris seems really high. Hoping for a blue wave!

Out of curiosity, why did you vote early? I thought the point of early voting was to *avoid* the lines, but I always hear about waiting in line for hours and it has always confused me.

I have had a lot of anxiety about this election cycle - I really just wanted to get it over with as soon as possible.

I'd be really surprised if Biden wins Georgia and Ohio, but I think he'll win the others.

FiveThirtyEight having daily weekday podcasts for the last two weeks of the election and I think I'm the only one who's going to watch every single one, and not just to look at Galen Druke yesterday's very speculative discussion on what a blue trifecta might look like:

Also this same group had Biden at +8 points just one week ago if you scroll down. Interesting.

Because they're outliers. Every other recent polls has had Biden's national lead anywhere from 8-14 points and his polling average has been fluctuating between 10 and 11.

re: energy policy. Biden kind of clarifies his approach with Dan Pfeiffer & Jon Lovett. Does ramble and slur his words a bit and one can't help bemoan how much sharper a different candidate might've been, but Biden's inoculated from that frustration in some important ways: 1) He does a great job at projecting that he cares even if he can be boring to listen to. He comes off like a good-natured granddad who, bless his heart, just won't shut up, but at least he's not an asshole. And the line about "the kids" caring about the environment... it's honestly charming. He's a return to normalcy. That's always been his appeal and that hasn't changed once throughout the campaign. 2) He has self-awareness. He KNOWS that this stuff is boring but he's also excited to get into the meat and potatoes details. I don't want to hear Biden talk about chicken manure for three minutes but you like that he cares about it and also that he's aware of his rambling tendency. He apologizes a couple times, laughs at himself once or twice. Basically a normal guy. 3) At least through wading through it (the details, not the manure ) you get a sense that he does know some of this stuff and has taken it in with interest. Trump hasn't been able to speak coherently about nitty-gritty policy details for more than 15 seconds ever. Biden is over-excited to get into it. He projects enthusiasm and positivity about the details even if he doesn't always come off clearly. At least you feel like he wants to understand it which itself is reassuring. Biden also flatters Obama very smoothly and quotes John Lewis at one point. Very smart. regarding the energy stuff, Biden does mention that supposedly he's gotten signed support from all the labor unions on his energy ideas. Fact-checking is in order but if it's true, that's a doozy, but at the same time not terribly surprising because Americans want sustainable energy. They do, goddamnit. And Biden is no Kerry/Gore liberal outsider and this isn't the early 2000s. Biden's made much of his working class PA roots seemingly pretty effectively. Of course we have to wait and see what the state polls say.

For obvious reasons I will not be posting a link to the video of hunter Biden getting a footjob. It’s out there, you can go find it. Dude’s got a big dick
