The suburb to the north of me is just the opposite, and may be one of the reasons I think the demographic changes in the article are relevant.
I did enjoy your criticism. Of course, liberals don't love their children or their mamas.   |
I was just thinking that polls and pundit predictions seem to be much less accurate this year than I have seen in the past...
This would seem to indicate to me that what we think we may know about the electorate, remains more a work in progress this year, than it has been in years past.
8 years of extremely "polarizing" leadership under GW, his resulting extremely low approval ratings, the normal political pendulum swing (each of these factors causing complete disarray in the Republican party ranks) and the 30-40 year pendulum "millennial makeover" talked about recently on the NewsHour
here, seems to me to be driving a good deal of confusion into the pundit's and think tank's analysis resulting in a breakdown in their traditional abilities to predict outcomes as accurately as they had in the past...perhaps not.......
...and we do love our children and our mama's despite what they say....
