Widespread Panic: Democrats turn their attention to the economy and crime
It’s a week and a day until midterm elections, millions of early votes have already been cast, and the Democrats and the media (pardon my redundancy) are looking at polls and early turnout and realizing to their horror that they bet on the wrong horse. Still, do NOT let polls lull you into not voting. This is a “crawl over broken glass in shorts if you have to” election.
“Progressive” Democrats actually thought that in a time of record high inflation and gas prices, open borders and skyrocketing crime, what voters would be most concerned about was a three-hour riot from nearly two years ago, the right to abort their children right up until birth, and the claim that democracy will die if Americans are allowed to vote for anyone other than them.
Because that’s the stuff they actually believe is important, they thought everyone else believed it, too, except a handful of “MAGA extremists.” This is what living in a bubble and never talking to anyone outside it does to your brain.
Why, it’s almost as if they care more about illegal immigrants than they do about Americans. And Americans, not being morons, have noticed.
So now, with the election barreling toward them like a freight train with no baby formula on it, panicky Democrats are trying a last minute pivot to crime and the economy. They’re insisting that only they can keep us safe from the violent criminals and economic disasters that they deliberately unleashed on us. I don’t think it will work on most voters, again because of that “not being morons” thing.
But you know they’re desperate because some of them are actually resorting to their old stand-by tactic of trying to scare seniors by claiming that Republicans want to slash or abolish Social Security. Will that still work in an era when many seniors have 401K’s, or did until Biden came along?
Social Security is set to get one of the biggest cost of living increases in history next year, ironically thanks to all the Bidenflation. The biggest danger to Social Security is liberals spending all of the money the government needs to fund it.
For the record: I have been hearing Democrats warn that Republicans were going to take away grandma’s Social Security ever since I was a kid. I’m now eligible for Social Security myself, and they’re still saying it! Yet in all those years, payments have only increased. How many times do they think they can cry wolf before voters finally tune them out like a malfunctioning car alarm that just won’t shut off?
Democrats and the media reset as Abrams and Warnock struggle
The Democrats appear to have written off Stacey Abrams’ chances of getting elected Georgia’s Governor (maybe I should say, “again.”) Axios is already trying to paint her loss as part of a brilliant “long game” plan to become a top national political influencer.
I can see that she’s made losing elections and whining about it into a very lucrative business model, but why would anyone who hopes to win office want to be influenced by her? She’s getting worse at it with every attempt. The Axios spin sounds like people on YouTube videos who take big face plants then jump up and say, “I meant to do that.”
Meanwhile, they’re so desperate to hang on to Raphael Warnock’s Senate seat that they brought in Barack Obama to do what he does best: condescendingly mock people who disagree with him. This time, he used the baffling analogy that if you were getting onto a plane, you wouldn’t want Herschel Walker piloting it because he has no experience.
No, but I also wouldn’t want to be on a plane piloted by Warnock or Obama or anyone else in the Senate either. The “no experience” argument is a head-scratcher, since Warnock had no experience in the Senate and still has less than two years’ worth, all of it spent being a rubber stamp for Biden and Chuck Schumer. Obama himself became President with no executive, management, military, private sector or foreign policy experience, and ran just two years into his first term as a junior Senator (maybe he should’ve said, “You don’t want someone with no experience; just look at my presidency!”)
On the other hand, Joe Biden was sold to us as the most experienced, and hence most qualified, presidential candidate ever. When he first started warming a chair in the Senate in 1973, the Vietnam War was still going on and George Lucas was about to start writing a movie treatment called “The Star Wars.” All those decades of “experience,” and he’s been an utter disaster.
Of course, all that those years of experience got him was a reputation for being wrong on every foreign policy issue since 1973. But since becoming President, he has managed to expand that to domestic issues, as well.
The Founders intended us to have a Congress of citizen legislators who were not insulated from the effects of their government actions. Has having an overpaid class of lifetime career, elitist politicians improved governance? I’d say it’s the best argument for term limits.
Herschel Walker had his own response to this attack, and frankly, I think it’s a lot better than the career politician Obama’s glib but illogical oratory.
