Ah, didn't watch it. It would make sense for him to be campaigning for himself in Kansas, but, yeah, campaigning for Oz in KS would be weird...

At least this one realized his mess-up moment and owned up to it. I would have been more convinced if he had yelled out, Rock Chalk, Jayhawk (a phrase I know all too well, having two parents and two aunts who went to KU). Yeah, yeah, he would have pissed off the KSU part of the state, and is probably confused himself because he went to KSU for his undergrad and KU for med school.

That's so weird. I'm so used to Pittsburgh PA being spelled wrong, with the "h" left off.

Of course. People with healthy brains don't like ice cream. That's why there are almost no places in America where you can get ice cream. ;)

They are deflecting away from Donnie 2 scoops. People laughed at Donnie for arranging that he gets 2 scoops of icecream when everyone else gets one, so they have to say Biden likes icecream and that's weird and demented.

You will find that pretty much everything they say about Biden is a revenge accusation on what people laughed at Tinyhands about.

:roll: Also, too, I heard on Fox News yesterday that over 50% of Hispanics in Florida support DeSantis flying refugees (although they said immigrants) from Texas to various Democratic strongholds. Which I find hard to believe, but who knows? Perhaps it falls under the three types of lies.

Harold Ford Jr. reminds Watters that Black people also have a range in skin tone. This is cringe worthy.

In Florida, "Hispanics" is overly broad. Let's see the number when they remove the Cuban-Americans from said polling.

In this cycle, particularly, I don't trust the polls.

No kidding! Just heard one on rwnj radio that had Hobbs down double digits to Kari Lake. I'm worried about Hobbs getting shellacked, but I can't imagine it will be that bad. Hopefully I don't have to eat these words, for Arizona's sake.

They tend to have their own "polls" or "Unskew the numbers" to get their audience excited, then they forget they were completly wrong after the election.

To me, not trusting the polls is the new normal. I cannot see any way that pollsters can fix the structural problems with their craft.
