Ignore the fucking polls. If you want Trump to lose in November, believe that Biden is down 20 points. And work your ass off accordingly.

There's only one poll that matters, and that's in November.

Sorry Joe.

Keep up the good work "now" friend....

5. Carville: We have to BURY Trumpism!!!

GOTV!!!! A Squeaker 270-268 will not cut it.

6. I fucking hate having to agree with Walsh. nt

7. The strangest of bedfellows.

Then again, so is Conway, Wilson, Kristol, on and on and on...

[TeamPooka]

8. I hate agreeing with that jerk but the jerk is right.

[calimary]

9. He's right.

Eyes on the prize, guys.

10. Republicans know how to campaign, they just don't know how to govern.

That's why I'll listen to chastened Republicans like this guy on campaign strategy suggestions, and I welcome the brilliant Biden ads put out by never Trumpers like the Lincoln Project.

[BigOleDummy]

11. Exactly

Was just thinking last night the the polls look so good that it will be tempting to "skate". What if they ARE being manipulated too? Man, that makes me sound like a paranoid kook doesn't it? But yes, that thought has entered my mind.

12. This is my broken record post.

We can't let up until the GOP is totally defeated. Any race that is even close will be one they may try to steal. We can't let that happen.

[Wounded Bear]

13. He's not wrong...nt

[DFW]

14. THE Joe Walsh? Tammy Duckworth's Republican nemisis? What a turnabout!

He's right, of course, but usually when calling him right, we tend to think of "far right."

But he's not wrong here, so as long as this is the line he is spouting, spout away.

[lagomorph777]

28. Well, not the Eagles' Joe Walsh, but THE OTHER Joe Walsh.

[DFW]

30. Yeah, I already figured this was not coming from a former member of the James Gang. n/t

[Lucinda]

15. Yep!

17. Fuck the polls. Assume Nothing.

This is the most important election of our lifetime

18. Abso-fucking-lutely!!!!

[GoCubsGo]

19. I hate agreeing with him, but he's right.

Take nothing for granted, and don't forget the downticket candidates.

[lagomorph777]

29. Especially the Senate. We need all 3 branches to clean up this mess.

[liskddksil]

21. Yep, there was a lot of "don't worry we got this"

posts here in 2016, and a general attitude of treating criticisms of the campaign's tactics as "concern trolls" when it was clear there were glaring red flags staring us in the face as early as that Spring. I sadly saw a similar attitude here with supporters of certain candidates in this past Primary which was obviously unjustified as well.

[Ms. Toad]

22. There's a lot already going on here for the November election.

I get blasted pretty much universally when I point out the dangers of taking a November win for granted.

[BrightKnight]

24. The last time we heard "don't worry we got this"... - nt

[Demovictory9]

26. yep

[Awsi Dooger]

32. I have no idea how anyone can assume anything

Incumbents receive extraordinary benefit of a doubt. The states we need to win are not particularly favorable from a demographic standpoint.

It is going to be very close. I always prefer logic above polls, especially this far out.

23. K&R nt

25. Never in my life would I think I'd be saying, "Listen to Joe Walsh! He knows what he's saying!"

But here we are.

We live in interesting times indeed.

[grantcart]

33. Two years ago I was driving in the middle of the desert and the only radio

station had Walsh on.

He was 100% blasting Trump and he lost most of his audience.


He was relentless.


He also apologized about what he said about Obama.


I respect the new Joe Walsh, just can't quite believe it.

[NewJeffCT]

27. No, work like you're 2 points down

if people think they're 20 points down, at least some would give up

[live love laugh]

31. Hell yes! What polls? nt
