lol she gunning for the dirtbag left ain't shePulling for Marianne. DOUBLE DIGITS!
Soaring like the Hindenburg she is!
You're right, there isn't much direct evidence as of now linking to Biden. I guess my argument was simply that even if there were huge swings from Arab voters against Biden, he still has a path to win Michigan statewide and can compensate for that potential voter loss. I was also thinking about the swing from 2020 to the result in the Abortion referendum in 2022 in Michigan, how places that swung heavily against Abortion, also had a big swing away from Dems when comparing 2018 and 2022.There is no definitive evidence that Biden is losing support in one geographic area compared to any other and I find it amusing how in two national polls in the last two days Whitmer is doing WORSE versus Trump than Biden.
And Whitmer won Michigan by 11% as we all remember.
Also you alluded to with Dearborn. Well it's not an accident that the main people behind the Abandon Biden "group" who've had a few articles written about their dumb press conferences/events over the last couple months were discovered to have been working with Michael Flynn and other Trump people prior to 10/07. Due to LGBT issues basically.
I honestly think the bulk of her support either comes from hippies or liberals who think she's nice. The Twitter/dirtbag left doesn't really have a lot of pull lol

I kid you not there is a house in my neighborhood that has a Marianne quote right on the house next to some Bible quotes lol. They also have a gay/trans pride flag on their front lawn. They seem like real true blue, inoffensive, kind-hearted hippies. And you know what? I get that weird positive vibe from Marianne. I wouldn't vote for her but I can't really hate her either lol. Definitely prefer her over Dean Philips that's for sure. Dean just seem too crazy for me.Yep she strikes me as the candidate for dedicated homeopaths and goobers that believe crystals are healing or some shit.

Marianne Williamson told AIDS patients that sickness is 'an illusion'
Democratic Presidential candidate and spiritualist self-help guru Marianne Williamson is under scrutiny for her beliefs about HIV/AIDS.www.thepinknews.com
She's a piece of shit.
So, since a big deal was made about polling trends and averages recently:

Here's one from the GOP-leaning RCP.
And this margin includes Florida too!
I could be wrong, but I think this is...the average from the polls of the 2020 election?
They don't reference exactly where they got their numbers, so it's hard to tell.
MIAMI (AP) — The United States freed a close ally of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in exchange for the release of 10 Americans imprisoned in the South American country and the return of a fugitive defense contractor known as "Fat Leonard" who is at the center of a massive Pentagon bribery scandal, the Biden administration announced Wednesday.

I don't understand how the party of rich freaks is running out of money?
Is this why they keep running rich carpetbaggers? Like I get they still have war chest to rely on, so they're not totally broke, but still.
I'm surprised they care enough to track the confidence of the poor.
Colbert just covered this Thomas story last night.Another day another story on Clarence Thomas' corruption.

"We have started a progressive movement here in Pennsylvania. It's not going away. This isn't over. This is not how our story ends." — John Fetterman on April 26, 2016, after finishing third in a Democratic U.S. Senate primary.
This is how that story ended last week, more than seven years later. Now having achieved his dream of election to the U.S. Senate, and after becoming a leading national figure in the Democratic Party, Fetterman flatly declared in an NBC News interview: "I am not a progressive."
"It's a reasonable conversation — until somebody can say there's an explanation on what we can do when 270,000 people are being encountered on the border, not including the ones, of course, that we don't know about," he said.
That conflict has seen the first-term Democrat not only join most people in condemning the Oct. 7 terrorist attack by Hamas but also become one of Israel's most zealous defenders, refusing to discuss Palestinian civilian casualties and brushing off hundreds of calls to his office and noisy protests begging him to call for a cease-fire. In fact, he has seemed to mock protesters, waving an Israeli flag at one gathering.
I heard from a lot of Fetterman 2022 backers who feel, in the words of one, "duped," and who have no interest in donating or volunteering for him ever again

What the hell happened to John Fetterman?
He has been consistent about Israel and I do think some people should have tempered their expectations with Fetterman before he took office. He's been to the left on some domestic issues (marijuana) and more to the right on others (fracking). Foreign policy for Fetterman is your bog-standard centrist stuff. I do think his campaign should have been more open about who he is politically instead of framing him as the next progressive firebrand.He's basically the same guy he was before 2022. He was always a vocal supporter of Israel.
This is another situation like with the MA Senate primary when tons of leftists pinned their hopes and prayers onto Ed Markey, holding him up as some progressive beacon, because his campaign was crafty enough to present himself as the political outsider against a Kennedy kid. Which was bizarre to watch unfold due to Markey being as establishment as establishment gets having been in the senate forever. But Joe Kennedy was an easy target who sucked so it was pretty funny all around.
Anyway Fetterman is a Senator representing the state of Pennsylvania. The whole state. It's really troubling to me how that is so often brushed aside to make room for the assumption that he ought to solely represent the younger leftist contingent of fans that were ultimately not too large a part of his base of electoral support in the first place.
It's unfortunate we don't have the House because I guarantee you that if we could actually pass legislation right now he would be a rock solid vote with the rest of the Dem caucus for just about anything. The comparisons to Manchin and Sinema are just utterly absurd for various reasons I could rant about.
Man, if I had mod powers I would ban you for such outlandish ideas!Also, this is crazy I know, but people can have super leftist opinions on one thing and not on everything.
Unfortuantely, progressives just aren't attractive to the general voting public. If progressives want to actually increase their representation within state and federal governments, they have to pick up new voters and get out the youth vote to vote for their candidates. Otherwise they're trying to convince older, more apathetic liberals who have had their progressivism beaten out of them and side with whatever Democrat is on the ticket in order to ensure it ain't a GOPer.
