From Joy to panic
Link to quote: Harris' 'word salad' answer on Israel alliance confounds social media users: 'Someone please interpret' (msn.com)
This past week Kamala Harris has been participating in a flurry of interviews with her friends in left wing media. Many have been speculating that her internal polls must be atrocious for her campaign to take such a risky step. Yesterday we got a bit of a confirmation, and it didn't come from some "right-winger," it came from none other than Mark Halperin.
Alas, the "Joy" is gone, and panic has now set in at the Harris campaign. Polls released yesterday show Harris losing the key swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin. One pollster even wondered out loud how so much polling could have been constructed to show anything otherwise. After this election maybe we will hold pollsters accountable who used their polls to influence voters rather than simply trying to get a sense of where the voters were. One poll even shows her down by 2 points in the all-important state of PA. She is massively underperforming Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Joe Biden in 2020.
Had the democrats been able to nominate a much more moderate candidate, one with a little charisma or a bit of general knowledge, things may have been different, but they are trapped with Kamala Harris with less than a month to go before the election. The democrat party has moved so far left that promoting moderate candidates has become impossible. Instead, the democrats have had to rely on a thoroughly dishonest media, lawfare, lies and a big bag of dirty tricks.
In the news:
Hurricane Milton is tearing across Florida. It has flooded the state from coast to coast and knocked out power for more than three million homes and businesses. It spewed tornadoes that killed people far from the storm’s eye, destroyed homes and shredded the roof of the Tampa Bay Rays’ stadium. It is expected to exit to the Atlantic Ocean soon.
Hezbollah militants have fought many ground battles recently with Israeli forces. Biden and Benjamin Netanyahu spoke over the phone concerning Israeli plans to hit Iran.
New York will close a tent shelter that houses thousands of migrants on Randall’s Island.
An explosion of particles from a solar storm is expected to reach Earth today. It could produce Northern Lights in much of the U.S. and may disrupt power grids.
Jon Tester, a vulnerable Senate Democrat, trails his Republican challenger in Montana. Democratic Senate candidates in Florida and Texas are also behind according to the latest New York Times/Siena College Poll.

Good morning.
In Orlando. Mauricio Lima for The New York Times
Milton was deadly even before it made landfall. Tornadoes spun out of its edges. At least 116 tornado warnings were issued across the state, Gov. Ron DeSantis said. Tornadoes killed people in Fort Pierce, on the east coast. Search and rescue efforts are underway there now.
KU instructor who threatened violence against students who vote for Trump is on administrative leave, according to KU.
"She is massively underperforming Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Joe Biden in 2020."
This is all we need to know. It's over. She's done for.
Cooked through & through.
The American people were not stupid.
Well some think Biden is doing a good job and Kamala is fit to be president so..................................
Well, as Walz said recently "I can be a Knucklehead!"
so can everyone now and then - at least he admits it
Its good someone is telling us about this event otherwise no one would have known. This Newstalkers exclusive column is such an informative benefit to everyone.
It is good that a front-page story goes on the front page over the propaganda we've been seeing here via Susan Rice trying to save Kamala Harris etc.
Do you actually believe anyone depends on your column to learn there was a hurricane in Florida last night?
Let's not make it personal. Ok?
As we get closer to the election and the poll numbers get more accurate the desperation and anger is only going to get worse.
They've got Susan Rice (an Obama surrogate) out there with another Russia hoax, Biden calling every criticism of the FEMA response misinformation and Jack Smith loading up on more smears all because Kamala is likely to lose in 3 weeks. God only knows what else they are likely to do before Nov 5th.
“the desperation and anger is only going to get worse.”
No kidding. Just look at some of the comments on this article getting pissy about calling the democratic party the democrat party. lol, the desperation and anger is funny as hell.
Why would anyone read something they consistently say is a waste of time other than to troll?
The RA posted a story about Milton just yesterday. Why didn't you say the same to her?
The numbering system on these comments seems to be off a tad.
It is strange.
The were able to nominate a far better candidate. But they failed to do so. Instead they have Harris and have to work with the continued dumpster fire they created.
I guess Marc Elias & Jack Smith & Susan Rice will all have to work overtime as Kamala sinks into the mud.
The partisan hack DAs and the so called "Special Prosecutor" have a lot to work through.
As Judge Cannon pointed out when she trashed Democrat lawfare, Jack Smith has his own issues that need to be worked out before he can go any further with his "cases".
As the appeals hearings on Trumps "fraud" case continues it becomes more and more obvious that Trump was targeted by Democrats lackies and that conviction stands a very good chance of being tossed.
Yes, he was illegally appointed. They also shopped to get the Obama judge.

After the election we will see Courts of appeal restore American law.
Depending on how the election goes we will see 1 of 2 things.
Trump wins - restoration of American law. But that won't be without the increased whining of the left wing fools who have been crying since 2016.
Harris wins - continued targeting of political opponents as the Democrats continue toward the dictatorship everybody but the left see happening.
If this column believes Mark Halperin is "left wing" it is more delusional than anyone previously imagined.
Well, everyone who says something the radical left doesn't want to hear has to be right wing. /s
Judging by your column you obviously know very little about Mark Halperin.
Perhaps you would like to tell us all about him?
Do us one favor: TELL US WHETHER HIS STATEMENT MADE SENSE.
I thought they were "racist", "fascist" and a few other more "ists".
That is the typical response from the "intelligent" lefties.
Coming from a disgraced former ABC & MSNBC journalist who was suspended for calling Obama "kind of a dick" on the air, now a commentor on NewsMax yes.
Yes, he's a trump lackey probably pushing propaganda for the boss.
Where do you live, North Korea?
Really no more delusional than those who think Harris is a good or capable candidate.
What is wrong with people who refuse to say "Democratic Party", which is the correct name . Is saying "Democrat Party " code for really saying " I'm trying to be an asshole" ?
It is because that party is UNDEMOCRATIC.
The name is the "Democratic Party".
This is how stupid the right wing is - there is nothing offensive about the word democrat , which literally means a supporter of democracy.
That is the point John, it is a misnomer.
Did you just call all right wingers stupid?
[✘]
Those with authoritarian tendencies simply can't be called democratic.
You have Kamala as your candidate and your worried about how people address the democrat party? maybe they call it the democrat party because in the last 10 years there is nothing democratic about the worthless fucks who run the party.
And who occupies the party. Democrats so..........it stands to reason it is the party of democrats therefore, by proxy, the democrat party.................
And maybe MAGA's intelligent quotient is more underwater than the streets of Ft Meyers Fla.
Why is it that you can call all Trump supporters stupid, and we can't say the same about democrat supporters?
You can say whatever you want. If I started saying "the Repubass Party" everytime I referred to them you'd think it pretty stupid , wouldnt you?
what fucking nonsense.
If they were Bass fishermen it might make sense,
Well that may be, what's a MAGA? i don't see trump supporters marching in the streets and on college campus's supporting terrorists. that would be the members of the HAMAS wing of the democrat party.
Actually, I can't and that's the point.
Btw do you have any thoughts on the actual article concerning the inner polling of the Harris campaign or the most recent polling in general?
Does sound like something a member around these parts would call it..................besides, democrat is part of democratic. Repubsass has no similar affiliation. Fail.
It is the party of Democrats, hence Democrat party. The party members do not self identify as Democratics; they self identify as Democrats. The party of Democrats would be the Democrat Party.
The party of self identified Republicans would be the Republican Party. So, it follows that the party of self identified Democrats would be the Democrat Party.
Since Democrats are so hung up on identity, especially self identity, it is rather surprising that Democrats allow the elites within the party to change their identity.
No one gives a shit about what you think "follows". The political party has an official name. It is "Democratic Party". Any variance from that name is not an effort to be accurate about self-identification, it is an effort to be intentionally insulting.
No, John, I think Nerm nailed it!
Sort of like the overuse of MAGA that no one on the left seems to have an issue with.
Never.
No, it's not insulting, you're just taking it that way.
There are those that see it as a different indication of the person's character and mentality.
looks like trump has the convicted felon and pathetic coward votes locked in ...
Gee, 60 minutes didn't mention the concern they would slice and dice the interview to put him in a negative light like they sliced and diced Kamala answers to make her sound coherent. Shocking
They are willing to destroy their own credibility when it comes to the possibility of Trump winning the election.
That must have been one hell of team to attempt to do that.
Where is Karine Jean-Pierre?
Peter Doocy has one more question!
They all ran for the hills!
The Labor Department on Thursday said the consumer price index (CPI) – a broad measure of how much everyday goods like gasoline, groceries and rent cost – rose 0.2% in September from the prior month and was up 2.4% from a year ago.
Economists predicted that inflation would slow to 2.3% on an annual basis with it rising 0.1% from last month, according to estimates by economists surveyed by LSEG.
So-called core prices, which exclude more volatile measurements of gasoline and food to better assess price growth trends, were up 0.3% on a monthly basis and 3.3% compared to a year ago – slightly higher than economists' expectations of 0.2% and 3.2%, respectively.

VP Harris struggles through Hurricane Milton speech | Fox News
Oh my god this is too funny. A President who looks for people who aren't there and a VP / Candidate who talks to people who aren't there.
I have to say, the new strategy they launched this week has come back to bite them.
And did it ever. Same rambling and word salads we've all come to expect from her.
She gave everybody an idea what her policies are - more of the same garbage we've seen for the last 3+ years.
The republican running against Senator Tester is another right wing bigot, so he fits right into the MAGA party.
Gov. Tim Walz, announced as Vice President Harris’ running mate this week, has previously pushed for broad amnesty for illegal immigrants, putting him on the same page as Harris and further indicating that such a move could be a priority for a future Harris administration.
Walz wrote to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in August 2021 , pushing for a pathway to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants as part of a potential budget reconciliation bill, including those protected from deportation and those who came to the U.S. as minors.
"As you work to finalize a budget reconciliation bill, we urge you to prioritize a clean pathway to citizenship for essential workers, Dreamers, Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, and their families," the letter said.
