Osceola county had a whopping 191% increase in AA voting on Saturday.That is the Kissimmee/St Cloud just south of Orlando(Thank you Dreamers, you kids ROCK!)</p> <p>The counties around Tampa Bay had a good increase. Big Dog was in town yesterday with Crist to do "Souls to the Polls" in Tampa. I haven't seen the numbers yet for this week end. Hillsboro County, which is Tampa, has now had more early votes at this point then then they collected for the whole 2010 race.</p> <p>When early voting started last Monday the Republicans had a 12% lead in mail in ballots in the state.  But since then the Democratic Party has turn out to reduce that lead by Sunday to 7.6%. That is picking off 1% a day and a week to go.  In the last midterm at this point the Repugs was 18% ahead in ballots. The Bannock Street Project was not in Florida this has all been done by local party organizing.  </p> <p>Remember Florida's Governor's race is a toss up lean R.  They gave Romney the lead in Florida too.  Hmm...I think they don't really know as much as they think they do. </p> <p>Scott's campaign is in a panic.  Their internal poll on Saturday sucked.  Bits and pieces has been leaking out even though they put it in a draw and didn't release it.  His female support tanked  among Republican women.  In general that will be the case for Repubs across the country.  </p> <p>The Dems are having a breaking record turn out in North Carolina. That credit goes to Moral Mondays.</p> <p>If you are wondering why the Democratic Party would open a office up in the Arctic Circle, Sam Wang rates the votes in AK worth 100% power compared to the next one on the list as IA worth 36.8% power.  A vote in MI is worth 0.1% in that Senate race. It could very well mean that the Indigenous Peoples of Alaska will be deciding who will control the Senate in 2015. The closer the race the more your vote is worth. </p> <p>This really is an historic election because of all the toss ups.  Since the Reagan election in 1980, the Republicans have never defeated more then 2 sitting incumbents in any given year. They couldn't do it in any of their wave years either. </p> <p>Democrates have been bullied for the last 35 years and we are having a hard time shaking that grey cloud away.  </p> </div></div></div> Tue, 28 Oct 2014 02:22:07 +0000 trkingmomoe comment 200222 at http://dagblog.com I missed this for some reason http://dagblog.com/comment/200218#comment-200218 <a id="comment-200218"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/guy-cecil-chairmen-dscc-explains-ground-game-path-keeping-senate-18977">Guy Cecil, Chairmen of The DSCC Explain&#039;s Ground Game, The Path to Keeping The Senate</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>a</p> </div></div></div> Mon, 27 Oct 2014 22:49:24 +0000 Richard Day comment 200218 at http://dagblog.com I missed this for some reason http://dagblog.com/comment/200217#comment-200217 <a id="comment-200217"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/guy-cecil-chairmen-dscc-explains-ground-game-path-keeping-senate-18977">Guy Cecil, Chairmen of The DSCC Explain&#039;s Ground Game, The Path to Keeping The Senate</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>I missed this for some reason</p> <p>Heilman is supposed to be a beer.</p> <p>And Helpermin, sounds like some guy who was hired by Heilmann to sell beer. hahahahah</p> <p>I do not like these guys.</p> <p>I never liked these guys.</p> <p>I can get better ideas from Mika whom I despise. hahahahah</p> <p>Well let us see how bad it will be in eight days.</p> <p>I just see negatives.</p> <p>But I am always negative.</p> <p>Maybe I am a hedgebetter.</p> <p>the end</p> </div></div></div> Mon, 27 Oct 2014 22:48:56 +0000 Richard Day comment 200217 at http://dagblog.com I loved the characterization http://dagblog.com/comment/200185#comment-200185 <a id="comment-200185"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/200183#comment-200183">Maybe Meet the Press could be</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>I loved the characterization of the belly snitches, so fitting. </p> </div></div></div> Sat, 25 Oct 2014 23:34:18 +0000 Resistance comment 200185 at http://dagblog.com Maybe Meet the Press could be http://dagblog.com/comment/200183#comment-200183 <a id="comment-200183"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/200177#comment-200177">I believe a case can be made</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Maybe Meet the Press could be held from the border, just east of Nogales.

They are dependent on Koch money because the economy isn't as good as it once was.  There isn't the variety of advertisers we used to see.  CNN is going through a big lay off right now.  People want real news, If the national media don't adapt to this new generation they are going to follow the GOP into the dust bin of history. </p> <p>There has been more poor quality polling this cycle.  Sam Wang covers it in his article last week in The New Republic.  </p> <blockquote> <p><span style="font-size:17px">The introduction of new survey methods may have changed the accuracy of polls</span><span style="font-size:17px">—</span><span style="font-size:17px">for better or for worse</span><span style="font-size:17px">—</span><span style="font-size:17px">and partisan polls are more frequent this year, creating another source of uncertainty. In fact, the probabilities offered by poll aggregators might not even be the best way to think about this year's Senate forecasts, in part because we tend to mentally round probabilities up to 100 percent.</span></p> </blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.newrepublic.com/article/119844/2014-midterm-predictions-republicans-not-guaranteed-win-senate">http://www.newrepublic.com/article/119844/2014-midterm-predictions-republicans-not-guaranteed-win-senate</a> </p> <p> </p> </div></div></div> Sat, 25 Oct 2014 20:27:56 +0000 trkingmomoe comment 200181 at http://dagblog.com I believe a case can be made http://dagblog.com/comment/200177#comment-200177 <a id="comment-200177"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/200175#comment-200175">As an undecided American</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>I believe a case can be made that the reason John McCain has not, after all this time, secured the border is that he has been forced to appear on Meet The Press every Sunday.   If we can just pass legislation barring him from any further appearances, he can finally get back to building that fence 24 / 7 / 365.  (P.S. 24 / 7 / 365 s also the combination to McCain's locker in the Senate cloakroom.  But never mind that.) </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div></div></div> Sat, 25 Oct 2014 19:19:57 +0000 MrSmith1 comment 200177 at http://dagblog.com As an undecided American http://dagblog.com/comment/200175#comment-200175 <a id="comment-200175"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/guy-cecil-chairmen-dscc-explains-ground-game-path-keeping-senate-18977">Guy Cecil, Chairmen of The DSCC Explain&#039;s Ground Game, The Path to Keeping The Senate</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>As an undecided American voter I consider it my patriotic duty to educate myself by watching political attack ads just before the election.</p> <p>I make my voting decision as late as possible cause a new attack ad may come out at the last minute.</p> <p>This election I wonder who cared enough about saving us from <a href="http://azcapitoltimes.com/news/tag/puerto-rican-terrorists/">Puerto Rican terrorists</a> or <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/02/05/utah-bill-would-dictate-transgender-use-school-restrooms/">transgenders in restrooms</a> to spend loads of cash for the ads.</p> </div></div></div> Sat, 25 Oct 2014 19:16:55 +0000 NCD comment 200175 at http://dagblog.com Oh please, oh please, oh http://dagblog.com/comment/200172#comment-200172 <a id="comment-200172"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/guy-cecil-chairmen-dscc-explains-ground-game-path-keeping-senate-18977">Guy Cecil, Chairmen of The DSCC Explain&#039;s Ground Game, The Path to Keeping The Senate</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Oh please, oh please, oh please let this be true!   I am so sick of hearing, even on MSNBC, the nightly beltway meme that the Dems are almost certainly going to lose control of the Senate.  It's nice to finally hear a counter-argument. </p> </div></div></div> Sat, 25 Oct 2014 13:59:44 +0000 MrSmith1 comment 200172 at http://dagblog.com
