GOP Is In Trouble?

It got interesting after a polling team released a story this past week announcing that most of their polls were fake. Meaning they never really ran a poll, and they say they did it to see if the media would take it and run with it.
The media did. They took the information and passed it to their friends at the DNC. And the DNC touted it. And we all giggle now at what this little polling shop made fools out of everyone in politics. The Republicans panicked. The Democrats smiled and went on the war path that only they believe.
As I do the numbers for the midterms, I have prepared to put the flex in the numbers. What does that mean? It means that Texas is + 11 in the question of are you GOP or DEM. And that slide goes to none other than the GOP. Now we have some pissed-off GOPERS who are crazy enough to vote for a socialist. Okay, fine. We see them at around 7% based upon early polling. That leaves 5 points swinging in the wind. And there we have our margin of error.
Now we add that to the polling numbers, and we do not see a blue wave, which we have expected.
We firmly believe the Governor will win his race. Local races are in flux.
The races to watch are the county clerk’s seat and the county treasurer’s seat. As the clerk’s seat goes, there goes the election. Also watch the district judge’s race. If the blue doesn’t appear in numbers over 14%, Jefferson County will remain red.
The GOP has some real problems. They have ZERO leadership. None, nada. At least when Peel was in things got done. He is dead. And so went the party.
We are not saying anything but this: no matter what happens, the GOP has major problems they need to fix now. Not tomorrow, but now.
If they do not fix it, the people will not come. FIX IT.
