Yes we are in the final ten days of the Presiential race. It doesn't look like there is going to be any October surprise like there was last time around with that FBI agent turning up all those fresh E mails by Hillary. That incident turned the race around and turned it into a tie, and election fraud did the rest. This time the farmers are voting for Trump because despite his disasterous trade policies Trump has bribed the farmers with so much money they can't help but vote for Trump. Meanwhile on the election front I don't feel safe unless there is at least an eight or nine point lead in the questionable states. This is the case in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Strangely, Nebraska is in this collum. When you combine all of the four and five point states it looks like enough for Biden to win. But we can't be sure. The last time you remember they said that "Trump had a very limited path to victory". This proved not to be the case. The big states are Arizona, Florida and North Carolina. If North Carolina and Florida don't go for Biden it will make it harder for Biden to win. With these two states winning will be a breeze for Biden. Trump failed to hit one out of the park at the debate on Thursday night. There was no knock out punch like Reagan scored against Carter in the final debate in 1980 ten days before the election. This swayed the numbers from being a dead heat to Reagan scoring a landslide on election day. Who would have guess that could happen. Now they say young Latinos are voting for Trump in droves. This is not a good sign. A lot of people have already voted. I turned in my ballot last Thursday and I'm happy with the way I voted on all of the propositions in this state. I just hope they have results for us on election night and the thing is not somehow hopelessly dragged out. If the votes are already in, why can't they just be counted along with all of the regular votes on election day. Quarantine keeps me from getting to the polls on election day. This quarantine has gone on for in excess of seven months and it's a little much. Now here is more about the debate on Thursday night from an earlier observation.
. The preliminary debate coverage began at
five. I watched it till past eight with
the commentary and all. Trump’s weakness
were two. He kept talking about opening
up the country as the way to tackle the
virus problem. It made no sense. The other was saying that Joe Biden wants to
lock up Black people and Trump is responsible for letting more Blacks out of
prison than Obama. Trump often gave good
lines but they weren’t emphasized strongly enough like saying that Obama
couldn’t get rid of the Black crime bill because the republican congress
wouldn’t let him. Also the climate of
the times wasn’t right. Trump talked
about “shutting down the economy” to save lives when the opposite occurred and
Trump was forced at gun point to do everything he did do. He kept talking about the epidemic being over
by Easter with the arrival of the spring, or it would be over in July. They covered six topics taking fifteen
minutes each. There were two minutes at
the beginning of each segment with the other fellow’s microphone was muted. It was an altogether more civilized debate
this time. I went for medication just
before seven and then I smoked a cigarette.
The sleeping pill kicked in and I dozed off on some of the commentary
and turned the TV off about twenty after eight.
The debate was held in Nashville.
It was the second and final debate, therefore significant.
