    Biden is committed to destroying the oil industry. It's his mission for the rest of his life. 10 million high wage jobs lost.

He's now up 6.3% in Florida, 7.6% in Pennsylvania, 8.1% in Wisconsin and 9.7% in Michigan. Biden's also ahead in Georgia, Arizona, North Carolina and Ohio. The real question now isn't whether Biden will win, it's whether it will be a landslide.

    I believe (or guess; see below) that if more people pay close attention to Biden's revised immigration platform, which veered left to appease Sanders' voters, Biden will lose a lot of voters.

    I assume most Americans are against illegal immigration, like I am. I was curious to see some polls about it, to gauge whether or not Biden will lose voters over it. I spent some 30 minutes googling and looking around and couldn't see anything solid.

    It seems like the overwhelming majority of polls that address the issue only talk about immigration, period. Not just illegal immigration. So from these polls it would seem like the majority of Americans see immigration in a good light; unsurprisingly since most Americans who are not Native Americans had ancestors who came here from elsewhere. But that doesn't mean we're for illegal immigration.

    I wonder if a poll simply asked this question, no other nuances...

    Are you for or against illegal immigration to the United States?

    ... what the result would be. I suspect the majority would pick "against" but I couldn't find this information anywhere. Does anybody know the answer?

    Center, I'm for any one who takes responsibility for their own self. Those who do not give according to their ability disgust me. Politicians who pander to those who don't give according to their ability disgust me. Women why cry and complain that if I can't get an abortion... someone else ruined my life... disgust me. So illegal immigration, the term is of no interest to me.

    OK, I can respect that.

    Joe Biden is saying...I'm going to raise taxes, I'm going to impose all kinds of regulations on business...and as a result, businesses are going to come crawling back to me begging to relocate back to America. That is what Joey is saying.

    Sounds a lot like a speech he gave 30 years ago before he signed on to Bill Clinton's Nafta trade agreement and a mass exodus of American jobs left for Mexico.

    Same old Joe, only dumber now than the first day he was born.

    Analysts have wondered whether Joseph R. Biden’s sudden lurch to the left would affect his appeal to voters. MoveOn.org has already proclaimed the likely Democratic nominee is the most progressive candidate in Democratic Party history. Now Sen. Bernard Sanders has proclaimed Mr. Biden to be “the most progressive president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt.”


    Voters still pining for comfy old “Uncle Joe” Biden and his more moderate ways perhaps are looking askance at such developments.


    A new Hill-HarrisX general election poll reveals that support for the former vice president has begun to erode. Mr. Biden’s lead over President Trump has dropped, compared to a similar survey conducted in June


    https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jul/9/inside-the-beltway-bidens-lead-over-trump-gets-wob/


    Biden lead over Trump now just at 4 percentage points: Hill-HarrisX Poll


    Wait till Trumps eats him alive at the debates that Biden is desperately trying to avoid

    https://www.washingtontimes.com/news...centage-point/

    I don't trust that he is ahead at all. After all the MSM has done this year I know they will falsify poll numbers because we have a lot of band wagon jumpers among our voters.

    Yeah, organizations like Fox News (showing Biden up 12 points in their most recent poll) are going to falsify poll results to make Trump look bad. Sure.
