Lots of numbers and none of them good. Like 67% of Democrats would rather see another Dem candidate. Now watch all the mindless Republicans splooge themselves. Until they see that despite all this if Trump is his opponent the race is a total toss-up. Not to mention the election isn't for another 14 months. So we'll see.
Fox News contributor Kellyanne Conway claimed unfavorable polling data gleaned by CNN could mean Democrats are looking to boot President Joe Biden from the 2024 presidential ticket.
MacCallum aired a clip of former Barack Obama adviser David Axelrod on CNN in which he argued that Biden can’t turn his numbers around, “he should step aside.” “That’s pretty devastating,” Conway reacted before alluding to Vice President Kamala Harris’ unpopularity. “She’s the only person that she thinks she’s ready [to be president]. If she were remotely ready, they would kick him out.” Conway went on to say she finds it “curious” that left-leaning CNN is conducting surveys it knows will be unflattering for Biden. “CNN still running polling questions like this when they know the data are gonna be against Biden is the most curious part of the entire poll for me because we all know CNN wants a Democratic president,” she continued. “I dare them to disprove me, based on their coverage. Why are they running poll questions about Joe Biden’s age and mental fitness and capacity and electability and acuity? It’s very curious to me. This week is the first time I, former campaign manager and counselor, believe that the Democrats are inching closer to not having Biden on the ticket. I’ve not bought into that till this week.”
Her comments make it clear that she's a pollster and political operator who knows nothing about journalism. Obviously, if she were running a real journalistic operation there would be lots of questions that never would be asked. Also clearly, she hasn't been watching CNN lately. There was a change of management some months ago which has pushed CNN's coverage back toward the center. The coverage is much more balanced, with more Republican guests. They are still left of center but not all the way out there in MSNBC-land. But you and Kellyanne probably missed that. If you look up "Political Hack" in the dictionary you see her picture. So clearly you must love her.
and started being honest with their viewers. Their own ratings have on a slow decline for many years, and they were hemorrhaging money, so maybe the other fake news outlets will follow suit and start giving their viewers the facts and not the opinions.
Obama 46% Mitt Romney 48% Obama 47% Rick Perry 47% Obama 47% Ron Paul 45% Obama 48% Michele Bachmann 44% You said it yourself - polls more than one year before the election are meaningless
Nicky misses the point, or more likely deflects, when he points out that Conway isn’t a journalist. What she is is an informed commentator who noted that recent coverage in the main stream media indicates that there are Democrats behind the scenes who are looking for alternatives to a Biden/Harris ticket come 2024.
In the time since she noted this, there has been more activity in the press signaling that there are Dems in high places who would like to see a change at the top. Take for example the Ignatius op-Ed in the Washington Post suggesting Biden should step aside, and that Harris isn’t the best candidate for VP on the 2024 ticket. Also this week were other op-eds calling on Biden to drop Harris. And then “Speaker Emeritus” Pelosi refusing to say “yes” to Anderson Cooper’s “is Kamala the best?” question. Followed by similar waffling from Jamie Raskin when interviewed by Jake Tapper.
