Polls matter... Never forget Clinton won the election by over 3 million

votes..


They give you a view of a place in time how someones message is coming across..


Does that mean who wins the polls today will be the nominee.. or win in the end.. NO.. but it does let you know who is getting their message out.. who the public feels comfortable with.. etc


At this point in the cycle, if the candidates are paying attention.. they can move their campaigns up and down the scale and make adjustments..


Likewise, there can only be one final winner.. and that does not in any way shape form or fashion discount the message of others who did not make the cut..

I always try and listen to everyone, because people for the most part do not jump into something like this for kicks and giggles (with the exception of Trump) .. but because people have a cause and a message..

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

it does not matter who won if the repiggies, the Russians, Fox news, the conservative justices who uphold gerrymandering, etc., etc. steal it.

We cannot let them steal it.
