Don't look now, but...

Generic Ballot:


Monmouth1/28 - 1/30711 RV4745Democrats +2
Economist/YouGov1/28 - 1/301264 RV4237Democrats +5
Reuters/Ipsos1/26 - 1/301856 A3731Democrats +6
Rasmussen Reports1/24 - 1/251000 LV4537Democrats +8
FOX News1/21 - 1/231002 RV4438Democrats +6

Whatever happened to those big double digit Democratic leads? These look, well, almost typical. Once you pull out that three or four points that Democrats always over perform in generic ballot polling, suddenly you are looking at something other than a "Democrats in a landslide" style election.

It's why you don't panic this early out. A lot can happen between now and November.

But I must say that if the Democrats were intentionally trying to lose the election they couldn't do a better job than this.

"Tesla rolls into Home Depot stores
Feb. 1, 2018 11:33 AM• SA Editor Clark Schultz
Tesla (TSLA -0.1%) is planning a significant expansion of its selling presence at Home Depot (HD +0.3%) stores, according to a Bloomberg report.

Special areas of ~800 Home Depot stores in the U.S. will be outfitted during the first half of this year with solar products and staffed by Tesla employees. 12-foot displays will help introduce the solar panel and Powerwall battery concepts to interested consumers."

All of the above when it comes to meeting US Consumers Energy needs.

Mother of Daughter Murdered by MS-13 gangsta'.

"Mickens’ mother Elizabeth Alvarado said it was overwhelming.

“Very overwhelming feeling all that love for us, what we stand for, and for my daughter, and for Kayla,” she said.

“Not too many people get a chance to meet a president. We are both in shock about it,” Mickens’ father Robert said.

“He kissed me on my forehead which I was like, my god I am just a little pea in a pod, but he did acknowledge and I felt his connection that he felt my pain,” Evelyn said.

The US Press just got served. President Trump winning Bigly

They will be back...there is plenty of time for more R's to not run again...Seems Howdy Gowdy is abandoning ship like the other 30 or so that have "retired" the polls are interesting, but the rats going home are the real tale of the party of Trump....

So far 15 Democrats are not going to ride the Blue Wave in 2018.

With all the fbi and doj corruption and pro-hillary election rigging, its amazing that she still managed to lose to a political novice.

And the result is that the deep state criminal element is being exposed.

Bravo President Trump.

Draining the swamp one memo at a time

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Labor Department released its official hiring and unemployment figures for January on Friday morning, providing the latest snapshot of the American economy.

The Numbers
■ 200,000 jobs were added last month. Wall Street economists had expected an increase of about 180,000, according to Bloomberg.

■ The unemployment rate was at 4.1 percent, the same as in January and the lowest since 2000.

■ Average earnings rose by 9 cents an hour and are up 2.9 percent over the past year.

The Takeaway
Another month, another solid jobs report. The pace of job growth has slowed somewhat over the last two years, but the economy is still adding jobs at about two million a year — a solid figure at a time when the unemployment rate is so low. January marks the 88th straight month of job growth, the longest such streak on record.

The memo. If it is released, will not be sufficient to cause the truthers to have an orgasm. L

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

I posted that as soon as it was available.

I thank both President Barack Obama and President Trump. This is good news for everyone.

LOL SO deeply broken.

Obama unemployment 5.1 % ( F-TARD hb called it full employment)

Trump unemployment 4.1 %.

Alky the cripple also said WE would not post the U -6.
U-6
Obama Jan 10.1 %
Trump Jan 8.2 %

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Obama took office with the economy losing 800,000 jobs per month.

Six months later, we have seen 88 straight month of job growth,

To give credit where credit is due, both of them deserve to be credited with success.

History will record these as Trump job gains.

No matter how much you wish it not to be so.

Idiot alky. Lowest form of liberalism.

Hey, alky. Did you "bury" this side of the blog with your side , I never go there.

Commonsense said...

Yes, rightly or wrongly the guy on the watch gets the credit or blame.

Good news for the country. A challenge for the Democrats in this year's midterms if the economy keeps roaring.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Six months later, we have seen 88 straight month of job growth, will be given credit for the longest sustain economic growth in history, will be given credit to President Barack Hussein Obama, who was not born in Kenya. President Birther will go down in history as the worst shithole President in history.

Obama unemployment 5.1 %

Which was the best rate any POTUS left behind for 49 years.....IOW's a rate that was improving, unlike what he was given by busch....What is the probability that trump can reduce the rate by as much as Obama did????

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Trump will be given credit for the year. That's how it works. But he was lucky to inherit a booming economy.

Commonsense said...

What Roger will never get is that most people don't understand or care about esoterice economic figures.

But they do understand and care very much about their own personal financial situation.

And what they know is that their situation sucked under eight years of Obama and doesn't suck under one year of Donald Trump.

BTW we just got the new paychecks under the Trump tax cuts and my "bread crumbs" amount to about $200 a week.

Very doubtful for someone of no education and menial labor job like you have......

commie said...

Someone who earns $75,000 a year could expect annual tax savings of $2,078. That breaks down to about $86.50 per paycheck, if you're paid twice a month.

Gee menstral, I think you are full of it...

Commonsense said...

Yes, that's about right if you make $75,000 a year.

commie said...

Yes, that's about right if you make $75,000 a year.

And you make more than that???? That is probably the sweet spot for tax breaks unless you are a big time earner, which I really doubt... A high school drop out picking up garbage, 75k is a very generous income for you....10k tax savings a paycheck is pure BS, unless you are full of shit and lied again....LOLOLOL I see you are still embarrassed to sh\are what you actually do for a living other than blogging on this little slice of heaven and playing a piss poor game of golf.....!!!

Jobs created:

Obama: govt, temp, contract, part time jobs

Trump:

Full time, manufacturing, middle class jobs with raises, bonuses and wage growth

Roger pretends there's no difference.
