CLR Show 1951. Air Date July 26, 2024. Between the Republican National Convention and voter concern over Donald's attempted assassination it would be reasonable to expect Donald and republicans generally to have experienced a significant bump in their numbers. This is typically the case for American political parties. But just the opposite has happened. What was a 4-point lead over Biden nationally, before and after the RNC convention has evaporated into a dead heat or a one-point trailing of Harris just 2 days into her campaign. What should have been a net 10-point bump can be validly construed as a 15-point lost opportunity deficit. Harris has the wind to her back, a positive message for the country and is rapidly re-coalescing the traditional democratic winning constituency pool. Net, net: This election could produce a 1972 McGovern-like disaster for Donald and his minions. (But we'll play the games just the same!) With Friday Co-Host, David Bach.
