CNN POLL FINDS BIG HARRIS BOUNCE, BIG BIDEN DIP A new poll by CNN finds that, in the aftermath of the two Democratic debates, Kamala Harris has gained more support, and Joe Biden has lost more, than was indicated by the Rasmussen/HarrisX poll I discussed earlier today. According to CNN, Biden now has the backing of 22 percent of Democrats, down from 32 percent a month ago at this time. Harris, meanwhile, is at 17 percent. A month ago, her number was 8 percent. Next in the brand new CNN poll come Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. They are at 15 and 14 percent, respectively. Pete Buttigieg is way down the ladder at 4 percent. Cory Booker and Beto O’Rourke are right behind him at 3 percent. A few thoughts. First, 22 percent is a poor showing for Biden, considering his sky-high name recognition and close connection to Barack Obama. If the poll is accurate, one can argue that Biden is a paper tiger — this season’s Jeb Bush. That, at least, is how he may seem to his main rivals. read more JULY 3, 2019 BY PAUL MIRENGOFF POWERLINE
KAMALA HARRIS’S FAKE NEWS ABOUT “PUTTING FOOD ON THE TABLE” We have noted how Democratic presidential candidates, nearly all of them, are trying to convince Americans that our economy is in woeful condition. Absent an economic downturn, the effort seems destined to fail. As debate moderator Savannah Guthrie informed the field during the first night of debating, most Americans, and even most Democrats, believe the economy is doing well. The numbers support this belief. To take one example, the unemployment rate is below 4 percent. During the second night of debating, Kamala Harris tried to argue her way around this fact. The California Senator declared that she’s “been traveling around the country . . . meeting people who are working two and three jobs.” From these meetings, she purported to conclude that the economic picture is bleak because Americans are working two and three jobs just “to put food on the table.” Harris deftly built on this theme later in the debate when, during a testy exchange between some of the other candidates, she said that Americans aren’t interested in food fights, but rather in putting food on the table. Harris may not be lying, exactly, with her multiple jobs story. There’s no doubt that some Americans are working two, or in a few cases, three jobs, and Harris very likely has met such people. It may even be the case that a few of these folks, if their families are large enough, need to work multiple jobs just to put food food on the table, as opposed to paying for less elemental items or just for satisfaction. read more at Powerline |
