Personally… I AM NOT!
I am 100% pulling for a divided government.
I’m also leaning toward Kamala simply because I am exhausted by MAGAmania AND by TDS. She is boring as hell but as long as she has no Congressional support I can endure four years of her cackling.
what happens at the top. If she wins it will be moderate women, Independents, and traditional R’s who don’t like Orange who will do it.
This is a referendum on Trump.
I've largely not paid much attention this cycle. Close elections comes down to who can get out the vote. Polls don't matter if people don't show up and vote. Who has the best ground game? The people that love Trump, or the people that hate him?
But among the 'RFK isn't great, but the best among bad options' crowd, Trump has the advantage, IMO. I've talked to a lot of people who really dislike Kamala.
You want Trump to win, but you don’t want ownership.
I assumed peoples' opinions of Trump would be more fully formed than of Harris.
Those not voting for either won't decide the winner.
I went to the Vance rally in Eastern Market and the Harris rally in Ann Arbor. Neither was particularly high energy, IMHO, compared to when I went to the Obama rally in Chicago in 08. I think she'll take Michigan, but it will be very close.
comparing a VP candidate to their Presidential candidate.
I do think that Whitmer has been skewing things so heavily in every way with taxpayer dollars that it is a challenge for Trump in MI (for example Constant letters and texts from the state to my college age daughter, but not males to remind them to vote, and an aggressive AG who will prosecute conservatives if they question illegal election activities). Fortunately, in her case that is a Trump vote, but they are playing the %'s by reminding the higher Dem demographic to vote.
Trump rallies seem very energetic.
Agree with you regarding MI and Gretch's efforts to assist Harris. I think sanity will prevail in states that aren't as predisposed to cheating (i.e., she'll win PA and MI). A Harris victory really calls into question the validity of the system.
