Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).
Interesting New Polling (link). I bet Steve Schmidt chit his pants this morning.

This doesn’t surprise me at all.
Trump wood win a third time in another Landslide and Ron can’t even out poll there worst candidate.
Polling services in Florida have Ron leading GOP candidates in every region besides the Midwest (swing state central). He polls so bad in the Midwest that Lyin Ted polls better.
Polling represents a field with know Trump which is why Ron is considered the “top ranked” at times:
“The Governor is the top-ranked candidate in three of four geographic regions also. He leads in the Northeast, South, and West, but struggles comparatively in the Midwest, where Cruz’s 16% narrowly bested DeSantis’ 15%.”
Another GOP 2024 poll shows Ron DeSantis leading a non-Donald Trump field
Weaknesses emerged with voters in the Midwest, as well as single women.

Was this done with just republican voters? There is no way they found that number of republicans to support either Brandon or Harris over any republican candidate.
Bye goad dew yew mean dampening The Don’s #s so The Swamp gets Ronald like they want?
I don't know, they wanted Trump so badly to be the nominee in '16. How'd that work out for hillary & the dems?
If they want Trump so badly, then why are they trying every possible avenue to snoop around for some BS charge to ensure he can't run?
Changes upon us 2022
I'd like to see Trump/Tim Scott.
That'd red pill the rest
No, the Democrats were pushing the line that Trump had no shot at winning in 2016. Media was pushing Jeb Bush as the most “electable” candidate.
Some of the msm was pushing Jeb, especially early, but much of the media and certainly dems wanted hillary vs Trump. They thought that would be a cake walk. Hell, Morning Joe had Donald on regularly, & talked about him all the time. Their coverage of him was as positive as an R will ever see, right up until he won the GOP nomination and they all turned on him.
The polls certainly never gave Trump a chance though, I agree.
