I'd flip Florida and Arizona on Jelly's map to Trump and say the GOP keeps the senate majority.

Agree with you about Biden being more likable, but not dishonest and a corrupt scumbag?Ibanez wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 9:16 am I'd also say, with respect to polls, that 2020 is really different. For 1, you don't have 2 unlikable, dishonest, corrupt scumbags running. Biden is far more likable than HRC ever was.
Also, at this stage in 2016, Clinton and Trump were much closer than Biden and Trump are. PLUS, there haven't been any October Surprises like Comey's letter. I don't think the Hunter Biden stories have moved the needle much, if any.

I'm not sure what proof there is of him being corrupt (and to be honest I haven't looked deep into it) but he isn't corrupt when compared to Clinton and Or a NYC Real Estate developer during a time when the mafia ran NYC and the construction industry there.SDHornet wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 9:27 amAgree with you about Biden being more likable, but not dishonest and a corrupt scumbag?Ibanez wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 9:16 am I'd also say, with respect to polls, that 2020 is really different.

My prediction is that the DNC steals this election for Biden. PA is his with ballots being able to count with no postmark, that alone will make it hard for Trump to win.
Not sure on the Senate, haven't looked too closely at it tbh. House stays D.
I don't think he's as corrupt and dishonest as Trump or Hillary but he's a politician who became wealthy as a public servant so I think he's dishonest and at least a little corrupt. He showed extremely poor judgement and/or disdain for regular Americans by letting Hunter do the things that he did. He has accomplished very little in the many years of public service and his greatest qualifications for office seem to be that he's not as bad as the other choices and that it's his turn.Ibanez wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:39 amI'm not sure what proof there is of him being corrupt (and to be honest I haven't looked deep into it) but he isn't corrupt when compared to Clinton and Or a NYC Real Estate developer during a time when the mafia ran NYC and the construction industry there.SDHornet wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 9:27 am

Hunter Biden may be unethical but I haven't seen irrefutable proof that Papa Joe was involved.
Hunter laptop scandal, plus the fact that Biden has enriched himself during his career as a politician. Yeah no different than any other scumbag career politician, but the narratives are that Biden isn't like that even though it's obvious that he is.Ibanez wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:39 amI'm not sure what proof there is of him being corrupt (and to be honest I haven't looked deep into it) but he isn't corrupt when compared to Clinton and Or a NYC Real Estate developer during a time when the mafia ran NYC and the construction industry there.SDHornet wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 9:27 am

I get what you're saying and I agree that I hate Biden less than Hilary, but I wouldn't exactly pin the honest, not corrupt tag on him just yet. His best chance to avoid having a terrible legacy is the 25th Amendment so he can go back to the basement.

knowing me, that comment was probably made in jest. Or just being an ass. I, like everyone, figured Clinton had it in the bag. Not that many put an actual number up. Kalm of course posted a lot of fodder but didn't stick his neck out at all.

If I give score predictions, they’re on gameday before kickoff, or a day or 2 before.
FWIW Vegas now has it 290 Biden, 248 Trump (the betting cents are constantly fluctuating)..
