If Keystone actually made sense, they'd build it. There's nothing stopping them. But it's been since 2013 that it's been irrelevant as anything but a political fight.

There actually were and are things stopping Keystone XL. That's indisputable. Not the least of which is permits and approvals, e.g., to build it through Nebraska. It's also indisputable that they are building it. Those are just facts. Ergo, it makes sense, at least based on foregoing reasoning.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Among the 47 most competitive races, 38 are currently held by Republicans, 9 by Democrats. Generic Dem ballot leads by double digits in most polls now.

Just saw it pointed out that Obama has better approval ratings than Trump in this poll. IN ALABAMA. lol

Second, if you read the methodology, these are telephone calls to registered voters. I have no doubt Moore will lose, but I doubt if Trump would lose to Obama.
Third, why do you progs put such confidence in polling? I think it is because it is really part of the campaign. Kapture posted the HuffPo pre-election statement that Hillary had a 98.5% chance of winning. That is campaigning, not reporting.

BTW, it was phone calls to 900 people. Not worth much, IMOI feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

Keystone, of course, was and remains the correct decision. One of the limited bright spots in DJT's presidency.
EDIT: I posted this before I read others' posts of the same facts.Last edited by Da Geezer; November 17, 2017, 11:24 AM.

The Huffington Post thing was absolute nonsense at the time and it made no sense. That dude had the audacity to claim Nate Silver was fudging his numbers because his model didn't have nearly the same certainty. it was always much closer than people liked to believe.
The Fox poll is fine, but it is just one poll and your best bet is to take an average of the polls. Moore is up 2 in an aggregate and it depends on the electorate. The makeup of the electorate is important and that's where the Fox News poll might be important it make indicate a depressed electorate on one side not willing to answer a poll. That may or may not indicate an unwillingness to trudge out to the poll to pull the lever for Moore.
