    The worst ones are the ones who go “The only poll that counts is election day!”

    And I’m like “Yeah, that’s how you LOSE and then do a book tour about 'Whyyyyyy? Why did I looooose? It must be someone else’s fauuuuulllt!”

    Yeah, here’s what happened… you shot off your mouth in West Virginia, a state you were NEVER going to win, which lost you Pennsylvania (20 electoral college votes). Then you failed to campaign AT ALL in Michigan (16) and Wisconsin (10).

    Could have been 273 to 258. That’s what happened.

    Joe needs to show up BIG in all three of those states. There’s absolutely no excuse for “Son of Scranton” to be down 4 in PA. None.
