Hmm. The old folks got quite a sugar high today. But like all sugar highs, the crash comes quickly.

That's exactly what you've been doing since 2016.

Did you watch the POTUS mocking a woman who came forward with her story of sexual assault? Believe her or don't believe her - the sight and sound of the kitty grabber mocking her pissed women off a great deal. Even the mildest of women that I know were infuriated at his behavior.

So, yeah, I think they will come out.

You may find the opposite effect too. More Democrats may be angered enough to show up and vote. More Republicans may be annoyed at how Senate Democrats have handled the hearings and show up and vote. Anger is the biggest reason why people show up and vote. It's an emotion we can't always control.
Yep. That would be me, and it will be a big indisposition, but I'll do it anyway. You don't just abandon due process. Plus, I like Lou Barletta. He may not have much of a chance against incumbent Casey, but I'll be doing my part.


And, BTW, I'm a woman.

No, many women also care about presumption of innocence, evidence, burden of proof, etc, and would not want such accusations without evidence to damage their fathers, sons, and husbands.

Everybody is just spinning here either pro-Republican or pro-Democrat. Here's the honest, objective truth: both sides are equally motivated, both sides are very fired up. Enthusiasm is very high on both sides. A recent Marist poll showed 82% of Dems and 80% of Repubs believed the upcoming election was "very important."

The big "IF" for November is turnout. Repubs are reliable voters, Dems are not. If Dems are motivated and actually show up to the polls, then will do well. But high Democrat turnout doesn't happen very often. We'll see.

As a moderate who gets to listen to the locals everyone was basically trashing the democrats the whole time. If anything this whole mess strengthened the party, in that it will likely get moderates voting republican and increase republican voter turnout.

I do believe that the anger on the side of our better half will show up at the polls in great numbers.
Real women are angry.
I'm a real woman and I'm not angry. I'm gratified and relieved. As are many other women that I know. You and I apparently travel in different circles.

See,I feel the same way . I feel the Dems took trump to lightly in 2016 and the republicans think they have the mid terms locked up....I think it will be a surprise.
