Headlines this morning: Biden's polls number continue to fall despite surging economy!
Don't listen to the polls. Don't listen to the Pundits. You want a better nation? You got to be a better citizen. Show up and you can win. New essay up on Stonekettle Station:

"Hope is a hell of a motivator too."
YES.
I really want to see progressive candidates lean hard into hope.
Also: I actually responded to a poll on the phone last week. They wanted to know my gender, zip code, and name. That's going to eliminate a lot of people already. (After eliminating all the people who don't pick up unknown numbers.)
And then the damn poll took nearly 20 minutes. That eliminates most people who have something better to do.
Polls are self-selecting.
