Don't lead the pack of corporate owned news outlets in negativity. We've been thrown a lifeline - hang on to it and promote the enthusiasm felt by the outsiders instead of the woe is me BS of the insiders. Hand ringing is not useful or needed

Methinks there is an insider bias in the upper echelons of political pundits, and they totally miss the average non-politically obsessed American voter. Glad Bill Kristoll acknowledged that, at least.

Nobody has any legitimate expertise in this kind of presidential campaign because it's never been seen before. Listening to actual voters is just as legit as any campaign pundit.

The one thing I am curious to see is if Kamala closes the gap between the presidency and down ballot races, especially Senate races.

Exactly! Now I wish I hadn't read this newsletter (I'm avoiding MSM since learning that enough delegates have pledged), as I'm determined to focus on the positive. I've been told that denial is not in my repertoire, so it's not that. And it's absolutely not thinking by any stretch that we have this sown up. I'm just exhausted, and decided recently that the strategy you describe is the most productive. The more of us who focus on all the good this latest development could mean for our country, the more powerful our efforts will be.

This is silly. If you want this type of reinforcement then consider joining a cult.

Huh, I thought the newsletters were pretty positive. I may have been reading too many predictions of doom.
