[With the sans-mea-culpa discovery of Hunter Biden’s emails by the leftwing media, we now have a widely available example of how the Dems impacted the 2020 election without necessarily messing with the ballot stuffing and vote counting itself. As Bryan Caplan (Myth of the Rational Voter) showed some years back, the media can readily impact the outcome through the mass swaying of votes by how it covers and covers up news that shape voters’ attitudes. You cannot censor lies without also censoring truth – it was ever thus. gjr]

re: BillT@10:02AM
That makes me wonder what the real overlap is between administrations and mid-term Congressional elections in terms of shared interest.
If you are the President (well, the people in the Biden administration as they navigate ‘Weekend at Bidens’), the important thing is to remain President, at all costs. Artificially juicing the economy, bombing furriners, swinging the captive MSM into action, has a four year cycle.

So, you are falsely accused of rape and can’t find a IVY League attorney to defend you or an IVY League prosecutor than cannot bring themselves up to the task of going after a rapist? How about homicide? Too traumatizing for the class? No much violence? Makes the cream puffs feel bad?

Meanwhile, some of those Democrat politico experts are seeing distrubing trends in both the swing states and now the Dems are losing the hearts and minds of those in the suburbs. Things will be more in focus after the midterms. Nothing like opening a can of Whoop Ass to get their attention. As if Virginia isn’t a battle cry for the pitchfolked and broom carrying mob to clean the place out….well, just keep doing what you are doung and you will keep getting what you are getting.
At that time, it don’t matter who runs for Potus. Them Dems will the unions, but the R’s will have the workers..and the middle class.

Fox News Poll: Biden’s inflation troubles persist as voters cite high gas prices, spending woes
More domestic oil drilling favored by three-quarters of voters
An overwhelming majority says rising gas prices are a problem for their family.
Over half of voters think inflation is “not at all” under control and views on the economy remain decidedly negative.
Two-thirds have had to cut back on spending to make ends meet, as a growing number say they are falling behind financially.
More than twice as many think the Biden administration has made the economy worse rather than better.
Two-thirds disapprove of how Biden is handling inflation, including a sizable minority of Democrats.

The biggest problem the Democrats face as we approach the midterms is the cost of energy. That, and the fact that a large majority of voters understand that the Biden administration has tried to suppress American production of gas and oil. Thus the desperate attempts in several states to mail checks to voters to help make up for the price of gasoline. Spoiler alert: it won’t work.

So they want to send money to people that pay taxes to ‘help’ buy gasoline with money they collect from the same taxpayers.

And the same politicians that like to send checks to voters to help buy overpriced fuel will happily espouse the same line of crap next election time that helps to drive up the price of fuel.
