Polling Prognostication with Fred Yang & Jim Gerstein
Listen now
Description
James and Al skewer so-called family values Republicans after recent scandals and welcome polling experts Fred Yang and Jim Gerstein.  They dive into the weak numbers being put up by the Biden campaign, analyzing what’s bringing them down, the composition of the electorate, the role of 3rd party candidates, the messaging challenges ahead, and how to take the lead.  They cover the effects of inflation, the crisis at the border, the lack of enthusiasm among young and minority voters, the Israel-Hamas war, and whether Dobbs has given Democrats a silver bullet.  Plus with the year kicking off, James and Al tackle the latest in college sports as long time fans.
