Once upon a time, Barack Obama had the world at his feet. Tens of thousands of adoring people would come to see him, and often women would react to him as teens once reacted to Frank Sinatra, by fainting away in his presence. Now, though, not so much. Obama is stumping for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and the magic is gone. Nowadays, Obama is drawing crowds that only number in the tens and maybe the hundreds. (snip) The following are videos showing his campaign stop in Philadelphia. Don’t you love his little bullhorn as he “sneaks up” on these fifteen or so people? Correction*

Biden's campaign brought Obama in to give them a boost. Well, the boost did not happen. No one is excited about the Biden/Harris campaign. This is of their own doing. They sheltered both candidates by using the COVID 19 as an excuse to hide them and using the same excuse for the empty rallies. The truth is, the excitement is not there and only a few people would attend. Bottomline, Obama is boring and so in Biden and Harris. The magic is not there.

The total lack of enthusiasm for Biden is the cause of Obama campaigning to meager groups (not crowds). Donald Trump is going to be reelected in a massive landslide, including winning the popular vote. His will win more than 270 electoral votes.
His win may even resemble Walter Mondale's defeat. Mondale was Jimmy Carter's Vice President in Carter's 1976 election. In 1984 the Mondale-Ferraro ticket received 40.6% of the popular vote) and won only 13 electoral votes (to Ronald Reagan's 525). The result was the worst electoral college defeat for any Democratic Party candidate in history.
Notice: Former VP with a woman VP candidate.

Actually, as much as I despise what tiny barack did to this country, give him the respect that he's due; he got more supporters to come out and listen to him than Kamala and Biden's rallies combined. What Kamala and Biden rallies? Ha! Ha! It couldn't happen to a more deserving person. I watched his gathering (no way that was a rally) on YouTube, and I couldn't stop laughing. How the mighty have fallen. There was a bunch of cars, and a few people were outside their cars taking pictures or videos. From what I could tell, the "crowd" was mostly black people still hanging on to the fake Greek columns and the fake great obama. He was yelling into the microphone to make it seem like he was speaking to a large crowd. Probably two cars were honking. They had to fill the space with carefully spaced cars to get a "crowd"! It made me think of his cash for clunkers program showing up to get its revenge. CNN had the nerve to say he took it to Donald Trump. I freakin' laughed out loud at that one. That tree fell in the forest, but nobody heard it! Meanwhile Kamala was in Asheville, NC; her "crowd" was about 11, and the clowns in the "crowd" were socially distanced. Out freakin side. She came bouncing onto the wood stage with a puny sign in front of the podium, and you could tell she was excited about the size of the crowd of 11. It was too funny. The media keeps talking about how Biden has out raised PDT, but money can't buy you love, and it can't buy crowds anymore either. At least not for the dog face pony show that is the Biden campaign!

"Nowadays, Obama is drawing crowds that only number in the tens and maybe the hundreds."
This tells a very graphic story of the lack of enthusiasm for the dems and their leadership. Meanwhile,Trump is drawing mega crowds wherever he goes and people are having boat, car, and other rallies when he isn't even there. That translates to election turnout and the death of the dems and also the death of BO's ego, status, and "transformation of America" agenda. Note that Hillary and BJ are not not even involved beyond Hillary's endless carping from the peanut gallery. There are NO effective dem leaders. Sure there are dems that get in front of the cameras to jibber jabber but they are only there to break up the media babbling to each other. There were 29 dem candidates of some significance that ran for president and all of them would have trouble filling up a room for a speech let alone a 10,000+ venue as Trump does almost EVERY DAY.
The biggest crowds that dems draw is the rioters, which shows the state of the dem "party". They are angry anarchists and trying to destroy America. They are telling us fraudulent stories about how bad our Country is and has been since its founding. It is a massive smear campaign and it can be laid at the feet of the dem party, their thugs, the media, Hollyweird, big tech, foreign countries interfering in our election (Iran, Russia, China). There should be a BIG price paid by these entities for these lies. To win, they are willing, even eager, to destroy this Country.
Worse than COVID, the dem party has been infested and fatally infected with Socialism and small, grasping individuals and it is in its death throes. A good chunk of this can be laid at BO's feet. His agenda pushed out more moderate dems and turned the party into the ugly grasping "Gollum" it is today. Unlike Tolkien's character that "has some part to play in it", the dem party has no useful value. It should be pushed into the fire and have done with it.

Biggest problem Biden has is that he would be nothing more than a third term for Obama and those rotten policies. Biden has never overcome that obstacle, and thankfully never will. Not after the success of Trump.

Why is Biden ahead in the polls?
It's one of the great mysteries of this election.

#8, he isn’t. If he were there would be no reason to send 0bama to royal blue Philadelphia.

#2, he can't be elected with out more than 270 votes.
I am very worried, but the prediction guy at primarymodel.com who says his methods, based on primary election results, have correctly predicted 25 or the last 27 presidential elections says it is 91% probably that the winner will be Trump with 362 EC votes.
I hope he is correct.
