A sickening feeling is spreading among some of the smarter Democrats that they have royally screwed up their election strategy. (snip) The plan, in short, was to terrorize Americans with fear porn over the purported dangers of COVID (snip) while emphasizing mail-in voting for their base. Republicans, they thought, could be discouraged from in-person voting on Election Day, and with compliant state governors, AGs, and secretaries of state extending deadlines for mail-in votes, the margin of victory could be manufactured
I like Lifson, but this article is not well written, has a spelling error, and no punctuation at the end. Not normal for him.
Otherwise, his keys to God's ears. We need to win BIGGLY tomorrow!!! Our family of four adults all voted for PDT before election day. All of us would have crawled over glass backwards to do so.
MAGA!!! KAG!!! TRUMPS 2020 AND BEYOND! VOTE, WE ONLY HAVE THIS CHANCE TO SAVE OUR BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY!!!

Our parents and grandparents fought and won two world wars, they survived a world-wide Great Depression and Americans have now become so 'wussified' that we are afraid to stand in line for one hour to vote because we might pick up a virus that kills less than 1% of those who catch it? I don't think so. Democrats are afraid but Americans aren't.

Speaking of spelling errors: Biggly?
I do share the sentiment, even with spelling errors.

The Democrats may have inadvertently suppressed their own turnout for election day. Look at the low turnout for Biden's rallies. They are less attended because Democrats are more afraid of CV19 than the average Republican. Democrats believe the fear mongering more than Republicans do. Fewer Democrats will turnout for the election because of CV19. Who wants to go canvassing for votes in the middle of a pandemic? Fewer canvassers means less vote harvesting.
OTOH, Republicans aren't letting CV19 effect their lives as much. The Republicans are more motivated. They will show up at the polls on Tuesday. They will send in their absentee and mail-in ballots. Not so with the Democrats.

The communist left have been playing Wylie Coyote for four years, much to my delight. Everything has backfired and shown them for who they are.

Lifson had to post this a series of 17 tweets in a way to beat the Twitter censors. It was reconstituted for you to read which may explain the grammar issues.

As Rush said one of the core constituency’s of the Democratic Party are stupid people. What do stupid people do, forget to ask for a ballot on time, don’t put a stamp on it, don’t fill it out right, don’t get it witnessed, don’t mail it back in time. That being said I got one from the State of Louisiana and it’s complicated I said to many chances for a foul up so I brought the ballot with me, turned it in and voted in person. Everyone wore a mask and social distanced and I was in and out in 12 minutes.

FTA, some imbedded text -
"Then the anvil fell. RBG died. That meant that there would be NO appeals related to fraud that could succeed.
At around the same time, President Trump got the China Virus, overcame it, & showed that we do not have to walk in constant terror."
Enter the nomination and confirmation of Justice Barrett.
These factors shuffled the deck completely and explain where we are today and the expected re-election of the President tomorrow. A landslide? Not expecting one, but, you never know.
Bring a thermos of coffee with you tomorrow to enjoy while standing in line. You might consider spiking it with some good whiskey before you leave the house.

I went to a Halloween party with about 35 or 40 guests. Of those, maybe four came in with covid masks and those were removed within an hour. Conversations revolved around family, work, school, grandkids, guns and other subjects important to people. I did not hear any talk of covid or elections.
When the party broke up there were warm hugs all around; warmer than I had seen in a year.
You can only keep people scared for so long. Then despite all the goal post moving and the fear commercials, they get tired of it and resume their lives.

Makes sense. Donald Trump is so good, the Road Runner looks at him and says, "how does he do that. beep-beep."
And the Democrats are better customers of Acme than Wile E. Coyote ever was. If they ever get all their plantiffs lawyers after Acme, ol' Marvin Acme will be filing for bankruptcy the next day.

For the first time in my life, I voted last week and dropped my ballot in a steel box at the local city hall. I was concerned that dem thugs were going to congregate at the usual polling place. Too old to fight at 74.

Yes, some spelling errors, but worst of all, Mr. Coyote's name is misspelled. Should be: Wile E. Coyote, please.
I predict a number of post election memes with key Dems and MSM players pictured with exploded exploding cigars photo-shopped in, just like a once again flummoxed Wile E. Coyote!

When this is over, the Dems are gonna wish they’d listened to the Kenyan Lightbringer when he said “never underestimate Joe’s ability to f**k things up!”

I have to turn the radio off. The mantra is Biden victory. They say Biden has a far enough lead in PA, NC, MI and possibly OH and FL. I'm sick to my stomach.

Those noting the yuge disparity in numbers attending Trump and Biden rallies overlook the mail-in attendance, where Biden has logged 25 Billion attendees.
The coming week of watching the daily crawl of ballot harvesting by Dems could be as excruciatingly tedious as having fingernails peeled, layer by layer, from ones fingertips.

I live in California where Governor Numbnuts signed an executive order mandating mail-in voting throughout the state. I got my ballot, voted straight Republican, and dropped it off at my county election office. There is now way in hell that I'd trust my ballot in the hands of the USPS.

#3, “Bigly” is a Trumpism which many of us have adopted and frequently use. The spelling doesn’t really matter. Bigly or Biggly - both work just fine.

Some of you may remember that in the ‘60’s emphasis was added to statements of fact by saying “big league.” For instance, “I think the stock market is going to rise. Big league.” Or, “I’m dreading going for a root canal. Big league.” I think that is what President Trump is saying rather than “biggly.”
