Politico: “There’s a great deal of attention in the news media about a potential blue wave that could see Biden sweep states like Georgia and Texas, but inside the Biden campaign and among top Democrats, there is extreme caution. ‘All of us are suffering from PTSD so nobody is overly confident in these poll numbers,’ said a former top member of the Obama administration and confidante of Hillary Clinton. ‘Nobody I know is saying there’s an 80 percent chance this guy is going to be president. God bless America if there’s a wave coming, and I’ll be glad to jump on a surfboard, but these numbers are too close.'”
“The conventional wisdom of those who are willing to believe the polls was summed up by Dylan Loewe, who was a speechwriter for Biden and a book ghostwriter for Kamala Harris. ‘I think Trump’s attacks on mail voting are going to backfire spectacularly,’ he said. ‘So I think this wave is going to be a few feet taller than the polls suggest. But I still get into a fetal position when I think about it. I do think Biden will win Texas. I think we’ll win the Kansas Senate seat. I think Alaska’s in play. And I think the Democrats will win enough state delegations in the house to prevent the house from installing Trump in a contingent election. You can put this on the record if you want. If Trump wins, the last thing on my mind will be my shitty predictions.'”
