Should people be voting for policy, or the persons personality? (and I know that it is impossible to separate I guess)
We had this discussion earlier about it Presdient Trump was not running and there was another candidate (I think we spoke of Gov. DeSantis) who had the exact same policy positions, would he be doing as well? I think that the agreement was that probably not.
I read a quote from a CEO who said something like, "The only decisions I should be making are those that ONLY I can make". I understand it to mean that he did not want to make low level, medium level or even high level decisions. He has faith in his EVP's, SVP's, etc. to make those. Only the super high level decisions are the ones he should be involved with.
I think that presidents often get too involved in decisions that others can (and probably should) make.

It’s not going to be a complete helix. My guess is you’ll see the each turn get smaller.

0.2%

That’s dropped since Biden dropped out. I seem to recall it being as high as 4-5%

As you pointed out yourself, 53-46) in probability is a tossup.

I wish we could stop pretending that this is an election to decide on the best candidate for the country and start admitting that whoever's going to win is arbitrarily ahead in the polls on that particular day. It's not like anyone in the country whose financial future is tied to a particular candidate actually likes any of these people.

Trump’s favorability rating - 10pts underwater.
Harris’ is +0.3
She's had 90%+ favorable publicity from every major broadcast media and every cable media, with the exception of FOX, for her entire candidacy. Trump has been 95% negative.
She ought to be better than than that.

Aqua says the truth.

Leveled off, some signs it will start contracting again over the next few days…
