MSNBC resurrects Michael Moore

&NewLine;<p>One of the faces that had mercifully disappeared from the small screen &lpar;and the big screen&rpar; is radical left-wing propaganda producer Michael Moore&period;&nbsp&semi; His portly body usually appears in rumpled blue jeans and t-shirts with a baseball cap covering his usually unkempt hair&period; It is stagecraft consistent with his claim of representing the &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;little guy&period;”&nbsp&semi; Moore is worth more than &dollar;30 million dollars&period;&nbsp&semi; The outfit is nothing less than haberdashery hypocrisy&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>I had not realized how long he had been away from frequent appearances on left-wing networks until he re-appeared this week on several MSNBC programs&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>There are two things about Moore that have not changed&period;&nbsp&semi; He spews left-wing cliches and talking points like a wind-up doll&comma; and he does not deal with reality&period;&nbsp&semi;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>In his appearance on MSNBC’s primetime &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;Beat” show with Ari Melber&comma; Moore predicted that the Democrats would have a big win in Tuesday’s Midterm Election&period;&nbsp&semi; His initial statements were unequivocalable&period;&nbsp&semi; When asked about Senate races&comma; Moore assuredly predicted victory for every Democrat&period;&nbsp&semi; He claimed that Democrats would win because the voters were smart&period;&nbsp&semi; &nbsp&semi; Listening to Moore&comma; you would expect to see a blue wave&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>In later appearances&comma; Moore qualified his predictions a smidgeon &&num;8212&semi; but still sees a big win for Democrats&period;&nbsp&semi; He added an &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;if” – if Democrat voters turn out&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Moore bases his prognostications on the fact that there are more registered Democrats than there are registered Republicans&period;&nbsp&semi; If they all turn out&comma; the Democrats cannot lose&comma; according to Moore&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>In revealing the basis for his claim&comma; Moore proves himself as an ignorant fool&period;&nbsp&semi;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>His biggest mistake is not seeming to realize that the largest voting block are the independents&period;&nbsp&semi; They more than the Rs or the Ds will determine the outcomes of elections&period;&nbsp&semi; They generally favor Republicans – this time more than ever&comma; according to the polls&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Moore also seems to have a simplistic view that all registered voters cast all their ballots for the hometown candidates&period;&nbsp&semi; Moore apparently does not remember the so-called &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;Reagan Democrats&period;”&nbsp&semi; Trump attracted a significant number of cross-over Democrats – just as Biden benefited from cross-over Republicans&period;&nbsp&semi; Moore has a childish view of reality when it comes to political dynamics&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Moore also claims that Republican victories in a country with more registered Democrats are because of gerrymandering&period;&nbsp&semi; Partisan redistricting – gerrymandering … is a game played by both parties&period;&nbsp&semi; Check out New York&comma; California&comma; and Illinois&comma; to name a few&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Redistricting is not the reason for Republican victories across the nation&period;&nbsp&semi; It all depends on how the independents break – and how many Democrats voters will defect&period;&nbsp&semi; As long as independents are the largest block of voters&comma; neither the Democrats nor the Republicans can win on their base alone&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>Melber invited Moore to return after the election to see how his predictions worked out&period;&nbsp&semi; I would love to see it&comma; but I am not convinced Moore will show up for his dinner of crow&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>So&comma; there &OpenCurlyQuote;tis&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
