Warren LEADS in Iowa, Biden 4th in a new poll - US Election 2020


Lets Get Real:

If the Biden Campaign is taking comfort in the their lead in a recent national poll they are making a great political mistake.  At the end of the day it is down to the States, and these polls have not been good for Biden when it comes to Iowa and New Hampshire.  The Biden Campaign can not afford to lose Iowa and NH, this would give great political momentum to Warren if she can win both States.  The great lead that Biden has in SC due in part to the African - American vote could fall fast if Warren is seen as the winner.  Also Biden has to worry about Mayor Pete, he is 2nd in this new poll from Iowa.  Senator Harris who placed all her bets on winning Iowa and is no show.  Biden has to hit Iowa and NH hard, otherwise he will become yesterday's man fast.  Let not forget that the impeachment of Trump and his Senate Trial will take up the early months of 2020, a political distraction, the Democratic candidate need all the free TV coverage they can get. 

Labour to say NO to an election ? - Brexit Update 3 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real

If the above is accurate then we have a ZOMBIE Parliament that has been take over by the HARD REMAINERS. PM Boris should call a NO CONFIDENCE in himself and get the Party to vote for it, then the House of Commons would have 14 days to find a successor to Boris or there would be an election. Is the House of Commons bubble so gone that MPs have fallen off political reality. Any attempt to place Corbyn in No 10 would lead to political disaster for those MPs who support the move. The nutters have taken over our political system.

Labour and a General Election - Brexit Update 2 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

This is an interesting time for LABOUR, they have turned down 2 general elections requests from PM Boris, in political terms can they afford to say NO AGAIN, they are already being called Turkeys and a ZOMBIE Parliament, will Jeremy Corbyn allow himself to be controlled by the HARD REMAINERS, that would be a disaster for Labour, they would be seen as pure political operatives, who do not trust or believe in the UK voter.  Labour needs a hard think over the weekend.  The Change Party faces losing  all its seats even the Liberal Democrats could be hit, that is why the small Parties, such as Plaid Cymru and SNP are running away from an election.

12th December General Election ? - Brexit Update 1 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

Thus will Labour MPs, be Turkeys voting for Christmas, if the EU grants a three month extension as demanded by Jeremy Corbyn what weasel words will he use to avoid supporting a motion for a general election.   Even if supports the general election his backbench MPs could refuse, most of the MPs in marginal seats know they face being sent to the jobcentre, it was typical of the BBC to have talking points for Labour MPs not to support the motion, it would be nice if the BBC allowed the supposed political party to make those points.  The tone of the BBC, was why have an election, they showed they are HARD REMAINERS who want a 2nd Brexit vote.  Monday will be interesting, what matters most to Labour, following the word of their leaders of keeping their warms seats in the House of Commons.

JFK's Women - The Myth and Reality of being a Kennedy - US History


Lets Get Real:

One does wonder how then Senator then President Kennedy found the time for his women, it was only of late that the WORLD learned that he had his own intern problem, very much like President Clinton.   JFK's affairs would not have come out if not for Watergate, after that his historical legacy took a battering, then the world learned that Kennedy did a deal with the USSR over the missiles in Cuba, he agreed to remove the missiles in Turkey six months after the then USSR removed their missiles, but made it clear, that if it came out the deal was over. Political considerations were most important than World peace.  Yet Kennedy was a great President, he did make a deal with the USSR over the missiles in Cuba, yes he sold out Turkey, but that needed to happen to avoid World War 3.  Greatness does not mean perfection, just makes leaders human.  Bill Clinton is no JFK or Reagan, the old dog is far to flawed an individual. 

Three Month Extension for Brexit - Brexit Update 2 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

This PM Boris gets a short extension and in that time can call a general election, the Opposition will find it hard to reject an election, they wanted an extension, well the have gotten one, what reason will they give to try to avoid a general election, all the polls show that Labour would get a massive beating.  The PM should go to the Country on a HARD BREXIT, that the House of Commons can not be trusted, and that the Courts have shown a REMAIN BIAS, specially the Scottish Courts.  There will be those within the Labour Party that wand a 2nd Brexit vote, but the Brexit supporters might just be lucky, Corbyn wants a general election, thus it might just happen.  A general election before Christmas, fantastic NOT!!.

PM Boris PAUSES Brexit Deal - Brexit Updat1 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

Thus today was another anti climax, very much like Saturday, the Speaker would not allow a Brexit vote on Saturday, then today the House of Commons voted for a 2nd reading of the Brexit Deal but refused to follow the Government timetable.   The PM stated that he was pausing the process, this is wise, the PM should go for a general election, get an extension, a short extension and then call a general election and force the Opposition Parties to refuse to grant one after they said they would once a extension was give by the EU.  The House of Commons is a ZOMBIE Parliament, most of the HARD REMAINERS face getting the boot by the voters, that is why they are afraid of a general election.   PM Boris should go for a HARD BREXIT, he has given his word that the UK will be out of the EU on the  31st of October.
