“#Media<\/a> has a meltdown as Biden fails to deliver a landslide<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Ever sat next to somebody who\u2019s afraid to fly? That combination of freaking out, embarrassment and asking when the drinks cart would come around again was what we all saw in the lefty telepundit class last night.<\/p>\n

I refer you to the \u201cnews<\/a> channel\u201d cum ongoing therapy session known as MSNBC. All night long, the hosts made smiley little jokes, teeth gritted and eyes wild, about their need to self-medicate. After 1 a.m., Brian Williams introduced former Obama flack Robert Gibbs with the words, \u201cWondering how much closer he is to the liquor cabinet.\u201d I half expected Brian to open up a six-pack of PBR on the air.<\/p>\n

Nicolle Wallace and Joy Reid giggled and chatted about \u201cmeditation app<\/a>s\u201d while telling each other, \u201cYou breathe in, you breathe out\u2026\u201d Remember when folks like David Brinkley and Walter Cronkite were renowned for their ability to maintain their composure? The day President Kennedy was assassinated, all Cronkite did was take off his glasses and rub his eyes a little as he dryly recited the facts.<\/p>\n

Last night, MSNBC\u2019s hyperventilating hosts had former Bill Clinton swami James Carville on for a chat and immediately asked him what kind of whiskey he intended to guzzle. \u201cPut away the razor blades and put the Ambien back in the cabinet, we\u2019re gonna be fine,\u201d Carville said, citing unnamed \u201cquants\u201d who told him Joe Biden would pull out the victory.<\/p>\n

Quants? Are those anything like \u201cpollsters,\u201d i.e. the people told us Joe Biden was going to cruise to victory with 350 or so electoral votes? Carville concluded his segment by holding up a gigantic bottle of Champagne and promising us he would indeed drink it, but maybe not till the end of the week.<\/p>\n

Claire McCaskill, the former Missouri senator who lost her seat in 2018 after going batspit crazy about opposing everything Donald Trump did, right down to spastically trying to block him from making routine cabinet picks, demonstrating that she had no clue about Trump\u2019s vast popularity in her state, admitted that Democrats had managed to talk themselves into believing Trump is a lot less popular than he is.<\/p>\n

As Jake Tapper memorably put in on CNN, \u201cYou can\u2019t get high on your own supply.\u201d That supply was the media-polling complex, an echo chamber in which professional Democrats and their friends who rule the culture kept singing chorus after chorus of, \u201cWe Are the Champions\u201d before the game<\/a> even started.<\/p>\n

Pollsters who have to dial four or five or even ten people just to get one person to answer their questions have to do a lot of guesswork when it comes to the matter of who is actually going to show up at the polling places, though they call their guesswork \u201cscience<\/a>.\u201d Nobody better ask these guys to fly a plane; with their record, a flight to London would have a 47 percent chance of winding up in Greenland.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were giddy because the map felt like it was expanding,\u201d McCaskill sheepishly admitted. \u201cIt looked like all kinds of different paths that we could get there.\u201d Meaning: the Democrats actually thought they were going to capture Florida. Hey, the pollsters told them that, and pollsters never get anything wrong when it comes to Donald J. Trump, do they?<\/p>\n

An hour or so after Wallace darkly warned viewers that Trump might bring in a shadowy cabal of co-conspirators known as \u201clawyers\u201d to try to sort out the mess in Pennsylvania in his favor, everybody on MSNBC suddenly remembered that Democrats can also hire lawyers. This tends to undercut the usual argument that Trump has turned the US in 1930s Germany. \u201cWe gotta support our lawyers out there, we got some fine attorneys,\u201d Carville vowed. You don\u2019t say?<\/p>\n

Still, Republican turncoat and MSNBC guest Michael Steele could scarcely believe members of his party might be unwilling to let the Democrats massage ballots to their liking. \u201cThey\u2019ve lined the lawyers to go up and attack the process,\u201d Steele said, using \u201cwhatever tactic they can take.\u201d Sorry, Dems, but there are laws governing which ballots qualify and which ones don\u2019t. \u201cCount every vote\u201d? Nope. Count every lawful vote. Or is it yet another example of Trump\u2019s \u201cfascism\u201d that he plans to bring in lawyers to make sure the law is being followed?\n <\/p><\/div>\n
