Group speak fascinates me. A couple years ago, receipts, meaning evidence, was solely a black term. Now it permeates every political commentary. Organically, post debate, journalists universally referred to Trump as taking the bait. Indeed he did, with the resulting cat and dog story that has morphed into a million memes.
But the most important moment may have been the Ukraine discussion because it may have created another group of single issue voters. Single issue voting is emotional. For many on both sides, abortion is an emotional issue which subsumes all other considerations. Gun regulation is another such issue. Conversely, the economy/inflation is the most important issue, but not one that blocks out all other considerations.
As I covered in a prior blog, "Pole Dancing," Ukraine/Nato/Putin, can be an over powering topic. Danger to the homeland is emotional. As Kamala explained, weakening NATO, and conceding Ukraine to Russia, is an imminent threat to Poland. Polish Americans are a huge, up for grabs, voting block in Michigan, Wisconsin, and, most importantly, Pennsylvania.
If Kamala can win upwards of 80% of the Polish American vote the blue wall will encapsulate her victory.
