No, Biden is not on the ballot. But, his policies are.
And, the American voters don't want what he is selling. They have seen this Democratic Congress vote in lock-step with what Biden wants (except for Manchin and on occasion, Sinema). They want a Congress that will put a halt to his spending and policies that are squeezing the middle and lower classes.
Gas prices are only one measure of this oncoming recession. They have dropped, but are still nearly $2/gallon more than when he took office. And, diesel prices are still high. And, you know what runs on diesel? Those trucks that deliver the goods that people buy. And, the costs for that diesel is passed on in the way of higher prices at the register.

I read your post as someone desperate to convince themselves that Democrats are going to remain in power after November. I think you are very wrong... especially when it comes to Pelosi. I will be thrilled to see her go.
The Senate is much closer, but don't be surprised if you are looking a Leader McConnell again.



Phew

I drove through a pennsyltucky town named Worthington (not far from Pittsburgh) a couple weeks ago

They had a large electronic sign on the main drag that had:
-picture of Joe with the message "Enemy of the United States"
-next picture was of grocery shelves that said "Bare Shelves Biden"
-3rd was a picture of a fetus that said "Democrats, don't kill me"
-Last but certainly not least "White is Beautiful"

I was seriously worried about running into a Klan rally. I got the hell out of that backwater as fast as I possibly could.

This is the nonsense we are fighting against in Trump Country.


Listen, we can’t take anything for granted but here’s the thing about PA:

You aren’t going to find a more hateful, deplorable group of people than the fascist republicans of PA. Truly. They put the Deep South to shame w their racism and bigotry. Most disgusting people Ive ever met.

BUT. They are a numerical minority of the state. There are many normal people who can dilute them. And we can easily win both of these races…esp bc the Republicans elected two of the most POS candidates they could find. Bc they really are dumb AF. But yea, we still have to work bc the deplorables are dedicated to their evil.

Read the comments on this National Review piece about Oz tanking in polls and being a disappointing candidate. It's Rs talking to themselves. They sound mad, they sound sad, they sound p***ed at Trump

https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/dr-oz-losing-ground-since-winning-the-pennsylvania-gop-senate-primary/

It's interesting to hear what they say when it's just them. I know NR isn't a Trumpy publication but it's a solidly R pub.

Democrats are way more fired up to vote.

“Sixty-four percent of Democrats say the court's action makes them more likely to vote in November, potentially a crucial factor in midterm elections that traditionally have low turnout. That's more than double the 29% of Democrats who expressed that view in a USA TODAY/Suffolk survey taken in June after a draft of the landmark decision was leaked. […] In contrast, 75% of Republicans say it has had no effect; 21% say it makes them more likely to vote.”

The comments on that article are absolutely precious and prove that the misogynist culture warriors have no idea how much people hate their forced birth politics, and the male commenters especially have no frigging clue that abortion is an economic issue as much as it’s a human rights issue. It’s going to shock the vast amounts of regressive men who are uninvolved in their children’s lives, but having children is really expensive and unlike gas prices and other prices that come and go, kids just get more expensive.

Given MD hasn’t even finished counting a week later, I expect a massive delay in counting/results in the fall from swing states.

Oh Florida...
https://floridapolitics.com/archives/538684-poll-shows-marco-rubio-leading-val-demings-but-finds-momentum-for-the-democrat/
Sen. Marco Rubio leads Democratic challenger Val Demings 50% to 42%, according to a poll from Center Street. But pollsters say there is still room for the race to change before Election Day.

“Marco’s still the favorite, but what’s interesting is that he’s sort of stalled out,” said Center Street Co-Founder Jacob Perry. “He has a motivated base of voters locked in, but he’s not making any new pitch to draw in new voters.”

The poll found Rubio at 50% among likely voters, but when polling all Florida voters, the race was closer, with Rubio at 45% and Demings at 40%.

The results when compared to the centrist organization’s last poll in March also showed Demings with the momentum, with a 13% swing in her favor among registered voters.

“The other issue is that there’s no constituency that’s particularly excited about Rubio,” Perry said. “Democrats obviously don’t like him, but neither do Trump Republicans. Val outraised him two to one, but also outspent him, and that spending really paid off in building her Awareness numbers.”
