You're right. I wouldn't have bet on the outcome.
But on the other hand I wouldn't have gone all in on this like the DNC did.
Seriously, if I were calling the shots for the DNC:
I wouldn't have made sure every mainstream media outlet ran stories featuring polls that had been doctored to show my candidate ahead by 7 points just four days out when in fact he wasn't.
I wouldn't have made sure every mainstream media outlet ran stories touting the election as a referendum against the Trump presidency.
I wouldn't have made sure those same stories touted this as the most important election in recent history.
And I absolutely wouldn't have wanted Colbert to talk about the election during filming of yesterday's show as if we had won -- several hours before the results were known.
To my way of thinking -- all of this -- everything in the DNC playbook that was done --
Way too much over the top.
I think it may have backfired.
People have a way of resisting once they realize they're being force fed.
