Panel discusses personal attacks in political primaries (Part 4)

Messiest primaries I've ever seen. And we got Barack Obama after it. So I'm for it. You know, I just want to make sure. In Michigan especially, the attacks were so personal and so hideous on Abdul. Every day they called him a terrorist or a jihadist. It was just. It was. It was so ugly. So my. My wish going forward is that we can at least keep it a lot less personal, because I do think we forget that some of these candidates are actually people. And when you're spending hundreds of millions of dollars to attack them, it like, it does something. So I just. If we can keep it focused on policy and have a lively discussion, I think we'll be better at the end of the day. Yeah, I completely agree with that. I think, like, one of the big things I think people are going to have to try to avoid is just because you disagree on an issue, that you are therefore corrupt for your position. Like you can have. You can disagree on how you're going to do universal health care. And it does it. If you believe one thing, you're not in the pocket of this person or the other person. I think that's a very important thing. I think the thing that people are most concerned about concerns me is whether we end up like what the 2019 campaign primary was not nasty mostly at all. I mean, the things people fought over were insanely stupid. Like whether you thought Elon Musk should be banned from Twitter or all those other things. But the. But it was the bidding. The bidding each other into these very unpopular positions that actually didn't come back to haunt us for another four years. So that, I think that's the big thing. Carlos, last question. I can't let you off the stage without having to defend the entire polling industry. If we. If. If this had been a disappointing night, we would all be. This entire panel would have been why the polls were wrong. Yeah. Yet they were still wrong. They were. And so I'm sure your polls were perfect. But just say a little bit about, like, how you're thinking about what we need to do to get to more accurate numbers. It's just cooler when they underestimate us in the other side. But they're still wrong. The polls are wrong. We can say that polls underestimated Democrats in every Senate seat except Nebraska. The average of generic ballot was D above 9. The result was D plus 14. So, yeah. Wow. Right? So, yeah, individual poll stirs. Polls were good. The forecasts were good. Actually, if you judge them as.
