Let's hope so!!!
But, I can actually see reasons for optimism in the political swing of the polls today. In the latest Washington Post/A.B.C. News poll Obama's "Legacy" was roundly defeated when the poll asked if the people thought America was going in the "right direction", or not. 68% said "no", while, something like 45% said yes! That's not a Fox News poll that can be suspected of being heavily weighted to Republicans opinions; that's a poll taken for the liberal, "mainstream" media, which is usually weighted for liberal opinions!
Plus, Fox News ran a clip of last night's speech of the Potus, proclaiming that Hillary would be the best option for continuing his "legacy". They ran a simultaneous graph of listeners' reactions, (though I don't understand how this is recorded). Republican listeners were as negative on this point, as could be expected, and liberals were understandably positive on this point. But, unexpectedly, independents (who tend to be more liberal, than conservative on most issues) were fairly negative in their reaction, too! If this is a deeply-felt-enough reaction to the Potus's legacy, we could very well have a Republican victory in November! Again, I'm not overjoyed at the prospect of a Donald Trump presidency, but at least we can get rid of those idiots in the Democratic Administration, for a few years! Plus, Trump has been trying to sound conservative in order to curry favor with the conservative wing of the Republican Party. If he is elected he will be bound to live up to his promises, if he wants to keep the conservatives' support, even if he is insincere about it. Especially if he wants to get re-elected.
So, is the American voter actually waking up to the disaster of the Obama Administration, or am I reading too much into all this??? We have been trending so liberal for so many years that it's hard for me to believe it all, now. Perhaps the threat of international terrorism has caused America to finally "wake up" to the risk we run by allowing such liberal fools as Obama, Clinton, and Kerry to run the whole show, to say nothing of Bernie! If so, then I suspect there are a lot of believing Christians who are desperately crying out to God, to return this nation to some sense of sanity, which only He can do! And, He can do it, even over Trump's ego, but won't over Obama's arrogance! May God spare us any more of that!!!
Also, in a side issue, it seems that the recent turmoil in the Democratic Convention could work in the Republicans' favor. As long as Hillary got nominated, and Sanders is trying to swallow his pride and support her, I suspect that she can count on her support from women voters, and the minority vote (including the non American voters, of the illegal immigrants, however many times they are allowed to vote!) but the youth vote, and all the other disgruntled voters, who liked Bernie, probably will not vote for her! That's good news for Trump, even if he can't get them to vote for him. If they simply stay home on election day, in spite of Bernie's vocal support, we could have a dramatic turn-around in the White House, this year! And God knows we desperately need one!!!
