i have been talking to strategists and pollsters from both parties today to try to get a sense and share with you what they think the lay of the land is right now. allow me to be your guide as we take a look at what they think is going on out there. because earlier this month, you might remember, we told you how president biden s pollster coined this election head winds versus head cases. the head winds in his view, challenging the democrats. majority disapproval of president biden, high inflation, possible recession among other fact force. the head cases hindering republicans, what republican senate leader mitch mcconnell referred to as candidate quality issues. that s republican candidates with limited appeal or various scandals, creating challenges in races that theoretically they should be running away with. but those head wind, they teem seem to be achanging and getting stronger and the politicos who whom i spoke to today agree now
