call themselves conservative and will likely dominate his way through the rest of the primaries despite what nikki haley does or does not do. but november 5th, 2024, is not a primary race and a candidate cannot rely on the strength of their base alone, and that is where it is helpful to read between the lines of last night s vote. unlike iowa, which is a lock for the gop, new hampshire s electorate is swingy trump lost moderates to haley, two lost college graduates to haley, and three, lost independents to haley, it is a problem, especially when 68% of independents flat out said they will not vote for him. and 42% of primary voters say they don t think someone convicted of a crime would be fit to be president, if that happens to donald trump. a reminder, for all we talk about the general election, what we really mean is the general election in six specific states. arizona, nevada, georgia, michigan, wisconsin, and pennsylvania. you see them there. so let us untangle what we k
lost the ability to inspire confidence in the american people here? the entire country is show-me state. they have heard for some time from the very beginning before the stimulus plan, that the stimulus plan would keep unemployment under a certain amount, grow the economy this amount. they ve heard a lot of things that didn t happen, whether it was because the economy was worse than anyone thought it was, whether it was because it was the wrong remedy or not enough remedy, whatever the reason is the american people are now skeptical that washington, including president obama, can do much to change things. i think that s what s reflected in the polls. everybody wants to see it before they believe it. in those same polls from cnn/orc say three in ten people feel they are better off today than they were ten years ago. we know congress has a lower approval rating than the president. these are one national polls. there s just one national election. if the economy doesn t impro
aircraft, that p-51. this is what ntsb officials had to say just a little while ago. take a look. for new information, first of all, there had been reports about a mayday from the pilot. thus far, our investigators have found no information of a mayday call from the pilot. next, the investigators have found that the accident aircraft was equipped with a video camera, facing outward. they have also found camera fragments at the wreckage site. and among the wreckage site, they have found multiple memory cards that could have come from the camera. reporter: so, don, that s what we know at this point. all of that information is going to be shipped off to the ntsb lab in washington. we should tell you that this would have been the very last day for these races. normally, there would be thousands of people out here. of course, a huge economic loss for reno, the fact that they had to cancel the weekend, the economic loss is going to be in the tens of millions of dollars. they, o
