As we told you yesterday, a fresh New York Times/Siena College poll has caught the attention of the Democrats, and not in a good way for them: 

BREAKING: New York Times/Siena College poll has Trump leading nationally 48% to 47%.

Harris is running way behind the past Two Democrat Nominees.

In Sept 2016, The NYT poll had Clinton +2

In Sept 2020, The NYT poll had Biden +8

This poll is very bad news for Harris.

Combine that with Nate Silver's election and swing state forecasts which keeps the bad news coming for the Democrats:

Each new Nate Silver forecast is better news for the Trump campaign and indicate the Harris-Walz honeymoon is over, and the "joy" shtick isn't flying. 

It's all too much for Bette Midler, who is singing the blues and sensing a conspiracy: 

Who bought #NateSilver and how much did he go for?

LOL!

It can't possibly be that Harris' "run out the clock" strategy without having serious one-on-one interviews or press conferences is turning off voters.

Bette is mad that Kamala August has ended and the reality of her unpopularity is setting in.

That's far more likely to be what's going on here.
