Once again JVL goes for the "BIG SCARE". A reality check.....

White Christian Nationalism is a loser. Probably today, but certainly in the long run. Just today I saw a Pew polling analysis that predicts in 50 years only half of Americans will identify as Christian. (And that was the high end) Today it is only 64%, down from the low 90's just 30 years ago.

As we all know, the US in heading for a minority majority society in the not too distant future. Mastriano's base is primarily old, white and rural. Groups that are shrinking. Furthermore, these groups would have overwhelming voted for the candidate with the "R" next to the name regardless of who it was.

I would turn JVL's argument on its head. At 41%, Mastriano is at his high water mark. He is only holding onto the hard core Republicans. He is getting no Dem support and little of the Indy vote. He is cruising for a blowout loss, not on the edge of being a mythical giant sea creature.
