RUSH: With the midterms around the corner, the New York Times is starting to hedge their bets. They\u2019re preparing liberals for a possible letdown.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, a Times headline asked: What Could Hold Back a Democrat Blue Wave?<\/p>\n

They listed a bunch of \u201csober reality checks\u201d that might help Republicans reduce their losses, or maybe keep their House majority.<\/p>\n

The biggest \u201dsober reality\u201d to the New York Times? Life is pretty darn good in flyover country. The unemployment number is the lowest in 50 years. Consumer confidence is \u201cspilling over,\u201d says the Times, for both businesses and consumers. The economy is growing faster than it has in years.<\/p>\n

\"\"You\u2019d think they would be celebrating. But to the New York Times and the Democrats, a great economy is a \u201csober reality.\u201d And a problem.<\/p>\n

On top of that, the Times lists two more sober realities: voter reaction to the attack on Justice Kavanaugh, and thousands of migrants mobbing our southern border.<\/p>\n

Bottom line: the only blue wave Democrats might see is the wave that causes their wipeout! At least that is their fear. So was there ever a really a blue wave in the first place or was it all manufactured and now reality is crashing ashore?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
