John Casey, being non-committal, not overly optimistic, superstitious to a fault, and less than specific about what will happen on November 3.And this waffling, I suspect is due to several reasons.
It’s no secret that most of the media, including broadcasters, journalists, special contributors, expert analysts and everyone else with a brain, wants Donald Trump to lose so that democracy wins; therefore, to admit that Biden will win big, or say that Trump has no chance does two things.
It discourages more Democrats from voting since people will assume Biden will win anyway, and deplete ratings and click-throughs because who will turn into watch, or read about an election, if the result is a foregone conclusion?This year is different.
