Joe Biden has lost ground among young and non-white voters. For the young the conflict in Israel and US policy surrounding it has been one of the reasons for the loss of support.

In its current form the republican party is a lost cause and has become an amalgamation of fringe causes and generalized stupidity. Nothing can be done now but vote against them and hope that disgruntled moderate conservatives take their party back or form a new one.

If one watches interviews with people on the street the heart sinks that there is hope for some people's rehabilitation. The reality is that a segment of the population is either incapable or disinterested in taking in information that may change their mindset. You must simply hope that there are more informed voters out there to counteract them.

Nevertheless we have reached a point globally where intelligent and well-crafted policy is more able to be twisted through malfeasance. Established media networks like Rupert Murdoch's can more readily sow doubt in the minds of gullible voters and encourage them to vote against their own interests to help the causes of the powerful.
