For those who watch The 5 on FOX Information, that Dana Perino doesn’t normally exit on a limb to make political predictions. She is more likely to observe conventional polling and play her playing cards very near her chest.
That isn’t what she did right now.
Perino was speaking in regards to the horrible optics for Democrats with the federal government shutdown when she all of the sudden predicted that Democrats are going to lose BOTH of the upcoming gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey.
“What headline would you like on the finish of right now? President Trump needs 25 headlines every single day and it really works for them, it will get complicated for me overlaying this as a result of it’s like strolling right into a room filled with disco balls, like the place do we glance subsequent? As a result of there’s so many issues which are occurring.
However the Democrats actually have one singular focus, it’s how do they win the midterms and the way do they arrive again in 2028?
However we’ve already seen the rinse and repeat. In the event that they’re going to unexpectedly, instantly now within the first time period, first 12 months within the second time period, begin calling JD Vance principally Hitler, so we all know that you simply’re by no means gonna transfer on from Trump, as a result of it doesn’t matter who it’s – Jeb Bush might come again and attempt to run for president and they might name him Hitler and attempt to tie him to Trump as a result of that’s what they assume is their ticket to journey when it actually has been their ticket to nowhere.
And that’s why they’re not gonna win. And I don’t assume they’re gonna win both of those gubernatorial races within the subsequent two weeks.”

Dana might very properly be proper. The polls in each races have tightened in current weeks and are principally neck and neck. And as everyone knows, polls are inclined to favor Democrats.
It’s all going to come back all the way down to end up. Which facet can end up essentially the most voters to make sure victory. For Republicans, it nearly must be a repeat of 2024. It must be too huge to rig.
