Frank Luntz: Dems Read Too Much into the Results of the Wisc. Special Election

‘In the end, we‘re still an evenly divided country’

EXCERPT:

LUNTZ: "I think the Democrats read too much into it saying, 'A-ha, we found the secret sauce. We‘re going to change things.' And Republicans thinking that Florida, winning both those House seats, the fact is, they won those seats with a reduced margin. I‘ve never seen anyone like Donald Trump able to turn out votes when he‘s on the ballot, but he‘s not been nearly as successful when he provides support for candidates, but his name doesn‘t appear. And in the end, we‘re still an evenly divided country. We‘re still a polarized and angry country. And the reason why I appreciate this discussion is that it‘s a chance to say precisely the agenda and the policies have support, the communication and the execution do not. So I don‘t know, if you‘re Democrat or Republican, you‘re going to be mad at this analysis, but this is the way things are. And we should start to pursue the truth rather than pursue some sort of partisan gain."
