    Just curious, do 'stupid', 'easily manipulated' and 'ignorant' people make claims that are wildly incorrect and easily disproven? I'm just asking because it seems that your memory is about the same standard as your commentary. The RCP average for Florida had Clinton at 28.9. She won by 31.1. I suppose you could argue they got it wrong....if you really wanted to double down on the 'ignorance'.

    Maybe you need to go back and 'think for yourself' some more until you remember which state it was that Hillary was 10% up in the polls & lost by 10%. I'm sure you can find one. I'm much more sure I can find a bunch of states where the polling was pretty damned accurate. Of course, I'm probably just one of those 'ignorant' people who thinks that properly analysed polling data can be quite accurate, so what would I know. :roll:

    Hillary doesn't whine like a spoiled child.

    Last I heard, until she showed up to answer 7 choreographed questions, she was living on the beach in Thailand.

    I remember you from years ago. Glad you're still kicking.

    Hillary? Really?

    I always say the number 1 thing to look at is consumer spending. If people have really recovered then they would be spending money. The fact that they still arent means they still have none and are just living off CC at worst or breaking even at best.

    Intentionally sabotaging a campaign is what the rest of us call "rigging". Did bernie win nh? Who won the nh delegates?

    Actually he did not lose the primary, he was compelled to drop out of the race. At the time he was less than 3 million behind Hillary in the popular vote. So what would have happened if the leaked DNC emails had come out before Sanders dropped out of the race, what might have happened? Would some of those super-delegates called foul and switched? We'll never know now, thanks to more criminal type activity.

    No, that would be preferable to the lying thieving, conniving, and pandering your for sale to the highest bidder hack does.

    No ... just creates an atmosphere that is inescapable where's she a
    victim. Of The Right Wing Conspiracy.Of Ken Starr.Even Monica Lewinsky.
    Whatever happened to her pledge when running for Daniel Patrick Moynihan's
    New York Senate seat to Upstate New Yorkers.Pledging 200,000 new jobs.
    She got elected and 5 years later those 200,ooo new pledged jobs amounted to a
    NET LOSS of over 30,ooo jobs.She is a Liar and incompetent boob.
    Even her boobs have to be covered over with her Mao type outfits.
    Talk about disgusting.

    I find it interesting to note people saying polling is accurate when it shows them good news and rigged when it does not.

    This is a very dubious yet fascinating comment.That Trump followers are
    mindless.Dennis Prager a week ago set out to prove how and why those in the
    Mainstream media seem to adore Obama.Because he is GLIB.
    Meaning at ease with his approach of superficial concern.Like the way
    Isis is a JV team. That his IRS has not a " smidgen of corruption " and Benghazi
    was all about some Video { even stating at the UN 6 times }. To be Glib
    as a leader of a country is in effect no different than being " Mindless ".
    I'd rather a group of followers act and seem " mindless " than a President.

    " Here the glib politician crying his legislative
    panaceas,and here the peripatetic Cheap-Jack holding aloft his quack
    cures for human ills. "

    Maybe so.But what is thoroughly baked into the Political Lanscape
    is the trend the New Democrat Party with Obama as Titular head
    demonstrate weekly,sometimes daily,even hourly.Meaning a crass
    concern for being honest and forthright.This is a demonstrable fact.
    Polling aside.

    ANYTHING Clinton does during this campaign, would not match the horror that Trump would be as actual President. :(

    Officially, he DID lose. Even he agrees with that.

    Anything other than that is speculation... which can surely be debated, even in perpetuity.

    Well, let's see: one could die of boredom from listening to Hillary day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year; or, have an exciting entertaining news cycle EVERYDAY!!

    Then explain Overflow crowds at every Trump event.
    With Hillary the word Overflow is never even hinted at.

    We're having a cycle where one candidate is hiding. Really. That's insane anyone is still fighting for her.

    This election is about nothing other than shoving Hillary down America's throat. Political rape.

    There is nothing genuine about it, probably not even him. But whether he's the anti-Christ or a ringer, he's getting my vote.

    For honest election principles, if nothing else.

    I have yet to hear from a single Democrat pol that Hillary is an inspiring
    or good speaker.They always refer back to Slick as the one who gave
    inspiring speeches.

    A lot of people that will vote for Hillary are voting against Trump. Not for Hillary. Don't confuse more excitement surrounding Trump with him actually earning more votes. many are unexcited by Hillary, but will be voting for her in November. This election will be far from close.

    Translation ... there is more interest in Hating Trump than Loving Hillary.
    I don't buy that.Not a lick.Because Trump was never Hated when he had his
    Apprentice show.Whereas Hillary has been despised ever since we saw
    her behave as First Lady.
    This MSM May try and foster the belief that Trump is hated where Hillary is
    seen as experienced.But then how much have We the People learned about this
    MSM. They are loathed about as much as members of Congress.

    Normally I would agree but this is a different election. The media is clearly in the tank for Hillary and she and the dnc have been proven corrupt. It is plausible the polling is rigged. As a matter of fact I predicted the polls would start being favorable for Hillary and it has came true. How did I predict that? Because corrupt people and organizations are predictable.
