As Trump inevitably climbs in the national polls, more and more states will turn from blue to purple to red.

It’s gonna take a lot of vote fraud to pull this out for Hillary.

Hillary wanted a running mate who would look small and unaccomplished next to her. Kaine fit the bill.

If the pollsters had asked people to name Kaine’s accomplishments as Virginia’s senator, without any sort of prompting, how many would have been able to answer at all?

Trump needs to figure out a way to get out the vote in Virginia’s hinterlands, where the Republican live (hint we’re not in the urban ghettoes). The VA GOP will be no help in that.

If Hillary loses Virginia, Kaine will be the second guy to get his body dumped in Ft. Marcy Park.

The thing I remember most about Kaine as Governor is that he closed all the interstate rest areas in Virginia to save money. Turned out to be a very unpopular move.

If VA is in play, this could be an amazing November...

Just saw a poll out today with Trump ahead in Ohio. The Trump Train is gaining speed with Hillary tied down across the tracks and about to get ran over.

There’s no way that Johnson will get 19% of the vote on election day. A lot of folks saying they will vote for him just don’t like either Trump or Hillary but will hold their nose and vote for one of them when push comes to shove. I’m betting a lot more will split to Trump, though, as undecideds usually break for the challenger and that’s how Trump is viewed in this race.

He was out in western Va a couple of weeks ago. Big crowds I believe were reported, probably a revisit is a good idea.

Pence seems to be a much better campaigner than Kaine, but will the American people see it that way?

He also started taxpayer-funded expensive babysitting called pre-K.

That’s the only way she wins.

Trump wants to win so big they can’t cheat.

If it's close, it will inevitably be a Hillary win, because they will do enough vote fraud to get her over the top.

But if Trump is ahead ENOUGH that they will not be able to pull off enough fraud, then it will be a big win for Trump, because they will just not bother to do their fraud if it won't help.
