One Clinton supporter is bugging all my friends to do something
Hollywood Democrats are getting nervous about recent polls that show the race between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump tightening.
Im freaked out, David Schneiderman, co-owner and founder of Seismic Productions and prominent Clinton supporter, told TheWrap. I now post stuff on Facebook every day bugging all my friends to do something. No one wants to wake up to Donald Trump on November 8.
A Tuesday CNN/ORC poll showing Trump leading Clinton in a head-to-head match for the first time in six weeks caught some of Clintons staunchest industry supporters and donors by surprise. It is one of the big five polls widely considered the most reliable though some journalists questioned its methodology.
Clinton enjoyed a significant lead in both national and key swing state polls for weeks after her smooth Democratic National Convention. Trump, meanwhile, was swarmed with negative stories about his fight with a Gold Star family and a $25,000 donation to Florida State Attorney General Pam Bondi as her office considered a lawsuit against Trump University. (She decided not to sue, but denies any impropriety).
In recent weeks, Clinton has faced tough questions about whether she gave preferential treatment to Clinton Foundation donors during her time as secretary of state. And her email scandal wont go away.
Clinton is still up in most polls, but Trump is gaining. Clintons lead in the polls has shrunk to an average of 3.3 points, according to a RealClearPolitics, down from a peak of 7.9 points a month ago.
You just never know, Schneiderman said, acknowledging that the emails are a problem.
But if the polls are right, Clinton supporters say, that may not be such a bad thing.
Its just going to get some people to pay more attention, L.A.-based Democratic strategist and Clinton supporter Donna Bojarsky told TheWrap. It doesnt change the fundamentals of the race, but, yes, no one should take anything for granted.
Bojarsky said August fundraising numbers are a good indication that Clinton is on the right track. Clinton smashed her own fundraising record by raising a whopping $143 million last month, compared to Trumps $90 million.
Fundraising is a kind of voting, Bojarsky said. If someone is raising a ton of money, its a sign of enthusiasm.
Clintons supporters also note that shes also leading in key swing states and has even managed to put some historically red states into play. A 50-state Washington Post-SurveyMonkey poll, released Tuesday, showed Trump struggling in states like Arizona and Georgia and even Texas, where hes in a virtual dead heat with Clinton. That will help her in the contest for Electoral College votes, the only race that truly matters.
Still, the fact that Trump is still within striking distance of Clinton is enough to rattle some Democrats.
Im holding my breath, Shneiderman said. As always.
You and your friends can go up to Griffith Park and howl at the moon. Can't hurt.
I do.
God what a bunch of ninnymuggins.
LOL I love liberal hysteria..good, if Donald Trump wins maybe they will do us all a favor and kill themselves I know I wouldnt shed a tear..or they can leave the country, for real this time not like they promised in 2000 when Bush was elected..not like I expect them to leave all their precious millions behind and their mega mansions with walls surrounding them
No one wants to wake up to Donald Trump on November 8.
I do.
And so do I, and all of my close personal friends.
There is not, and never was, a single traditionally red state in play... I know some laughable polls briefly claimed Hillary had a lead in GA, but these people are just dillusional if they think Hillary will be turning any red states blue.
Put some ice on that, Dave.
Wow, David. Keep up the good work.
I’m sure glad the “OMG: The Polls!!!! Panic” has died down on FR.
Let the Libs enjoy it for a while. Hopefully all the way through the end.
On November 9, 2016, the town that was once known as ‘Hollywood’ is completely empty...the people have left for other countries to live in...they still have their houses, furniture and other things, cars, boats, yachts but their clothing and themselves are gone...
HURRAH FOR HOLLYWOOD!!!
DONALD J. TRUMP AND MICHAEL PENCE ARE THE PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNTIED STATES OF AMERICA!!!
Good, I hope they all stroke out too.
If its between Trump and Hillarious, I will take Trump.
Im holding my breath, Shneiderman said.
Does that cause one to cough,cough,cough,cough,——?
Wake up to Trump on Nov. 8. What an idiot. Perhaps Jan 20?
Hollyweird is all wee wee’d up. Pfft...what else is new?
She looks really sick. Here is what some in Hollywood recently said to her:

“maybe they will do us all a favor and kill themselves”
I hope so. We put up with 8 years of the Jarjar and Chewbacca show at the White Hut and now I want my pound of flesh.
One Clinton supporter is “buggering all my friends”.........
