Trump will need a double-digit advantage going into election night to overcome all the cheating that will be done by the Dems...and the Gops.

The polling adjusts the party percentages to do that already, which is why some of them are reasonably accurate on election day. Even when Trump was not my choice, I had always said he would be able to beat Hillary Clinton, and it wouldn't be particularly close.

If they try to pull a switcheroo and put in a Biden or an Evan Bayh or a Bernie Sanders or a whomever, Trump will appeal (with good reasons) to the many who are starting to think that a powerful and amorphous "THEY" will do whatever "THEY" can just to not have Trump.

You are right on any “switcheroo.” It would fuel even more Dem Trump support/staying at home.

And there can be no magic GWBush DUI revelations because they shot their wad already. This is gonna be fun, especially considering a) Trump’s appointment of the big pro-life guy to his staff, and b) Trump’s wish-list of potential USSC judges.

I'm wondering if the dems might have put themselves in an impossible situation. The nomination is hillary's, but it will seem rigged to very angry Sanders supporters. It's hard to believe that even most of them will vote for hillary, if they vote at all. If the dem elite maneuver hillary dropping out, what do they do? Sanders supporters wouldn't accept a "plan B" Biden or whomever, and I don't blame them. Run with Bernie, and Trump is going to have FUN with Sanders' group associations during and for a few years after college. Besides that, the nevertrumpistas are going to do what at that point?

Ohmygosh, what a tangled web they weave. Philly is gonna' be one heck of a block party!
