The authors says it is the MOST deceptive sign in politics, large crowds. Really? Apparently the left knows something everyone else doesn't know, someone is going to do something to make sure the actual votes don't count. Hillary is going to cheat to win this election...somehow.

The number of such crowds means something too. This isn’t onesie twosie stuff.

Small crowds.
Few lawn signs.
No press conferences.
Tainted polls show a tie (at best)
Trump has barely started his ads.
The debates still lie ahead.
More wikileaks are coming.
Her health isn’t getting any better.
Yeah, I’d say Hillary has this one all sewn up!

Anybody with knowledge of Obama Crowds vs McCain Crowds vs Romney Crowds should post what they know.
We may be kidding ourselves.
We may be dead right.
It would be nice to know.

Crowds and polls and political science can give us signs.
The biggest sign of all, if it can be seen, is the sign of divine intervention, and this appears more and more plausible. Donald has survived an array of gaffes that would have floored candidates with mere surface appeal.

I had a friend who lamented she couldn’t get a ticket to see Obama in 2012, in Columbus, Ohio. The pictures from the event showed a half full venue. I have always been concerned about the manipulation then, as we thought Romney was doing well with his large crowds.

Folks.....just remember when CNN tells you the “Trump” crowds at rallies & political events do not matter all, just keep in mind, that baseball teams that are in the running for the World Series, draw massive fan crowds, and those that don’t, attract few supporters & decent revevue flow.. Likewise football or, any other sport.
Actually CNN, should realize this truth quite easily. Their viewer support is dropping like a weighed anchor thrown into the deep sea. LMAO!!!
Go Donald J. Trump!!!

Romney only had few large crowds, on occasion, and he never campaigned as hard as DJT does, or held as many political rallies as DJT does also. Infact, the last month of the campaign, Romney hardly did any real campaigning. I guess he was sleeping in his garage!!!

Historically, dems get 90% of the blavk vote. Obama got over 95% of the black vote. Hillary won’t get that % at all. In fact, some poll internals are showing Trump in getting 20% and 40% of the black and hispanic votes. Throw a +20% advantage that Trump has with independents, I would say that this is very bad news to the dems.

In Presidential elections, size doesn't always matterWell, duh...
With the combination of a rigged system, the IRS and other fedgov departments routinely breaking the law, and wholesale ballot-box stuffing by big-city Democrat political machines, of course it doesn't matter...

Democrats are getting etiolated, GOP is growing in strength. More and more “minorities” will vote the strong horse.

This is why Trump is raising as much enthusiasm as he can nationwide. If it is not close, they cannot cheat.
