Clinton will be lucky if she keeps her loss under 10 points.

LOL. I guess they think that she doesn’t have the “temperament” and is not “transparent” enough to be president. Plus, that screech will drive anyone crazy. Even DemocRATS. America’s “historical” first ex-wife president. Nag, nag, nag.

Did CBS do a poll of the dead? Democrats always destroy Republicans in those polls.

This is why I question the polls where the Dems are +7 or whatever in the sample size. I know that pollsters base it on state voter registrations and past presidential elections but this election will not be like 2008 or 2012 where there was excitement on the left for obama. That is not the case this year.

Just this poll alone, one can estimate the turnout differential of +11 for Trump. This would negate any advantage that the dems have in states based on voter registration numbers.

I’m hoping for cold, wintry weather for election day here in New England. The less motivated are the Hillary people, and they’ll be more likely to stay home if voting becomes something like work. The rest of us will shovel our way to the polling place to prevent her from getting back in the White House!

More than half of non-white people are likely voters in the poll and 48 percent said they don’t plan to vote. Nearly three-quarters of white people surveyed said they are likely to vote in November and just over a quarter said they don’t plan to cast a ballot.

WOW

The monster vote is a real thing and will shock even those of us who support him.

There was excitement across the board from the left in 2008, but not so much in 2012. Obama had small crowds in the last weeks before the election in 2012.

There were no polls of dems planning on staying away from voting in 2012. Unlike this year.

Romney had the same issue with crowd size at his rallies. They only got really big until the last 2 weeks of the election.

Hopefully the "dead" vote won't offset this.

Telephone polls are asinine enough as it is. Just imagine:

“Will you be voting in the November election for president?”
“No.”
“Who will you not be voting for?”
“I’ll never vote for a Clinton.”
“When did you never vote for Clinton before?”
“I’ve always never voted for a Clinton.”

[Thanks and a hat tip to Catch-22]
