All this assumes that Cankles holds onto her entire firewall. That’s looking like a tough challenge with each day.

“Teleprompter Trump”?

Eight years, and these jackasses have never seen Obama stumble around for a thought if hasn’t been projected for him?

...Arizona, Georgia, Utah, Texas or any other traditionally red state in the Republican column.

Because he does NOT need them. Any poll showing otherwise is a straight up lie. Always has been.

If enough citizens understood the basic idea underlying their "People's" Constitution, then the answer might be less in doubt as to whether they might vote for a presidential candidate whose liberal/progressive ideology would turn their Declaration's people-over-government ideas upside down in favor of coercive government control of individuals and freedom!

Photobucket

Our Constitution embodied a UNIQUE IDEA. Nothing like it had ever been done before. The power of the idea was in the recognition that people's rights are granted directly by the Creator - not by the state - and that the people, then, and only then, grant rights to government. The concept is so simple, yet so very fundamental and far-reaching.

CREATOR

People

Government

America's founders embraced a previously unheard-of political philosophy which held that people are "...endowed BY THEIR CREATOR with certain unalienable rights...." This was the statement of guiding principle for the new nation, and, as such, had to be translated into a concrete charter for government. The Constitution of The United States of America became that charter.

Other forms of government, past and present, rely on the state as the grantor of human rights. America's founders, however, believed that a government made up of imperfect people exercising power over other people should possess limited powers. Through their Constitution, they wished to "secure the blessings of liberty" for themselves and for posterity by limiting the powers of government. Through it, they delegated to government only those rights they wanted it to have, holding to themselves all powers not delegated by the Constitution. They even provided the means for controlling those powers they had granted to government.

This was the unique American idea. Many problems we face today result from a departure from this basic concept. Gradually, other "ideas" have influenced legislation which has reversed the roles and given government greater and greater power over individuals. Early generations of Americans pledged their lives to the cause of in­dividual freedom and limited government and warned, over and over again, that eternal vigilance would be required to preserve that freedom for posterity.

CNN doesn't like the current trend and wants to dampen our enthusiasm by calling it "precarious" while admitting he has a shot.

GO TRUMP-PENCE!!!

Lots and lots of ads on local Boston TV from both candidates.They're obviously not aimed at Massachusetts,or nearby parts of Connecticut or Rhode Island because The Former Twelfth Lady will carry all three by 60-40.They're aimed at New Hampshire's 4 EVs.The most heavily populated part of the state is basically a suburb of Boston and watches Boston TV and listens to Boston radio.

Trump needs FL, OH, NC, and IA plus the usual GOP states. The key is PA, which would put him over the 270.

Yes, theoretically there are other combinations of WI, MI, MN, CO, VA, but if Trump doesn’t get PA, those combinations are less probable.

If Trump picks up PA, VA, and NH early in the evening, there definitely could be a landslide,... except for the left coast loser states.

Just to review:

Using simplest path, Trump needs to flip 63 electoral votes over Romney in 2012.

The closest states where Obama edged Romney were:

(lost by % of vote) (EVs) EV total
Florida (<1%) (29) 29
Ohio (1.9) (18) 47
Virginia (3) (13) 60
Colorado (4.7) (9) 69

next five closest
Pennsylvania (5.2) (20) 20
Iowa (5.6) (6) 26
New Hampshire (5.8) (4) 30
Nevada (6.6) (6) 36
Wisconsin (6.7) (10) 46

This assumes the GOP keeps NC, which Romney won by a 2.2% margin.

Trump is currently leading in the polling averages for NV. He is trailing slightly in ME CD2. Assuming he wins all traditionally red states + OH, NC, FL, and IA, he has 259 EVs. Current RCP polling averages for the swing states are as follows:
+NV (6) 265 Trump +2.0
+ME CD2 (1) 266 Clinton +0.7
+CO (9) 275 Clinton +1.7
+NH (4) 279 Clinton +3.3
+PA (20) 299 Clinton +3.4
+VA (13) 312 Clinton +4.7

Based on the above, NV + CO looks like to easiest path.

http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/?ex_cid=2016-senate-forecast

Nate Silver has moved a lot of states into more competitive territory:

New Hampshire D +2.6
Colorado D +3.3
Pennsylvania D +3.7
Michigan D +4.2
Wisconsin D +4.3
Virginia D +4.6
Minnesota D +5.2
New Mexico D +5.9

A lot of those include polls from before the Hillary collapse got going, so several of those states are more competitive than indicated, even ignoring my lack of confidence in this year’s polls. I’ll believe a republican can win Pennsylvania when the Cubs win the World Series, but the others are in play - a long list.
