If you drive anywhere in Pennsylvania, from the turnpike to the old US routes to the dirt roads connecting small towns like Hooversville with “bigger” small towns like Somerset, you might conclude that Donald Trump is ahead in this state by double digits.
Large signs, small signs, homemade signs, signs that wrap around barns, signs that go from one end of a fence to another dot the landscape with such frequency that, if you were playing the old-fashioned road-trip game of counting cows, you would hit 100 in just one small town like this one.

It’s as if people here have not turned on the television to hear pundits drone on and on about how badly Trump is losing in Pennsylvania.
It’s not just visual: In interview after interview in all corners of the state, I’ve found that Trump’s support across the ideological spectrum remains strong. Democrats, Republicans, independents, people who have not voted in presidential elections for years —They have not wavered in their support.

The Monster Vote
Nice writeup, SZ .. PA finally beats Filthadelphia this time !
The Monster Vote...The Hidden Vote...The Silent Majority Vote...
Whatever it is, the libs and the globalists are going to be in for a shock on Nov. 8th.
Thanks for posting Salena Zito’s article today. Very interesting report.
Aren’t there many thousands of dead democrats who vote in Philadelphia?
Liberals only speak to other liberals, so to them Trump is imploding.................
People out here are pissed off !
Yes there are, many thousands of dead voters.
Plus they will turn in a vote count far greater than the number of registered voters in the district.
And it’s so unfortunate that the supreme court is a 4:4 tie for a vote fraud case appeal... what a coincidence.
I’m thinking so too. Here’s a breakdown by state and county of the 2012 election: http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/results/president Click on “Counties” then click on PA. Look at NE PA. Those two blue counties — “Biden country” — were about 60/40 for Obama in 2012. I’ve seen polling that have them both 60/40 for Trump this time. The flip started with Obama’s war on coal, and Trump’s message really resonates there now.
About to read the piece. I like Salena Zito too. She’s a rare bird—a good reporter.
Pennsylvania for the last 20 years at least has been red in almost every county. But Philadelphia and Pittsburg have been blue. So the state goes blue.
How Pennsylvania will go this election will likely be told in the suburbs of Philadelphia and Pittsburg. Last election philadelphia was 100% for Obama. This time even 95% for hillary could turn the tide in that state.
Rush read much of this on the air today...
Yes. The best man on Trump’s team is Hillary Clinton.
As they say in all the financial advertisements...
* Past performance is not always an indicator of future results.
I drive a lot around town, downtown, uptown, and in university liberal areas...and suburbs. I have seen ONE Hitlery sign in Cincinnati. While that is an anecdote, nothing more, nothing I nothing less, I have seen hundreds of Trump signs.
I simply interpret that Trump voters view this as a broken glass election whereas Hitlery voters are not really enthusiastic...deep down, some of them have realized Thatcher’s principle that though they love their socialism, they have run dry of other’s money.
Broken glass means we will crawl over it to vote for Trump.
If we can pull 5-10% more out of d'Burgh over '12, it'll be a crushing defeat for that nazi bitch.
And you just KNOW that DJ's gonna get some the hitherto reliable black vote in Filthadelphia and environs.
At least some of them simply must be sick to death of what the Dhemmicrats have done to their communities.
Optimistic, while taking nothing for granted . . .
