Young voters to Clinton: We can't stand you
McClatchy DC ^ | September 22, 2016 | David Lightman

Students all over Penn State University agree on this much about Hillary Clinton: "She’s slimy," said Anay Pope.

And Pope, 25, is a Clinton supporter. For the moment.

Clinton’s poll numbers are sagging, and the biggest reason is that she’s plunging among young voters. A Quinnipiac University poll this month found that in a four-way race, Clinton is up 5 points nationally with 18- to 34-year-old voters, down from a 24-point lead just a month before.

Just days ahead of the first debate Monday and less than two months before voting ends, she faces two challenges: Many young voters are taking serious looks at Donald Trump as well as Libertarian Gary Johnson and the Green Party’s Jill Stein. And many are debating whether they even want to vote this year.

“And many are debating whether they even want to vote this year.”

That is the operative phrase. They will just stay home. Sickery is not going to turn out the base.

The youth of today are used to voting with their i-phones...they will NOT stand in line for this haggard old woman.

They should tell their troubles to a nice cuddly Islamist. They give GREAT hugs! /s;)

I trade stocks & options and I really like listening to Bloomberg radio....it is uncanny how I will get an idea for a trade and blammo, they start talking about it or at that very moment, it seems, they have a guest on who is talking about the topic I am thinking of.

But OMG, they are brazenly and virulently against Trump and if you think CNN has a shred of subtlety in their clearly biased reporting, you ain’t heard nothing. There is no smear Bloomberg will not use. None. And every voice they have, they pile on. It’s amazing.

Today I talked to a clerk in a convenience store. He had long, dirty looking hair, a tattoo on his neck and looked like one of Watter’s subjects. I was surprised how knowledgeable he was and how much he detested Hitlery. He told me he and most of his friends are for Trump.

I shook his hand.

But some are still planning to vote for her anyway. Hope they will come to their senses before election day.

Can’t see Bernie people going for Clinton, not after what she pulled on them.
