Caddell is an old-time Dem - socially liberal, but a patriot. Oh, and he believes in honesty and decency...a rare creature, these days, to be sure.

I think that he secretly wants Trump, that he cannot stand Hillary, but he feels that he can’t say that in public (maybe it’d embarrass his former boss (Carter) who is still (regrettably) alive. I do know that he’s made some pretty pro-Trump noises over the last year.

I think that there will be a Brexit-type shock, that this election will turn out a lot like 1980. Reagan was allegedly behind by about 7 points in late October, and ended up crushing Carter. There wasn’t a big move, it was already baked into the cake but the media was trying to tamp down the Reagan electorate (sound familiar?). I’m feeling better about Trump winning it now, and the polls should begin to reflect a tighter race or a Trump lead soon, as some pollsters understand that there is a next time, and they want to preserve their credibility.

This election is 1980 all over again. Reagan was a populist, an outsider, a make America First kind of guy. He had no chance. He won by landslide victories, twice!

Trump is a populist, an outsider, a Make America First kind of guy. The media gives him no chance. Watch out for the tsunami...it will make flushing the DC toilet easier.

There can be no fence sitters. We all have to vote TRUMP. If there is something you don't like about him, hold your nose when you vote for him (like I did in 2008 and 2012). My wife and I are voting for Trump because we like him. First time since '84 haven't had to hold my nose... :)
