Agreed re the 'walk back'.

However !   I'd be curious to hear from any FReepers who had the stomach to tune in CBS what the precise context was in which she purportedly made the We are behind comment that was quoted.

Many's the time the enemedia bastards have taken an innocuous phrase entirely out of context and twisted it to their own seditous ends.

I loathe them all, and urge the few innocent ones to get the hell out .. there'd be more honor in flipping burgers.

You can watch her statement in context for yourself from today’s Meet The Press:

Regarding polling.

This is anecdotal, so take it FWIW but it is confirmation of a mentality we *think* may be effecting polls.

We had a family member filling out a ballot today. 19 years old, female and first time voting. She hates Hillary and thinks she is corrupt to the core but she also thinks Trump is an idiot and doesn't like his "social policies". She was planning on voting Johnson. I had, at least, convinced her to vote Stein and was somewhat content with that progress.

Then a few days later, I pushed it a bit more. Pushed her more on the demographic issue. Really pushed the healthcare angle. Was she ready to buy useless and expensive health insurance or, worse, be fined $1000s of dollars for not buying it as "she was getting to that age when she would have to buy her own health insurance"

That finally pushed her over the edge and she voted Trump.

She was extremely worried, though, asking several times if any one could find out that she did. She was honestly afraid it could hurt her prospects in the future. She said she was never telling any one who she voted for and would say Stein if they asked.

How many people are answering pollsters with the same fears?
