You have to know Florida to understand Florida. In many ways it’s a microcosm of the larger U.S. electorate, everyone is from somewhere else; and in some ways it’s a unique place known only to generational crackers, which has nothing whatsoever to do with race or hyphens.
If you grew up in Florida you’ll already know most of this review. Or if your childhood Tupperware was a matching set of Cool Whip containers, well, it’ll make sense too.
After the primary season voting we shared some insight into what the results meant for the general election overall. We even made some predictions based on that result. It’s now seven months later, and despite the media noise, the reality of what’s taking place on the ground aligns with all previous expectations.

And then there is this, http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/reading-tea-leaves-on-early-presidential-voting-here%e2%80%99s-who%e2%80%99s-gaining-so-far/ar-AAjoD0M?ocid=edgsp
“All the data we are seeing suggests that Clinton is doing as well, if not better, than Obama in many, if not most, places,” said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute.
So far, an estimated 7.2 million people have voted nationwide, and the news is promising for Clinton in Florida and North Carolina. Polls show the race too close to call in North Carolina and Clinton up slightly in Florida. Without those states’ 44 electoral votes, Donald Trump’s prospects of reaching the 270 needed to win are dim.”
It’s true. Hell-ary as of today is now trying to change the Dem/Media BS meme that Trump is way behind and it’s over.
She is now saying that “the race is close” to get the minions out to vote.
Hubris...I agree. They will begin to believe their own faulty polls and the MSM sirens luring them into complacency, and will make bad campaign decisions on that basis.
Not necessarily since Florida is priority state to win that he can’t take for granted no matter what the lead is now.
Trump is there barnstorming the state because early voting has started, and the same reason Hell is in the state.
LOL!
So no D +9?
What the hell happened to the Hillary landslide? :)
Neither Hillary or Trump have magical polls. Just because someone hete thinks he’s going to win by 10, he KNOWS he has to win Florida and has to fight for it. IF anything Trump is believed not to use polls a lot
Patrick Murray is the moron from Monmouth who is in a state of always lying.
Man wasn’t Florida D +12%? Heh. :)
It will come down to FL and PA.
Whoever wins one wins both and hence the White House.
That’s why the stakes are so high - because they are.
Pat Caddell said any poll with “University” in the name is worthless.
Yep, the Trump train is rolling down hill.

After Trump wins a landslide, all the media talking heads will get together and ask, "What happened?!"
You oversampled Democrats dummies!"
Yep.
Florida was Barack Hussein by 10%, so this is a (YUGE!) 9% improvement relative to Romney, to the extent that it’s true.
Monmouth is a Tokyo Rose poll. Wikileaks has shown us how polls are crafted to push a narrative.
Even in legit polls, there are probably more than a few respondents who will vote Trump in private while saying they are undecided or for Hildabeast or one of the third party goofballs. I’d also wager there are more than a few folks who will crawl over busted glass to vote Trump but will tell pollsters to go pound sand when contacted.
I believe Trump will win bigly enough to cancel the margin of fraud. Think Reagan 2.0.
On the other hand, if Hillary wins after being exposed as a sickly criminal grifter, then we deserve what we get, and we’ll get it good and hard.
Oops! That was supposed to say "Florida was Barack Hussein by 1%, so this is a (YUGE!) 9% improvement relative to Romney, to the extent that it’s true."
I often wonder, do people who repeat their exact comment across threads save it in notepad or something? Then cut and paste?
Or if you helped mix the yellow food dye into the oleo-margarine to make it look like butter.

I think the last time I actually saw my parents doing that was in the late 1940s, maybe the early ‘50s.
Too high. 5
What percentage makes one a “German-American?” I’m 50%, born in USA.
I think he is in Florida because of early voting.
