I heard that Hillary smells of urine and cabbage. Is that “strong” enough?

She’s leaning on a rail. Looks weak. Subtle hint: Strong leader ain’t Hillary.

Ignore, ignore, ignore. Do not let the media manipulate you one way or the other.

Not necessarily a good or bad sign. My Hillary-voting friends on FB see her as a person who is steady and can knock heads together to get things done. I shake my head.

They aren’t embargoing exit poll results until after the polls close this time. There’s a reason for it, people. It’s called MANIPULATION!

I was thinking along the line of integrity.

I completely agree. This is one of the ways this election is similar to the 1980 election.

I’m tellin’ ya, it’s not completely unthinkable that Trump could take California. :-D

Except every poll, even skewed ones, define Trump as the “strong leader” by nearly 2-1 over Hillary.

The Morning Consult/POLITICO Exit Poll was conducted October 18-November 8 among 6,782 early and Election-Day voters. The interviews were conducted online and the data were weighted to approximate a target sample of registered voters based on age, race/ethnicity, gender, educational attainment, and region.

Not an exit poll. Although angry voters likely won't be voting for more of the same!

Unless a “strong leader” means someone who lies, cheats and throws ashtrays.

What if it means someone who blackmails her opponents or has her enemies murdered? I mean, that's pretty hardcore there right?

Strong MAN or weak WOMAN.

The choice is pretty simple and obvious.

That’s the whole idea behind early voting anyhow. It gives the MSM more room to manipulate.

It’s not a cane... It’s a stair rail, but she’s hanging onto it for dear life.

There's that 53% number again! (Late last week, Rasmussen poll showed 53% felt Clinton should be indicted by FBI.)

Hmmm. 100% - 53% = 47%. Well, there's that 47% that Romney referred to.
