Interesting to see these polls?

Anyone else remember, in past elections, the Democrat is usually far ahead in early polls?

Remember Jimmy Carter was so far ahead of President Ford in early 1976 polls? Carter won, but it was one of the closest elections in history.

Remember how Dukakis was far ahead of George HW Bush in early polls in 1988? But then we know Bush won comfortably.

So it seems odd that the Democrat this time around does not have a big lead in polls.

I’ve heard too that some of these polls over the years are fake, that the liberals want you to think the Democrat is more popular than he/she really is.

Anyway, it is stunning that Hillary is in a tight race against Trrump in these polls.

Also, Hillary is well known, she’s been on the political scene for decades. With her high negatives, there’s no upside potential for her to gain additional support. People know who she is and what she stands for. There are not big numbers of voters who will give her a second look. They already know what they think of her. She can only lose support as time goes on.

You can’t compare what occurred with Carter or Bush or what happened 50 years ago to now.

This election is totally different. It’s a whole new era with a candidate the likes of which these corrupt frauds in D.C. have never seen.
