Until the Kings did it, no hockey team had come back from 0-3 to win a playoff series.

Until the RedSox came back from 0-3 against the Yankees, no baseball team had done that in the playoffs.

No one ever came back from 3 down until LeBron and the cavs.

The same with Trump. Trump will prevail. Trump will be the next President.

Checking RCP charts, there are two polls out so far that extend to within a week of labor day:

LA Times/USC 8/29 - 9/4 2576 LV 4.5 43 45 Trump +2

IBD/TIPP 8/26 - 9/1 861 LV 3.4 44 43 Clinton +1

On average then this is Trump +0.5%. So Hillary is destined to lose for being behind on Labor day.

Hillary is a corrupt, lying, old crook who accepts bribes and betrays our country. Everything in that sentence is well documented. She lies even when the truth would serve her better. Everything she says during this campaign must be treated with the utmost suspicion.

No one who got laryngitis on Labor Day ever won either.
(Hillary! is hacking and coughing her way through a speech now.

McCain was leading Obozo on labor day weekend in 2008. He had just selected Palin as his running mate and the GOP convention was late that year so there was a lot of energy for McCain at that point.

This was before the media destroyed Palin, the financial meltdown, and McCain’s boneheaded idea to “suspend his campaign” from which he never recovered.

Well then Fox shouldn’t he be praised for getting money out of politics?
Proves there are an awful lot of communists with a lot of money

Only when they are at the airport and happen to notice CNN on all the sets all the time and then they go right back to their iPhones.

Re the number of Clinton TV ads versus Trump TV ads - their revenue must be taking an “unexpected” nosedive. When will they ever learn that Trump is not going to follow anyone’s playbook but his own?

Your link says that poll was released on October 26th, 1980 two weeks before the election.

Judging from her last speech, HILLARY may not make it beyond Labor Day.

Fox gradually went left to improve its ratings, with Juan, Jerry and Shemp, and other alarming moves. It worked for them.
But they lost the audience that gave them their start: conservatives. A lot of us haven’t watched them for years. We don’t trust them now anymore than NBC, ABC, CBS or CNN.

Trump will roll like Patton through Germany this fall and in the wake Fox will try to move back to the right, but they’ll do it without us, the mouse in my pocket and me.

Labor Day:

1980: Reagan breaks the mold

This election is the other exception to the rule—Reagan trailed President Jimmy Carter by 4 points in Gallup’s poll, but came back to win by a 10-point margin.

The pundits on The Journal Editorial Report seemed to think that Trump was bound to lose because Hillary has a better "ground game"--more field offices in the various states.

The "field offices" are where the Soros ballot transmogrifiers are located.

Polling is nearly impossible for this election. There are supporters on both sides who are unwilling to admit to anybody who they will vote for. Trump supporters are constantly bashed and shamed in the press in order to convince them that they must have a screw loose.

Some Hillary supporters are not willing to admit that they are supporting someone with such a weak character (putting it mildly!) that everyone can see that she lies at the drop of a hat. Most recognize that she got a pass from the FBI.

My wife and I just walked our community in Payson, Arizona. We counted 3 Trump yard signs and 0 Hillary signs in a community of 250 homes, albeit many are vacation homes. There were NO bumper stickers on any vehicles. I suspect that the support for both goes deeper than that.

The networks don’t have a clue what the people will do. Remember Brexit? It was going to lose by 10% the morning of the vote. It’ won by 4%.

Which even more speaks to the lie that whoever leads on Labor Day wins.

Besides, Trump is ahead this Labor Day.
