You don’t have much to worry about. Hell-ary will stay in all the way to the bitter end. Her ending.

A week ago, the ABC poll had Hillary 12 points ahead nationwide. Now the poll has it at two. She lost ten points in a week.

That reminds me of the collapse of the 1964 Phillies, ahead by 6 1/2 games with 12 games left, then lost ten in a row to lose the pennant.

(Except that the Phillies lead was real.)

I used to call them not the Phillies but the Fleas.

I think after the '64 season they should have moved to the Philippines and called themselves the Manila Folders...

Good name!

Johnny Callison was one of my favorite ballplayers.

When Sen. Jim Bunning was on C-Span one morning, I called and asked about the 1964 collapse. He just mumbled something innocuous I don’t even remember.

Not to burst your bubble but look at Broward County. They are up 300% over 2012. Maybe they are voting early vs. election day, but concerning.

Two other Phillies trivia items from way back.

In 1971, Rick Wise threw a no-hitter. During that game he himself hit not one, but *two* home runs. (Even better than the Orioles' Dave McNally hitting a grand slam in his first at-bat in the World Series...)

And, wasn't it in 1972 where Steve Carlton won 27 games for a *team* that only won 54 games all year? To my mind that is right up there with Ron Guidry's 25-3 season for the Yankees in, what was it, 1978?

Carlton’s ‘72 was one for the ages.

Another amazing ‘72 performance was Gaylord Perry’s for the Indians (he’d been traded there from the Giants in the off-season).

He got a decision or a save in every game he appeared in — 40 starts for 24-16, and one relief appearance for a save.

Rick Wise’s no-hitter plus two home runs, amazing!

Beats Tony Cloninger hitting two grand slams in a game for the Braves in 1966.

Broward trying to produce enough votes to get her over the top? Any legal challenge should look at that 300% increase.

She lost that 10 points in a week before Friday’s news.

Steve Carlton trained in kung fu. Kinda rare at that time.

Her poll declines this week will be epic.

Trump has improved his standings among Cuban-Americans by 19 points in just one month

I was in Miami a few weeks ago. I work for a Cuban owned business.

I was little taken a back by the venal hatred they had for Clinton...

Most were not enthralled with Trump, but were going to vote for him..

Apparently, he is doing well in OH and FL, but NC and PA remain difficult.

“A week ago, the ABC poll had Hillary 12 points ahead nationwide. Now the poll has it at two. She lost ten points in a week.”

in 2012, the scott brown/martha coakley race, the friday before the election the boston globe ran a front page poll with coakley up 14.
so, either the poll was totally fake, or, wait a minute, there really isn’t another or.
