I cannot come to any other conclusion that the majority of the pollsters are sleepwalking into an election night as infamous as the Truman/Dewey one.

That's what I'm feeling too. And if that happens, the huge shock will be all the more painful for them. LOL.

Saw an article last night that showed among Dems in Florida with little or no college education that Trump is carrying 35% of them. If this trend is across state lines then Hils is in very deep kimchee.

Wish I could have posted it but I was otherwise preoccupied.

The consensus on poll models is wrong, this unusual election will stress flawed assumption. For example, Trump holds a negative favorable gap vs Clinton among Republicans. This might traditionally signal a depressed turnout (hence the D skew.) This is wrong.

Trump is an asshole. Voters will crawl over broken glass to cast a vote in his favor. With Clinton on the other side further pushing for marks in Trump’s column, she is clearly at a disadvantage.

His rallies are massive and he owns social media. His supporters are frequently the kind of people that had permanently left politics. These folk are not counted in the models.

Yup we did the same thing in 2012 in dismissing/explaining away all data/signs that pointed to the impending Obama win.

We were so sure he would lose - until he didn’t and we were shocked by the outcome.

That’s the exactly what the other side is doing now. They’re so sure Trump will lose - the only conclusion they draw is Hillary will win.

Reality is a lot of butthurt and never feels good.

Yup, if that’s true around the country, Trump will win every swing state now being contested.

Won’t be easy for Hillary’s staff to break her the bad news. She doesn’t have any one like Pat Caddell did for Carter to give it to her straight.

Gee, wonder why. Their internals must really be in the tank for them to shun the media.

You can’t spin your way out of a defeat.

Trump is an asshole.

I disagree.

Trump will be the smartest guy in the room not matter what room it is. He will also have the largest testicles.

He is currently the most qualified person on the planet to be president of the USA.

Amazing that Clinton still has a slight lead and the support of the old media. There is another message here. This is further proof of who our enemies are and a blatant demonstration of the power of organized international criminals.

Far from becoming more accurate, media is going all in for Hillary.

They’ve got too much riding on her and will drag her over the finish line no matter what.

They’re far from giving up - just the opposite.

Of course, the old media is run by the same criminal organization. These people are dismantling our representative government.

I expect the polls to lose all contact with reality to continue to show Hillary ahead.

They can’t afford to admit its all over for her.

If you think they’ll concede to Trump, good luck with it.

Personally, I don’t believe Hitlary has ANY lead over Trump and all the polls in the world showing she has a lead are bogus. Nov. 9th will tell us who wins, not someone “guess”. IF voters haven’t made up their minds by now, they need to stay home.

Assholes make excellent leaders and are easily capable of great accomplishments. See: Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, et al. Our best leaders througout history fit this description. I wholly support the man and make this a point when the conversation turns toward his personal flaws. Trump clearly loves his country and is fully aware that what makes a country is its people.

The libtards in NM are immigrants from CA, IL, CT, NY. The others are indigenous old school dummies with conservative values. NM can go Trump.

Sooner or later Hillary must give up on Weiners.

They are the root cause of all her troubles!

She never had a lead! The polls were way oversampling just to set her up to say the election was rigged by the Russians...or now they can blame the FBI. But Trump has been ahead the whole time and they know it.
