I cannot remember a single general election race in which the Republican candidates was in a virtual tie or even slightly ahead at this point in the race. Almost always, the Republican is "always fighting from behind" all year.
This is a total disaster for Crooked Hillary. And she's about to get spanked tonight in WV by Bernie Sanders.
Worse than that, the press produced laughable polls showing Mondale or Gary Hart beating Reagan in March, of 1984, the year the Gipper won 49 states. After that, we never heard another poll until the day before the election.
Then there was Old Man Bush 20+% ahead of Clinton in ‘92. Early polls don’t mean much, either way.
