Clinton's double-digit lead is up from an 8-point gap last week. The 10-point margin is the biggest spread in the tracking poll since the two-way general election match-up was first compared in early May.

Sure the polls are off. But he cannot stand back, use twitter and rallies (that the media is editing) and gain any ground while everyone in the media is hammering him. He needs to buy some network ads and start slamming Hillary or he will be identified and have his image locked before the fall... another close lost race.

I have posted against being hangdog about the polls, because they are truly biased. Hillary doesn't have a ten point lead... but she has a lead.

Of course the poll is slanted...

“3,451 registered Republican voters (+/-2.3%) and 3,974 registered Democratic voters (+/-2.0%)”

there is almost 15% more democrats in the poll than republicans. And why no independents?

I would like to see some TV ads for Trump. He needs to buy up airtime and pummel Hillary with ads - so much so that she can’t keep up.

Bernie had massive rallies, but Hillary beat him, even excluding the Super Delegates. Trump has to earn votes, Rats get them automatically from the brain dead.

This one isn’t even a scientific poll, it just asks people who fill out SurveyMonkey questionnaires how they’re going to vote.

The fix was in with Bernie and the superdelegate system is rife with fraud.

Hillary supporters don’t leave the couch, much less go to rallies. The only reason they even vote is because they are bussed in and promised goodies.

And a lot of republicans are just plain stupid. The refuse to vote for Trump because the media says he is a meanie, and completely ignore Clinton’s unbroken record of failure and corruption.

Still, the polls are garbage.

I agree that there is a real possibility that the debates will be cancelled. But what will be the reason? If hitlery offers lame excuses, questions will come up as to her health and competency right away. Can hitlerly come up with a double that can take her place? (like Hitler had?)

That means that there would need to be a real excuse like a national emergency (war, economic collapse). And if something like that happened, the elections would probably be postponed (which means cancelled)

I’ve had this debate with a family member who is a #NeverTrumper, mainly because he was always convinced that once Trump had secured the nomination the media would be able to pummel him into a bloody pulp.

Based on the first two weeks past the convention, he would appear to be right.

Of course his logic is flawed in that he thinks if Cruz or Rubio had been nominated this wouldn’t be happening.

The Democrats adopted DETROY THE OPPONENT as their official game plan ten minutes after finishing Alinsky’s book in 1972.

Learn it.
Live it.
Love it.

“My take from Rush’s show yesterday was that these polls may indeed be accurate. Romney was filling arenas and he lost.”

That explains your agreeing with this poll.

How many times did Rush try to help losers in the primaries?

If elections are canceled the REAL Civil War will break out. The one between the Clinton camp and the Chicago Mob.

I don’t know what to think. I thought Romney had it in the bag, and he had big crowds toward the end and he lost pretty bad.

The problem is that I have figured out what the democrats have known for decades. That MOST people are mindless lemmings who yearn to be told what to do and controlled. They are swayed only by emotion, shame and ‘going along with what the majority of the crowd thinks.

I have been watching a lot of mainstream media lately and the attacks on Trump in every single newscast and TV show and print media are vile and are so over the top negative, that it’s almost comical. Over time this propaganda that Trump is a bigot etc. takes hold.

People have been conditioned by Alinsky tactics to be shamed for any non-liberal thoughts. They won’t run to hillary but I fear many will be convinced to vote for some third party candidate for their ‘conscience’ because it makes them feel good to not vote for the ‘bigot’ or crook.

“Why spread more MSM propaganda?”

Great question, and of course his tag teamers will agree with him.

Then, when challenged, they will swear that they will vote for Trump.

They are as believable as their bs polls they post or agree with.
