If the 2016 presidential race is tightening, how come the Main Stream Media is acting as though it’s widening? Indeed, why is the MSM indicating to us that Hillary Clinton is going to defeat Donald Trump in a landslide? Why are Republicans being told that they should abandon all hope of winning the White House?
To answer those questions, we can cite the MSM Rule of Inverse Electoral Correlation: The closer the presidential race gets, the louder the MSM declares that it’s over. And all this comes even as Clinton has had a terrible week—arguably her worst week ever, as the billowing smoke of financial scandal clouds herself and her family.
Yet of course, the MSM has plenty ammo still to fire. Having been instructed by The New York Times to abandon even the pretense of impartiality by taking an “oppositional” stance toward Trump, Big Journalism is now doubling down on behalf of the Democrats; hence this August 19 headline bannered atop Politico: “GOP insiders: Trump’s overhaul won’t succeed/ Roughly a third of Republican respondents say the addition of [Stephen K.] Bannon and promotion of [Kellyanne] Conway will make things worse.” (We might note that this bit of MSM-masticated “news” led immigration-focused pundit Mickey Kaus to react with a snarkily ironic tweet: “AUSPICIOUS SIGN FOR TRUMP.”)
And yet the very next day, Politico dutifully followed up with another Trump-is-doomed piece, headlined: “Republicans prep ‘break glass’ emergency plan as Trump tumbles/ Losing hope for the White House, the GOP is exploring a plan to cast congressional candidates as a check on President Hillary Clinton.” The MSM’s intentions are obvious: Journos are seeking to stampede Republicans into panicky defeatism.

When you’ve lost HuffPo, you’ve had a bad week....
The Titanic’s going down... she’s peaked. Trump landslide coming...
“MSM Rule of Inverse Electoral Correlation: The closer the presidential race gets, the louder the MSM declares that it’s over.” Bingo!!!! Will have to site this often.
Don't expect the current round of expertise to turn out much better.
Has anyone done a Google search using the words “Hillary Clinton health”? In the search suggestions you get the following:
Hillary Clinton Health Care
Hillary Clinton Health Care Plan
Hillary Clinton Health Care Reform
Hillary Clinton Health Care Plan 1993.
But, no suggestion referencing her health.
The MoJo is not with Hellary-— she’s a landslide though with the upper crust DemoRat elites on Maaaaaaaaaaaatha’s Vineyaaaaaaaaaaad however.
Try this.....
Hillary Clinton’s health
Lots of stuff.
Voting is not a victimless crime
MSM pulls this crap every time they run a weak candidate, or their candidate sucks. Looks like they bagged the double this time!
MSM is trying to demoralize Trump voters and dissuade them from voting and MSM is counting on the Clinton/Obama vote stealing project to be roaring success. If they can keep Trump voters down to 60% of the legitimate vote, the control of the voting machines and the illegal voters together should put Mr Bill across.
By the way, where was Hillary this week? Not in Louisiana.....
One story said she and Obama attended two fundraisers and right, not in Louisiana. Too many white people in the flood.
RCP Clinton lead on Friday was +6, on Saturday +5.7. Today +5.3
I hear the press helium leaking out of the Hillary balloon.

It’s always a best week when she doesn’t show up.
It when she or Obama speaks that drives their polls down.
