Following the second presidential debate and controversies surrounding both campaigns, Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump has expanded to nine points now nationally. Forty-seven percent of likely voters support or lean towards Clinton, while 38 percent support Trump. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson gets 8 percent of likely voters, while Green Party candidate Jill Stein receives 3 percent of the vote. Two weeks ago, Clinton’s lead was four points.

No quid pro quo. We know that because they told us so. Sure. Never mind what can see
with our own eyes. All you have to do is watch a ‘debate’. They strap explosives on cars, make up National Guard memos, but sure, the polls that they report on are as clean and pure as the driven snow. Sure they are.

we have to get “in the face” of anyone claiming to be a Hillary supporter.

so far I have seen only delusional crones and old men who fear their own failures.

they are too stupid to understand hillarycare is duty to die care.

Who cares at this point. The gaudy numbers are coming out now to tell us it is all over. This was the plan before the Trump tape, the debate, and the BS accusations. This is the narrative. Forget unskewing and analyzing the internals. This stuff is just made up now.

I don't know this with any certainty, but if every other facet of the political process is obviously corrupted, I can make a sure bet that I am right about polls.

CBS NEWS SPECIAL REPORT

Hi Folks, Dan Rather here. I’m coming out of retirement to report this special CBS News bulletin.

While a single fake but accurate memo from George W. Bush’s Air National Guard unit was enough to prove that he was unfit to be president, the thousands upon thousands of documents that prove Hillary Clinton’s corruption has the value of a dead possum on the side of a rural Texas highway.

Stay with CBS News or any of our comrades at ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, CNN, FOX, AP, NYT, WJS, BBC, Reuters, Gannett, Tribune, Telemundo, Univision, Comcast, Sony, Weinstein Companies, Harpo Productions, Facebook, Yahoo, Google and Al Jazeera for the latest breaking news on the Donald Trump scandal of the day.

That’s not how you calculate the D+ bias. We need the total number of voters (including independents), and then calculate the percentage that each group (D/R/I) represents.

When CBS puts out anti-Trump propaganda, they can always find allies to spread it around.

Look I can’t wait to vote for Trump, but I acknowledge we don’t live in a center right country. This is an elitist hard left nation, with liberals who want to export jobs that deal with resource extraction and manufacturing, so that the professional classes can rule us in a two tiered society. We are the minority in this country. Big business along with a corporatist and complicit gop has changed the demographics of our country. I don’t believe this poll and I am praying for Trump. But we do not live in s center right country.
