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.

1) I do not believe these garbage polls being spewed by the corrupt media,

BUT

2) I just cannot see how Trump can win - there are not enough of us left in America. The culture is rotted to the core. Us older folks are the last ones to remember how America used to be. The current generations EMBRACES SOCIALISM - so live with it.

No fantasy or mystery about you. You exposed yourself long ago slick. This absurd Trump hit piece ya posted simply substantiates that. Just like the other Trump hit pieces you post. You’re about as obvious as they come.

You didn’t hurt me, I just don’t like you.

And I don’t care who you voted for.

Good night.

The latest approved meme for the MSM is that “Ohio doesn’t matter anymore”. That started a few weeks ago when the first polls started showing Trump inching ahead in the state. So the media re-worked the message from “must have” to “doesn’t matter”. The reason? The state is “too white”. Since both candidates fall into that demographic I’m not sure what the connection is, but its what the lamestream press is saying.

Its not so much the percentages they use, as much as it is the turnout model that they use. If they are using 2012 turnout model then Hillary is always going to come out on top.

Must be Hillary’s great campaigning lately...oh wait, she has been in a hospital bed for a week getting juiced for Wednesday’s debate so she doesn’t have a Goofy seizure, or freak out at balloons like a 3 year old or pass out and have to be thrown into a van like sack of lard.

LOL I don’t think any GOPer can win with the 08 or 12 turnout Model Obama had!

He was unbeatable! No way Hillary will match that!

Almost zero chance Trump is +2 in Ohio (avg) and down 10+ nationally. Given what the media has done, I’d guess they are rigging the national polls.

Don’t forget Kaine’s FL rally. The MSM claims he had all of 50 people there. Unless they were paid/bribed, that figure sounds way too high to me.

I’ve learned to add 10 points to whatever any media outlet poll says because it has been proven over and over they sample more dems than reps; up to 18% more so that 10 could sometimes be even more.

Oh; and they lie through their teeth like a rug.
