Key points:

Ann Selzer, highly respected pollster

Clinton leads 50-41 in 2-way and 47-38 in 4-way

Clinton leads among men (46-44) and among non-college educated (48-44).

D-R breakdown is 35% to 29%, a very plausible number.

Note On Essential Tactics

I do not want to come across as arrogant; but based on 60+ years of fighting for traditional American values, including hours of using live TV to advantage, I want to share some experience driven suggestions, both for our candidate, and all of us who will be actively promoting a Trump victory in just 20 days.

While speaking in anger can sometimes help rally those who share your beliefs and priorities, it is not the most effective way to convert those who dissent from our purpose. When there is a real problem to be addressed, it is almost always better to speak in sorrow than in anger.

In the present ideological conflict, there is great reason for sorrow. We need to interject, in every possible exchange, those contemporary phenomena that are not only unfortunate from our stand point; but which are likely to be understood as sad by anyone listening to us.

Putting this understanding to work in a situation such as tonight's Presidential debate; Trump needs to intertwine his response to essential policy issues, by sadly lamenting the background social climate, which certainly impacts all aspects of contemporary American life, including the problem reflected in the issue. For example:

The decline in pride in heritage, openly encouraged by Obama's repeated apologies to others for America's traditions & achievement--leading to Americans kneeling through the Star Spangled Banner;--his & Mrs. Clinton's siding with Soros financed thugs against the Police--leading to the cold blooded assassination of American cops;--their refusal to protect the border, leading to job losses among rooted Americans, brutal crimes against American women, and the despicable riots in California, where aliens who do not share our values, or honor our heritage, intimidate local officials into not celebrating the achievements of the Founding Fathers and their posterity.

It was only last week, when anti-American culturalists advocated not celebrating Columbus Day! The Obama/Clinton cabal seem intent on denying that our values & achievements, under uniquely American cultural values, grew directly out of the experience driven values of particular European settlers. That is fact. It takes nothing away from the achievements or values of any other people; but it is our fact, and we are entitled to honor that fact and the rich cultural heritage it reflects.

To the extent that the Obama/Clinton cabal would deny us pride in our history, they are truly bigoted enemies. But we do best, again, when we lament the success of our enemies, as we explain, again quietly and sadly, how totally despicable is this ongoing attack, coming indeed from those who have benefited so much, while gaming our system.

Some may think that this approach is going soft. It is precisely the opposite. In place of venting our wrath at the Obama/Clinton betrayal, we begin to instill wrath in some of those who otherwise would simply go along with the enemy, "to get along."

There is nothing the least bit new in these tactics. Anyone familiar with Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar," is quite familiar with the technique. It worked in the play because it reflects a true understanding of the psychological factors involved.

The demographics of American CITIZENS hasn’t changed that much in 10 years, and even less among those old enough to vote. But there’s no doubt that this is a demographic last chance, and it really is only a less than 50-50 chance.

Pollsters, in the main, are currently ignoring the 2012 turnout RESULTS that went roughly 26% for both parties - that is your LIKELY VOTER figure. Democrats have a lead in REGISTERED voters, but they don’t turn out on Election Day:

I bet Hillary has a few bombs to drop tonight on Trump to keep the MSM busy for the next few weeks.

I hope Trump makes up lost ground in the debate.

Thank you for your concern troll, but you (like this poll) are full of it.

There is no way Hillary is ahead with men unless that group includes a larger than normal amount of men who are Democrats and/or minorities.

Two things I believe we’re forgetting here:

1) Those who lie to pollsters about whom they’ll be voting for (Say they’re voting for Hillary, but will be voting for Trump so as not to be ridiculed)

2) Black voters who will be voting for Trump and again would never mention that to a pollster or the racists in the Liberal media for fear of being labeled an Uncle Tom

Oh yes, and lots not forget Trump’s massive crowds at his rallies, and Hillary’s tiny crowds.

NOT BUYING THESE BULL SH*T POLLS SHOWING HILLARY CREAMING TRUMP!

I also forgot to add if they include a larger than normal amount of men with college degrees, since for some stupid reason they tend to vote Democrat.

This college degree guy however is voting Trump. Just like most men will.
