So the rats know this and now they have turned the FBI back on the case because they are losing and the know it. AND they will put someone else in.

I just hope she believed all of the stories of her being in the lead.

I would give anything to be a fly on the wall when she hears NY State went for Trump.

I was thinking that too but I'm not sure of the logistics of that.

Of course. They run an outlier poll or 2, 3 4 and then Trump has to fight the rolling averages. Such bunk.

“AND they will put someone else in.”

There’s no chance of that happening, and even if it could happen, it wouldn’t help them much this late in the race.

There are no logistics for that. Hillary’s name is already on the ballot in 50 states, and that is the name that is going to stay there through election day. Even if Hillary agreed to step aside (and that’s the only way they could remove her, she would have to do it voluntarily), they would still have to convince people to put the check next to Hillary’s name anyway.

Polls are voodoo at this point:

—Approximately five percent of people contacted respond.
—No-one, and I mean no-one, knows to what extent these five percent represent the total population.
—There has been insane over-sampling of Democrats based on 2012 patterns.
—No-one, and I mean no-one, has the slightest clue what the party representation will be of voters who will vote on election day.
—No-one knows what turnout will look like on election day.
—And, to make it worse, no-one has reliable data on the key states that will decide the electoral college.

Polling at this point is raw sewage.

Media reporting of polling is toxic waste.

Easy. The vote is for Federal electors, not for particular candidates. The party can notify the electors before they vote in Dec. that its candidate has changed. The electors are the ones who actually vote for President.

If the candidate that the EC votes in can't serve by Inauguration Day, then the issue drops into the lap of the House of Representatives, which has the final say.

Of course it didn’t. THIS is why Comey and Zero are bailing on the Witch. She is tanking and they don’t want to go down with her.

Good observation that this is specifically an attempt to short-circuit Trump’s strategy.

I could be wrong but I believe the election on Nov. 8 is for a slate of electors to the electoral college. Those electors are able to vote for whomsoever they please when the electoral college meets. The democrat electors may vote for someone else, especially if Hillary is comatose or indicted by then.

I believe this is a contrived decline to get voters motivated to the polls.

As Obama has been criticized as remaining in campaign mode long after the campaign has ended, the media seems to be stuck in the campaign mode of 2008.

As a consequence of the media being stuck in 2008 campaign mode, the premise that the media has successfully impacted voter expectations as to who is going to win the 2016 presidential race ignores that Donald Trump has successfully stirred up a revolution against the corrupt Washington cartel.

This is not a plausible strategy. There is not enough time to put somebody new in. Many have already voted. And the ballots are not going to be changed on such short notice. What do you expect them to do then? A write in campaign?
