Wrong -—Limbaugh definitely said that and Obama was NOT filling up stadiums in 2012....he was back in 2008/9.

There is a new poll coming out today at 4:00 E.T.
Battleground with Ohio and Iowa. This will be telling. I think it is a Marist poll.

Ignore the polls.

The fact is the “mushy middle” is going to be mushier than normal, this race will swing back and forth several times before it’s over. All it takes is one world event to swing momentum right back towards Trump.

And the following morning was the most depressing day of my life. I knew this country would never be the same again.

The only poll that matters IMO is likability. The least unpopular candidate will win the election. Bet the farm!

I think you are right... I get a little discouraged because every time something good happens like voter ID or beating back the gays with HB2 in North Carolina, the democrats simply nullify or reverse it, and then we lose again. I’m so used to losing that I forgot what its like to win.

...while this time Clinton is hardly drawing crowds at all...

Interesting point. Hillary draws maybe a few hundred people and the media blows it up like its a Chautauqua revival, while Trump draws thousands and its just, well, feh.

The other thing to remember is that Hillary "won" maybe two or three primaries while Bernie Sanders won the rest, and she still "won" the nomination. Watch for a similar effect in the election. In the world of 'Rats, you don't really have to win to "win".
