Yes. That is nothing new. You must be a first time voter.

I bet he does.
And I bet Juanita Broaddrick appears with Trump down the road. And she makes commercials with Trump. And Paula Jones and Kathleen Willy too. And the other dozen or so other poor women.

Are there really 7 percent more Democrats than Republicans in this country?

Most likely, yes. 50% pay no taxes; 75% pay 7% or less in taxes.

Yes, a few more votes in a few States will make all the difference.

Obama was not a bad candidate in terms of getting his base motivated.

Hillary doesn't have that ability.

Lies, damned lies, and polls.

There’s only one poll that counts, and that’s the national election - and Trump is unstoppable.

DJT is going to beat the Beast like a two-dollar mule. Her recent comments about making Billy Jeff her economics czar were made out of desperation - you could see it in her body language.

Oh great!
Then we could look forward to the second greatest income tax increase, plus another double hit (again!) by taxing Social Security income AND making sure all of the basic necessities of life are not part of the Cost of Living Index.

And there is ominous rumbling about government universal medical insurance, and the rise of the vampire "Death Panels!"

Just great!

” He also beats Clinton with voters who have a high school degree or less, and those who make over $100,000 per year.”

So who is voting for her, people who have useless degrees and work in Starbucks?

"But Hillary has no upside potential; she’s been on the national political scene for decades, and people know what they think of her. She is not going to gain any additional support no matter what she does."

This is the dirty little secret the media never mentions. The criticisms of Clinton such as her being thought of as a liar, untrustworthy and dishonest (Quinnipiac Survey) go directly to her character. Meanwhile the Trump negatives are related to personality (and huge media spin) and can be overcome . In short while Clinton has nowhere to go but further down, Trump has a huge upside potential.
