What the Dems see as “dark”, we see as finally finding the light.

Worried Democrats say they thought some of the “dark” themes that Trump and his allies raised in Cleveland wouldn’t gain traction in modern-day America.

That's because they do not gain traction inside the Beltway, in Hollywood, San Francisco or on the Upper East Side.

“Worried Democrats say they thought some of the “dark” themes that Trump and his allies raised in Cleveland wouldn’t gain traction in modern-day America.”

Looks like modern-day America has moved past believing Dem lies.

When the world is literally on fire, “dark” is truth.

The whole “dark” meme was propaganda, talking points shared by DNC to the media and faithfully shared suddenly in all the news stories. Yes, they should fret. They are stuck with Clinton and a party that doesn’t want her. The polls with go up and down, but Trump is doing quite well and Clinton is not, despite what the media like to suggest.

Whenever she speaks, her voice alone is annoying, regardless of what she says. I don't know how any independent person can listen to her speech and think to themselves, "I cannot take this for four years!"

This got me thinking about what the DNC will do during her speech on Thursday. I'm guessing they are going to juice the microphone or feed to soften it up. Like Auto-tune.

I just saw a thread that says that Trump is up 9 points over Clinton in NH. If he’s way ahead like that in NH, I’m betting he’s ahead in VT, ME, RI, and maybe even CT, and closing the gap in NY as well. We’ll have to wait and see, but it’s starting to look very good.

““It shouldn’t be this close”

Well when a candidate doesn’t fear being called names by dullards, I can see how a lefty would be shocked.

And Trump spent nothing on ads.

Hillary has spent tens of millions.

The miracle of today’s audio technology is you can easily manipulate voice waves and phonics! Don’t doubt for one minute they will not try to pull a fast one on the American folk! They will manipulate her voice to make her sound more reasonable and human on the podium!

Alexander Bolton (D) - Is very dark and morbid. Seems like he is worried about the bad polling numbers.

Those are the polling numbers we all know of.
The true internal numbers must be much, much worse.

Dead Cat Bounce coming up!

The Dems should be very concerned about a negative outcome of this debacle.

Trump will continue to rise, Hillary is maxed out, and likely going to continue to fall.

I full expect Trump is polling about 5 points below his real support in most polls... due to reverse bradley effect and attracting disenfranchised voters.

I expect now that he is officially the nominee, you will see the reverse bradley affect in polling start to disappear, and Trump will gain a few more points.

Trump is also about 12 points behind in support a republican general gets from republican voters, but is about 20 points ahead among independents... Hillary meanwhile, up until DNC Leak gate was right about where every democratic candidate is among support from their own party voters, she can’t milk any more from them, and she is at best at a Tie...

Trump will certainly gain support among republicans, and Cruz’s speech probably helped close that gap a good bit in the next round of polls.

But anyway, Trump has 12 points among republicans to gain to get to traditional support levels, Hillary is at traditional democrat support levels and at that point best she can do is manage a tie in national polls. Only way Hillary can win is if she manages to steal independents from Trump... about 15% or so of those that currently support Trump must drop him for her to win... And I don’t see any way that’s happening.

Trump will close the gap with Republican voters, and if he does, he wins and wins huge, which I suspect is the final outcome of all this. And that was without the Bernie supporters not following the DNC script. I suspect many of them will not stay home, go 3rd party or Trump... all of which weaken Hillary even further.
