Insiders: Hillary's speech was a winner

“The narrative of division is bogus. The hecklers were never Democrats to begin with,” said an Iowa Democrat.

By Steven Shepard

PHILADELPHIA — Hillary Clinton’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention helped to ease party insiders’ anxiety after a week in which Donald Trump rode a modest bounce from the GOP convention into a neck-and-neck race with Clinton in the general election.

That’s according to The POLITICO Caucus — a panel of activists, strategists and operatives in 11 key battleground states. Three quarters of Democratic insiders said following Clinton’s speech closing the Democratic convention here Thursday night they are “very confident” about her chances of defeating Trump in November.

Trump “will never again be even in this race,” predicted one Iowa Democrat — who, like all respondents, completed the survey anonymously. Added a Nevada Democrat: “I bet she gets a bump [in the polls].”

“Hillary hit a home run tonight,” added a North Carolina Democrat. “It was refreshing to actually hear a candidate discuss what she will actually do as president. The American people heard her load and clear. They will elect her in November.”

Let me guess... Hillary’s speech was actually a “whiner.”

Insiders like her? Not a surprise.

Outsiders say......enough of the Clinton parasites.

Someone needs to tell these Clinton people its time to go home to Arkansas and shut the hell up.

They lorded it all over Arkansas as governor....they had eight years in the Oval Office screwing up our country.

Hillary wormed her way into the Senate, then she screwed up the State Dept.

Their entire time in govt the parasitic Clintons became multi-billionaires.....grabbing anything that wasn't nailed don.

That's enough.

Isn’t that the same as Kool-Aid drinkers?

Yet another proofreading problem, or a freud-o.

There is an explanation for this.

Politico got their hands on Grade-A LSD from some university lab and spiked the drinks they gave the “insiders”.

Then the interviews began.

"They?" I think this article is by one person, and the so-called "poll" never took place. Name names, or it didn't happen.

I can write a poll of anonymous DEM operators too, and come to the opposite conclusion - that her speech bombed with the audience, and she is going to lose the election.

No surprise the crowd liked it. She pandered to them (free college, kill Wall St, etc) and they are too stupid to realize it was all lies. Most people in the real world are not going to fall for it.

Whoever let this spelling error slip may have to get his resume ready. I am afraid his day at Politico is numbered.

To illustrate the Politico sleight of hand, they published a similar

In that article they asked their Republican insiders the question “Did Donald Trump’s speech make you more or less confident about his chances, or did it have no impact?” The answer: 56.6% More 24.4% No Impact 20.0% Less

So why didn’t they ask the Dem insiders the same question about Hillary’s speech? I’m sure they did but they chose not to publish the results. I wonder why. Instead they show us a the results of a more generic question about how may believe she will win.

Politico...you’re dishonesty is so easy to spot.

Now if I were truly cynical, I might suspect that the original article did have the response to the same question they asked Republicans, but the editor at the DNC drew a line through it and told them to put something in that made Hillary’s speech look better.

They’re delusional but that’s why they’re insiders.

Half of Democrats hate her and Independents don’t like her.

Sure, her speech fixed all her problems.

That’s what they believe in the Beltway.

The American people heard her load and clear.

Sometimes, even on Propagandico, the truth slips out.
