The Wall Street Journal editorial board is stricken with grief.

THE NYT EDITORIAL BOARD IS ON SUICIDE WATCH...............

Zogby still alive? I haven’t heard a peep from this guy since the last election

The problem with 24/7 Trump bashing is that people get inured to it, and it loses effectiveness. What else do they have?

[Mr. Douglas]

Once it becomes “cool” to vote for Trump, he can’t lose. And that has little to do with party affiliation or position on political issues.

[Mr. Douglas]

Meh. Trump’s just catching up because he’s spending so much money.

No. Wait...

[Col Frank Slade]

The debates will probably smash all previous records of Super Bowl viewership, man on the moon, and Beatles on Ed Sullivan.

Like Ali said “ a thrilla in Manila” !

It also has the odd effect of bringing people in the middle to Trump, if only out of their need to condemn the lack of fair play. How many times have you heard a person say, “I’m no trump supporter, but what they said was wrong (or unreasonable, or not fair)...” When you hear that, you are hearing a person that, if the MSM keeps this up, will vote for Trump if only to get back at such an obviously biased press.

Hillary is the “incumbent” and “known entity” here. She would be the last one to get a bounce up from 38%.

[major-pelham]

Clearly trump improving steadily for two weeks now.

Clinton does come out of the ladies room. Huma throws in the towel.

BINGO!

Obama seemed cool to the LIVs, but does anybody believe this will EVER be cool?

The thing that I’ve noticed in many recent polls is that Hillary is dropping and people seem to be moving away from her toward undecided or minor candidates. That is hopeful as a trend because that movement is part of the process of changing. We aren’t seeing the final step, moving toward Trump, yet...but Hillary’s numbers are sagging while the transition places are growing.

Another thread if anyone is interested in reading the comments....

Pow: It’s just a 2-point race, Clinton 38%, Trump 36%

I believe no polls from the media or other phony’s, I remember how Reagan was behind the entire election process, then slammed them.

[Vigilanteman]

Older Millennials, eh? Those would be the ones which have moved out of Mom and Dad's house and have their first real job. They can no longer defer their student loans by going for yet another useless degree nor can they make it working behind the counter at Starbucks.

FWIW, all three of our daughters made it into that category by the early 20s. Not one is a bed wetting liberal. Two might be voting third party because they live in safe Trump states. Mom and Dad don't have that luxury.

[Lagmeister]

Clinton does come out of the ladies room.

Hiding is keeping her from totally tanking. Her only move left is to declare as a transgender and hide in the men's room.

Nope! Can't work... she's just as ugly being a man.

[boomop1]

Good thing her depends aren’t leaking.

[pabianice]

Kinda blows-up realclearpolitics’ Clinton +9. Hmmm.

If this was the 2008 Hillary Clinton, she would be running away with this election. But the 2016 Hillary Clinton has very serious questions about her health and the revelations in Clinton Cash are starting to make people wonder about the legality of the Clinton Foundation in the first place.
