Obama received 3.5 million votes less than in 2008, still the second highest vote total in history save for his 2008 vote total. He beat Romney by 5 million votes compared to the 10 million he beat McCain by. Romney received 61 million votes in 2012 or one million more than McCain received in 2008.

The changing demography of the country fueled by mass immigration is changing the electoral map. If we don't reduce LEGAL IMMIGRATION drastically from the current 1.1 million a year, the Dems will become the permanent majority party within a decade. 87% of legal immigrants are minorities as defined by the USG. Immigrants and minorities vote more than two to one Dem. Demography is destiny.

Don’t underestimate the Dem GOTV machine and voter fraud. I predict that NV will be stolen. Harry Reid and the SEIU will ensure that happens.

Do not be surprised that a number of angry Bernie supporters will be voting for Trump.

Plus Registered Democrats are not necessarily Clinton voters. Ever hear of Reagan Democrats? They’re back!


I am cautiously optimistic right now. We know there will be a few points lost for her with Bernie supporters. We know there will be a few points lost with rank and file Union types (blue collar Democrats or Reagan democrats as you call them). We know there will be a few points lost by democrats who don’t like her or are concerned with corruption and chaos. We know that Trump is doing far better with African-Americans than past candidates. We know there is little enthusiasm for Clinton among many.

I believe the nevertrump crowd is real in the GOP, but they are likely to be offset by the above and more rats will vote for Johnson or Stein than republicrats.

All of this bodes well for us right now despite what we are hearing in the media. On top of that, in typical fashion the MSM polls are tightening (same game every election).

With all that said, I am still very nervous! Some here call me or people who are nervous about this “concern trolls”, that is BS. Step away from FR for a little bit and the race suddenly looks far different. Both of those viewpoints cannot be right. We will find out soon enough.

They can’t steal it if it isn’t close.
