As Trump stumbles, Clinton weighs a striking choice: Expand the map or stick to the plan
Washington Post ^

Posted on 10/16/2016 9:05:17 PM PDT by Heff

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton faces a striking choice in the final three weeks of the campaign: to expand her efforts to states that Democrats haven’t won in a generation, or to stay a current course that, if conditions hold, would deliver her a resounding electoral college victory.

After two tumultuous weeks focused on Donald Trump’s behavior toward women, Clinton is ahead in nearly all of the key battleground states where her campaign has directed the most resources, according to many recent polls. But some once-solidly Republican states — notably Arizona, Georgia and Utah — now also appear to be in play.

This from Rasmussen on Friday ---

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey of Likely U.S. Voters shows Trump with 43% support to Clinton’s 41%. That’s unchanged from yesterday. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson picks up six percent (6%) of vote, and Green Party nominee Jill Stein has two percent (2%) backing. Four percent (4%) like another candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

My thought is they post this BS so that if the Dems are able to steal the election via massive voter fraud, the masses will be lulled into the compliant citizens mentioned in one of the Podesta emails.

From this article: “But some once-solidly Republican states — notably Arizona, Georgia and Utah — now also appear to be in play.”

Headline to a post a few below this one: “CBS News/YouGov Utah Poll: Trump Leads by 17 Points”

So either one of the biggies in the MSM is full of crap, or all of the biggies in the MSM are full of crap, but its most certainly NOT the case that everyone in the MSM knows what they’re talking about.

My take (FWIW)? More psy-ops by the establishment elites.

Think about this. The Bernie people who just hate her read this stuff and decide to sit it out or vote Jill Stein. I think this is a dumb strategy for them. They need people to come out and vote.

......IS THERE ANY TRUTH TO THIS?

It is hard to believe that Trump’s supporters actually believe all the sexual harassment lies put out by the enemies of the Constitution.

Need to figure how to make the scumbag mainstream media pay dearly for their lies. We don’t lie, so why should scumbags like the Washyer Pest get away with it on a daily basis?

I think I am a pretty common sense guy and for the life of me I cannot see this country voting for this woman. I know the MSM has done a masterful job of hiding all her evil. The pollsters have done all they can to pump her up in the minds of the voting public while they have torn Trump apart over his”women”. I have a hard time believing the voting women have had it so good for the past 8 years that they would vote to continue with more of the same or probably worse. I WILL NOT buy that this is over by ANY means!

Agree!

And the article went further saying: and Arizona, where a couple of high-profile surrogates are being deployed this week: Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) on Tuesday and Chelsea Clinton on Wednesday.

If Chelsea's a high-profile surrogate ..... it's over for Hillary. LOL!

The same rag that writes this propaganda published a poll showing it a dead heat with a sample that had 32% more Democrats than Republicans.

How does one expand the map when you are resting most of the time?
Too tired to campaign. Hillary is AWOL from the campaign trail.

No offense to the poster, but MODS, can we pull this BS article. I think it is crap and meant to do nothing more then suppress the vote and demoralize the faithful. That’s my vote. I did post Drudges warning of this but did not post the article.
