One good thing about Trump being up in the polls right now

when his polls are looking better, he feels more comfortable to say whatever he wants. When the polls are not in his favor, he pulls back and listens to his campaign. He'll be calling Hillary a "bitch" any day now.

so called. CNN seems to be all in with really bogus polls. What do you expect from a narrow targeted group or groups. Bogus.

The polls are real they were real two weeks ago when Hillary was up 6-8 points everywhere and now they are real when Trump is up 1-2 everywhere. The real problem is that the sampling being done based on a 2008 and 2012 turnout when Hillary does not have that same level of enthusiasm that a great campaigner like Obama had. So I think Trump is up even bigger than the current polls are showing.

That said, it is incumbent on all Democratic party members to get out and find persuadable people to join in with Hillary before it's too late.

... at the debates. All that talk about her being frail and weak has lowered expectations. Old Tang Top won't know what hit him.

Going out on a limb, but I can't shake the
possiblility that we're being prepped for a
stolen election.

Put out polls that show Trump close or ahead
when he really isn't. Suppress the vote as much
as possible, and have you're friendly officials
and hackers (Russian very possibly) do the rest.

And of course keep up the nonstop media
manipulation.

If Anonymous hadn't unhacked Ohio, Obama
would have lost.

The Dems need to get their act together quick!

I really don't think this race is close at all, but
you'd never know it with all the polling bs and
other hoopla.

The Reeps have SO much fucking money being
thrown their way and a nonstop Trump media to
prepare the populace for an upset.

Thisvwould be such a disaster that I'm not sure
the country or the world would ever recover!

Tipping my steel reinforced tinfoil hat and hoping
that people can talk this dowm ... but I'm not
very hopeful right now.
