we don't know. The media is covering this nonstop. I certainly hope it doesn't change those last minute undecideds as a Trump "presidency" is just unbelievable.

margin. Don't turn on me because I am worried about this ridiculous witch hunt. I get it when DUers point out low-count "concern only" posters. But condemning those of us with thousands of posts over a decade seems misguided to me. I have always supported Clinton and obviously still do support her. This incident makes me furious because it seems like a blatant partisan attack.

However, if EVERY undecided voter in the battleground states go for Trump....he STILL WON'T WIN....
Unless 1 of our "solid" Blue States turn Red he can't pull it off... I'm really more concerned about the house and senate race...

It seems like a lot people are going to say the election was stolen (by the FBI...), that could be a huge controversy. since she was leading by a lot before this new email investigation was announced.

Then if the investigation doesn't find anything illegal that would make it even worse.

Honestly.. this whole thing will change very few minds.. If anything it's pissing off Dems and will motivate the ones who sit on their butts on election day to get out there.


Let me add.. If it doesn't die down I'd bet my house on something extremely dirty coming out about trump boy.. then the focus will be all over his creepiness again like it should.

Donald Trump hosted wild parties with sex, cocaine and underage models: report

..... Trump allowed the attendees to do whatever drugs they wanted, the photographer said. As guests partied hard on coke and top-shelf liquor, the mogul would stroll from room to room and hook up with girls.

“He'd wander off with a couple girls. I saw him. He was getting laid like crazy," the photographer said. "Trump was at the heart of it. He loved the attention and in private, he was a total f---ing beast.” .....

Porn star Jessica Drake claims Donald Trump offered her $10G, use of his private jet for sex

Donald Trump’s offer of $10,000 and the use of his private jet couldn’t turn a porn star into a prostitute.

Jessica Drake — whose credits include “Sex for Sale” and “Think Pink” — claims she rejected the billionaire’s crude come-ons during a 2006 golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, Calif.

“This is not acceptable behavior for anyone — much less a presidential candidate,” the adult film star said ........

Nothing is baked into the price. Correction: Normalcy is baked into the price. When normalcy leaves, prices shift. That's true in the stock market and wherever wisdom of the crowd is applied. This price will shift and not in a friendly direction.

Sudden change that is viewed as damaging to one side, and causes the other side to rush to the podium to loudly exploit. Wall to wall network coverage for days. Then somehow we await the polls while assuming not much actually happened. That may sound swell but it's not reality. Hillary will likely take a bigger hit than current conventional wisdom allows. That's why you build a lead in the first place. Late comebacks are possible in primaries but hellish in general elections, where not everybody is prioritizing the same thing so percentages are more rigid. I think she narrowly hangs on.
