...everything I have predicted so far has come true, especially in the matter of Sheldon Adelson lining up behind Trump.

The "talking point" from the Clinton campaign has basically been that Trump is a clown and they are going to whip his ass.

I'm not convinced of that.

See, the problem is that Trump's followers never question the authenticity of his words...they just accept him at face value.

What I see ahead is an attack on Clinton that will make the Kerry Swift Boating atrocities seem like a Kumbaya moment.

I'm not kidding...anyone who thinks that Trump "won't go there" on ANY aspect of Clinton's past and present hasn't been paying attention.

And I generally don't follow or believe in polls, but the current RCP average is Clinton +5.7 (with a low of +2 from Gravis and Rasmussen, and a high of +13 from CNN/ORC. (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton-5491.html)

For me, those numbers are too close for comfort.
