Looks like Trump is surging in the wrong direction...by the day of the first debate he'd closed a once considerable gap, and fivethirtyeight had it 54.8/45.2 in favor of Clinton taking the election, with Trump's numbers increasing and Clinton's on a slide.
Today? 63.8/36.2, or a near ten point bump for Hillary and about the same slide for Trump.
You couldn't wait to post that Trump is trailing :chuckle:Update: 5308

I wouldn't count on much. VPs tend to not hurt you at large and boost you in some key state or region else. Some, like Palin, can work against a ticket. But they won't overcome whatever is in play for the senior part of the ticket. I'm not doing a celebration dance, but absent a remarkable turn around in debate fortunes, I think this is going to look like Romney.I think Trump will get a boost in the polls from Mike Pence's performance
Trump has a path to 270 !!! Don't count him out yet -I wouldn't count on much. VPs tend to not hurt you at large and boost you in some key state or region else.

Thursday, October 06, 2016 Donald Trump has gained another point on Hillary Clinton in the wake of Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate. The latest Rasmussen Reports White House Watch telephone and online survey of Likely U.S. Voters finds Trump with a 43% to 41% lead over Clinton. Yesterday, he was ahead 42% to 41%. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson again earns eight percent (8%) of the vote, while three percent (3%) prefer the Green Party’s Jill Stein. Two percent (2%) like some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.) Trump has been edging back all week. He was five points ahead of Clinton going into their first debate last week but then fell behind by three after widespread criticism of his debate performance. By this past Monday, however, the two major party candidates were in a near tie, and Trump has gained a point on Clinton each day since then. |
Yeah, but not for the reason some people might think. It's time to draft Hunstman from the floor and discard this guy before another election is gift wrapped for the Democrats.You couldn't wait to post that Trump is trailing :chuckle:
