    Dick Morris has been wrong since he turned to the Dark Side (Republicans). He still thinks McCain and Romney are winning.

    I don't know but I have a bad feeling that either Trump or Clinton are going to win this election.

    I think the Democrat voter apathy and the commitment of the Trumpsters is going to make it a lot closer than people are expecting.

    It makes you wonder how these pundits continue to keep getting paid to go on TV and talk nonsense.

    The election is certainly tightening up but I still think Clinton's ground game will carry her through. Also the Reuters / Ipsos put her ahead today by 5% this matches other polls that show her lead firming up in the last few days after plunging most of the week.
    Trump has shown a comeback in some of the battleground states and has moved states that had been previously Clinton states into contested like Michigan and NH. In that regard Dick Morris has a point. If we take the most favorable Trump projections he could very well get 284. A lot of things have to break his way for that to happen though.

    Do I need to copy and paste the same tweet that shut "Nook" up?

    Nate Silver has already admitted he has no clue what is going to happen.

    Trump will win going away.

    It's better for Trump that the polls continue to say that the margin is wide for Hillary. Narrow gap means less voter apathy amongst indifferent Democrats and will likely result in a sweep of Ohio, Florida, Nevada, Wisconsin and North Carolina.

    If I was a liberal news outlet I'd just say Trump is winning outright to get people feeling the heat.

    Hilary's MSM team kept reweighting polls to D+8 and claiming independents favored Clinton(highly laughable). People started calling it out and they toned it down. The goal was to suppress Trump voters from coming out due to getting blown out but it has backfired.

    Liberal network ratings have dropped considerably and the enthusiasm from democrats is down considerably(which is strange considering minorities are very passionate Americans). Hilary was the worst possible candidate they could have run against Trump. Trump is competing in Colorado,NH,PA, Michigan,Minnesota, WI.

    Bernie would be blowing Trump out right now. This is equally the democrats fault for being where we are right now.

    At this point if people aren't already "scared" into voting against Trump (not for Hillary mind you) then they aren't gonna vote period.

    You are acting like all democrats are minorities, which just isn't even close to being true. The minority vote is coming out, especially the Hispanic vote. The polls always underestimate these votes. Democratic apathy is the only way Trump wins because actually more of the country leans that way as I've proven before.

    I'm actually more concerned that so many conservatives see how one sided it is that minorities vote democratic and think nothing of it. Like is there any introspection that goes into that?

    Interesting logic.

    The strangest thing, that any of y'all have yet to explain: the "liberal MSM (TM, sic)" has gone all in for a full week on the Hillary email story (version 17). But anyway, please tell us more about these "passionate" minorities. :D Does it have something to do with soccer, or perhaps a certain type of music?

    A large Majority of minorities vote democrat every year because liberals play race card every year to pander to them. After they get their vote they are forgotten. See Obama 2008-16

    What wasn't true about that statement? Sounds like it hurt your feelings that Obama didn't make it right the last 8 years.

    Interesting, is this what Minorities tell you? I think we would have a lot more to say about it but I wonder if many conservatives would listen. Instead we'd get the "Brainwashed." or "Pander, give out free stuff." talking point, which is rather insulting.

    If I were a minority I wouldn't vote for another 4 years of what we just had. The Dem minorities have been pandered hard by Hilary this year.
