    Trump bounces into the lead | CNN Politics
    http://edition.cnn.com/2016/07/25/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-poll/index.html
    The bounce is back.



    Donald Trump comes out of his convention ahead of Hillary Clinton in the race for the White House, topping her 44% to 39% in a four-way matchup including Gary Johnson (9%) and Jill Stein (3%) and by three points in a two-way head-to-head, 48% to 45%. That latter finding represents a 6-point convention bounce for Trump, which are traditionally measured in two-way matchups.

      Unless they find out that Trump himself was involved I don't see it affecting any votes. Heck if they indict any of the Repug establishment it might actually help the Dumpster.
      I'd be more worried about the Bernie supporters staying home.
      It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

        Other polls put it at dead even.

        Glad to see the Trump cheerleader on. The RNC is over.

        BTW his lead has already evaporated in several polls.

        A new Economist poll has Hillary ahead by 5%.

          FiveThirtyEight election forecast shows Trump ahead
          http://www.politico.com/story/2016/07/fivethirtyeight-trump-winning-226114
          Silver's "now-cast," updated with fresh surveys on Monday, shows Trump's current likelihood of winning at 57.5 percent, compared with Clinton’s 42.5 percent.



          Political analyst Nate Silver’s latest forecast has Republican nominee Donald Trump with a 15 percentage point-greater chance of beating presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton if the election were held today, according to FiveThirtyEight.
          .
          "It's not Trump's convention bounce per se that should worry Dems. That's pretty normal. It's how it became so close to begin with," Silver tweeted. "Trump trailed by around 3 points in our forecasts a week ago. Typical convention bounce is 4 points. So you end up at Trump +1 or so."

          "Don't think people are really grasping how plausible it is that Trump could become president. It's a close election right now," he warned last week.

            Mindless.

            She will increase her lead again and you will vanish. After the DNC, her lead will go back to where it should be I think. Trump has already seen his lead evaporate.

            I take it Bill, Michelle and Elizabeth all had something to do with that.

              And never have I seen someone want to ruin this country like this cheerleader.

              Hillary has a significant advantage when it comes to the electoral college and demographics. I remember when Mitt Romney was leading in many national polls too lmao.

                    Entertainment value of this election will be the best one yet.


                    Donald Trump has a new, derisive nickname for his Democratic rival: Hillary “Rotten†Clinton.

                    Addressing backers Monday in an overly warm ballroom in Roanoke, Virginia, the Republican presidential nominee lashed out at Clinton as low-energy and needing naps. He argued that she dropped her maiden name, Rodham, because it sounds like “rotten.â€

                    “Why did she get rid of it? Hillary Rotten Clinton, Rotten Clinton. Hillary Rotten Clinton, right?†Trump told the crowd. “Maybe that’s why, it’s too close.â€
                    .
                    During the Virginia rally, the billionaire businessman unleashed a barrage of attacks against Clinton in light of the latest scandal to overshadow her run for office. He accused Clinton of disloyalty for not protecting outgoing Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz following the release of hacked emails that suggest some DNC staffers favored Clinton over Sanders.

                    Trump claims Wasserman Schultz “worked very hard to rig the system†in Clinton’s favor, and Clinton responded by throwing her “under the bus.â€

                        Democratic Party platform proposes two constitutional amendments
                        https://www.yahoo.com/news/democratic-party-platform-proposes-two-constitutional-amendments-193005006.html
                        The official Democratic Party platform is out, and compared with their Republican opponents, the Democrats are calling for fewer constitutional amendments in the near future.


                        You like republicans? Read what Trump and the GOP will bring as far as amendments. Outlawing the right for women to choose, "allowing states to define marriage" and other crap like that.

                        This just makes everything more serious. All republicans care about are religion, gays and abortion. Their stupid ****ing platform doesn't even address anything. Just another year of the same lame attempt to drum up support for their social conservative bigotry. They will fail.

                        All they do is step over people and citizens they hate. Dirty fools.

                              At least some of them are going Stein. Not sure how widespread the sentiment is, but I've got a very vocal former Sandernista turned Steiny in my FB news feed.
                              If his sentiments are echoes by a significant number of former Sandernistas you may see the rise of some viable 3rd parties as a result of the current farce.
