    Trump is done. He started to walk off an interview just a bit ago. The guy is beaten and he doesn't know how to handle it.

    Also, MVP is right, HRC will get elected. But in my 20 years of voting and being an adult, there is really nothing that a POTUS has done that has directly impacted my life, negatively or positively. The only thing I can think of is the first time home buyers stimulus of $8000.00 that Obama initiated just after the housing collapse. The $8000.00 didnt help us buy, but it was a nice check to get a month or two after we closed. Other than that, the life that my wife and I have made for us and our family has been the direct result of our work, and nothing that any republican or democrat has done.

    I know taxes directly affect us, both local and federal, but that's a given. Not going away anytime soon. We both work and have good employer based health insurance. Sure the costs go keep going up, but we are responsible and work hard so we have been able to stay above that rising cost.... so far. Regardless of who wins, in 4 years, I would want to know how your life was drastically changed, ruined or brought to significant prosperity because of the POTUS.

      WW3 with Russia might have an affect on many people's lives.

      I'd argue NAFTA had an affect on many people's lives (maybe not yours), TPP will have an affect on many people's lives.

      Increasing H1Bs may have a negative affect on my career - something the POTUS would probably approve of.

          H1Bs tend to bring in foreign workers for skilled positions at a lower cost (not the intended use for an H1B - but how they exploit it)

          It wouldn't displace me, but they would help keep my wage stagnant.

            In IT, the consultants coming over from India, etc... are used to working

            long, long hours, far more than 8 hrs a day...

            companies don't/didn't have to pay for their med insurance...

            etc etc etc.

            Put a lot of people out of work. Not me though, I spent my career designing and restructuring

            software written by so many foreign incompetent in English and English design.

              Sorry fellows but whistling past the graveyard doesn't move the agenda ahead one iota. Fuck the polls.

                Trump is winning in the IBP poll which was the most accurate in 2012 right?

                And Emerson poll had him up in PA the other day.

                The race isn't over yet, especially with papa wikileaks

                    538's current odds are just shy of 6:1.

                    As for the OP... yeah, there was this outlier, but Ronnie was ahead a half-dozen points or so in most polls. Plus:

                    • The only Presidential debate of that race took place on October 28th, seven days before the Nov 4th election.
                    • Reagan won that debate by knock-out in the "there-you-go-again" round.

                    There is absolutely no parallel to the 2016 race.

                      actually, there is, in the minds of many, many, many American voters.

                      They are tired of the crap. Carter flubbed up too much, only lasted

                      4 yrs. Obamao had the black vote, and lasted eight.

                      The pendulum has to swing now, back to the other direction, or it may break.

                        what I'm saying is, I noticed a pattern about this long ago - the American people

                        see a need to switch the gov to the other party.

                        back and forth.

                        Obamao has been a dismal, divisive, dishonest, childish and beligerent, and anti-Constitution president.

                        American must have a change now. Trump is rellective of that, so was Bernie Sanders.

                        But sanders got waylaid by the corrupt DNC-Clinton mafia machine, who sunk to new kgb type of lows.

                        The political pendulum will rightfully swing back away from the last miserable, failed eight racist/class warfare years.

                        I believe the majority of America knows if it doesn't, America could break. There will be no way to stop the

                        corruption in our gov in another four years of obaMao and higgardly.

                          For a guy that posts about politics so much you are so far in the forest you can't see the trees. Congress is the government, the judiciary and executive branches of government are the face.

                            except that under obaMao, he has usurped his authority and bypassed Congress.

                            and our Judiciary is on the verge of being corrupted for about 30 years by putting

                            dishonest, extreme liberal activist judges on the supreme court.

                            And most dems ini Congress play along with Obamao and higgardly, or maybe their careers, or maybe their lives,

                            will end.

                            the Injustice dept, FBI, EPA, NEA, ATF, ... the list keeps growing as more and more wilileaks leak..

                            these depts have obaMao loyalists who will play ball, too. Holder, Lynch, Sebelius, Comey....

                            it's like the nazi party. If you aren't in, you are in big, serious trouble.
