I am being honest here... Not a good ad for her.

A new Florida poll has Trump in the lead.  Let's all jump to conclusions because one poll put Trump in the lead.

Two things I noticed that made me question the polls results.  The majority of those polled voted for Romney in 2012 - Florida went to Obama, so I question their sample.  And nearly half said they had someone who served in the military in their household.  Something like 7-8% of the country has worn the uniform.

Flagg, did you see the NYT story about polling. It's interesting. They gave their own raw data to 4 pollsters and got, of course, four different results.

Interesting how it works. I learned some things that will make me look at poll results with a little more scepticism.

If I'm reading this right and Obama knowingly sent emails to Clinton's server under a fake name to by pass record keeping laws, this could be a bombshell.  I guess we'll see what happens, but if true could be a coverup from the top.

I didn't. Thanks for sharing. The only way to have an idea is to look at the results of several polls taken over the same time.

Looks like dems will take the white house and Senate. There really needs to be a rule against congresional redistricting, I think we can all agree on that right? IMO, it's worse than money in politics.

I'm guessing a letdown.

Trump will play it safe to look presidential. Hillary will play it safe to look likable.

But, Trump will continue to lie since Lester Holt appears to have no authority to fact-check, according to the debate commission. Hillary will continue to flimsily explain the email issue.

Unless someone does something royally stupid (likely Trump hurling an insult or Hillary having a coughing fit), it probably will not in actuality matter much.

But the biggest spin tomorrow will come from the Trump camp saying "well, he didn't shit himself, so he looked presidential."
