Funny how these polls are all wrong . . . until Mr. Trump is shown to lead Hillary. Then it's all legit. A small detail: the margin of error exceeds Mr. Trump's lead.

I agree with you that no poll for an election that is to take place 8 months from now is likely to be that accurate. On the other hand, they are good for showing momentum over time. And in Hillary's case, that is mostly down. It's not the best news for her at this point.
This early in the game, any head to head match between Clinton and any GOP contender in Ohio, Florida or nationally is meaningless. Wait for the GOP nominee and the head to head debates and then those polls have some value.
Well, so much for those precious Supreme Court nominations. Guess the court is heading towards the conservative route thanks to DWS backing of Hillary.
Does this say that Kasich should be Trump's VP pick?
I live in a very Democratic area of Ohio.. Youngstown..
I have yet to see one Clinton sign up.. I know its early etc, but I see Trump and Sanders signs.. Sanders usually hand drawn using crayons, but thats a different topic..
Let me tell you, I live in a very Republican area. The only sign I have seen is that of Walmart. Walmart for POTUS 2016!!!!!!!
I can see the white working class causing Trump to win both Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania. They havent had a candidate like him before and only Sanders can bring the white working class voters back to the Dems as he has shown so far this election.

Who cares? She still destroys Trump in pretty much every head to head general poll. She would still easily win a general against Trump without winning OH even if that poll was correct.
I remember at this point in 2008 that Hillary was crushing Obama with white working class voters in the primaries. Pundits told us that Obama would have a helluva time carrying states like Pennsylvania and Ohio in the November general election because of this weakness with the WWC. As we know, things changed.
And then there's the July 1988 poll that had Dukakis up by 17 points over George HW Bush...just 3 and a half months before the general election.
It's way too early to smugly predict what will happen in November 2016. Things have a way of changing.
Ok it's a poll and it's supposed to mean everything?
In 2008, Hillary won by 10% when she ran against Obama
Obama then went on to carry Ohio in both elections
I don't see how this poll means Hillary will lose Ohio
Not to mention that in order to win the general election Trump would need to win 65+ percent of the white vote, which is obviously not going to happen.
