Hmm. Didn't Hillary blame Bengahzi on a YouTube video, state there was no email server, and said that Bill Clinton has not committed Adultery with Monica? You don't seem to be setting much of a standard here.

Bloomberg: Trump Trails Clinton Among Rust Belt Middle Income Voters

Quote:
Donald Trump trails Hillary Clinton by 7 percentage points among middle-income voters in the Rust Belt, a key demographic he almost certainly needs to become president.
Likely voters with annual family incomes of $30,000 to $75,000 in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin back Clinton over Trump, 46 percent to 39 percent, the latest Purple Slice online poll for Bloomberg Politics shows.
The findings should sound an alarm for Trump because they show he's failing—at least so far—to dominate among the sort of voters thought to be more sympathetic to him. The poll also splashes cold water on suggestions that the real-estate developer and TV personality is well positioned to win in the Rust Belt.

I'm sure the fact that Michael Bloomberg unapologetically hates Donald Trump, has nothing to do with the polling results.

Correcting for Rasmussen's usual GOP bias, it's more like +3.5.

Here's a good rule of thumb for any poll going forward, though I am sure each and every single one will be discussed as long as it fits the poster's narrative - No one has a clue. That is usually the case, but this year especially. Even if one candidate has a seemingly commanding lead, that can change overnight. Trump can say something truly outrageous that has his supporters question their decision. Hillary can wind up having the FBI recommend criminal charges.

Let's take a look at that after the Sanders/Trump debate! I think that will clear up a lot of misconceptions.
