We can talk all day, but Romney's chance of winning at this time was 15-20%. Trump beats that by a good 10%. Wasn't the point you were making hinged on Romney having a nearly 70% chance of winning in September? That number looks to be proven false.
No, I never said Romney had a 70% chance of winning. Where did I say that?
Trump made a good point. Our vets should be able to go to any doctor or any hospital for treatment. I will never understand the need for VA hospitals.
My dad refused to go to the VA. He said as long as I can remember, that it was a death sentence to go there.
It might be free to me, but you get what you pay for.
The left is going nuts over last night's town hall. Just google "Lauer Clinton" and there are pages of articles completely trashing Matt Lauer. Many of them are furious that he asked her questions about the email scandal. That's amazing to me that this would surprise them. They must live in a bubble. Or maybe they were just expecting a main stream TV personality to just throw her softball questions.
So essentially you are saying that no one on the GOP side would have had a chance against Hillary (I'll agree with that) since Trump was the "best" choice and he's STILL losing.
That 10% chance you mention for Romney last time around was true on election day, but not in September.
Found a message board with a post from 9/13/2012 (just about 4 years ago to the day) that quotes 538 giving Obama a 64.3% chance of winning, so apparently Trump is running a bit behind where Romney was at this stage. Considering that Romney lost, that's not looking too good for Trump.
Edit: I skimmed that and thought you said Romney had a 64% chance of winning.
Regardless, point still stands - Romney had a 15-20% chance of winning. Thus, Trump is outperforming him. By mid September, Obama had a ~80% chance of winning...peaking at nearly 90% by late September.

That poll wasn't done after the Town Hall and shows him losing overall....
