LOL

So now you're a "Hope and Change" person eh?

Good luck - you're going to REALLY need it.
I've said it all along, Trump is going to get CRUSHED (as he deserve to).

Yeah, that doesn't work. It's like the belief that people hearing the election is won on the east coast won't vote on the west coast. It's pure fantasy.

No, I won't take that bet. I'm saying that Hillary has enough bad stuff about her that Trump has a chance to provoke her. Enough to put her on the defensive. I'd bet he doesn't succeed ... unless the odds are very favorable.

The more folks see of Trump, the more eager they are to get to the polls. I don't see the folks in Florida staying home.

Perhaps Trump supporters will get discouraged and stay home. "Why bother? We're going to get whipped anyway."

We'll have to see, won't we?

Hillary Clinton’s lead drops to 2 points over Donald Trump in N.H., new poll shows

Quote:
Less than five weeks until Election Day, Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump has disintegrated in the swing state of New Hampshire, a new survey finds.

The Suffolk University/Boston Globe poll surveyed New Hampshire likely voters earlier this week and found Clinton with a slim lead over Trump, 44 percent to 42 percent. That’s well within the survey’s margin of error of 4.4 percent.

Here are the CNN and NBC polls of the 2012 Presidential race from the final six weeks of that contest:

CNN, 11/02/12-11/04/-12 - TIE
NBC, 11/01/12-11/03/12 - OBAMA +1
NBC, 10/17/12-10/20-12 - TIE
CNN, 09/28/12-09/30/12 - OBAMA +3

Actual Election Result - OBAMA +4

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - General Election: Romney vs. Obama

Takeaways - One was well within the MoE, while the other three were reasonable close but definitely off. Every single one of them showed Romney doing better than he did.

Of course, the perpetually-wrong Snowball7 has other excuses for whining about CNN and NBC...

This post epitomizes your detachment from reality. You just make things up because they make you feel better. CNN and NBC have a track record of polls that demonstrate a pro-Republican bias. I have posted that data. Your response?

"Nuh uh!"

In this manner - your insistence on believing only what gratifies your desires, regardless of all evidence to the contrary - you are the perfect Trump voter.

That is interesting indeed. Quite a drop. For those interested, here is the poll itself:

I do wonder at the rather small sample size (500). Seems like many pollsters are conducting smaller and smaller samples (I had always read that 1,200 or so should be used). Anyway, it does seem like Ms. Clinton has certainly lost support in New Hampshire since last May, when she was some 20 points up.

The polls in 2012 had Obama substantially ahead Until he lost the first debate. Obama then took a dive, never to underdog, but never at the heights of September in polls.

Turnout and what Johnson/Stein voters do are the issues, not undecided voters.

Yeah, right. Ten polls with Clinton up 5, 8, 10 points and now one comes out with it at 2 and it is taken seriously? This is right and all the others are wrong? Clinton will in NH, end of story.
