How many thousands of Latinos do you know?

Trump will still win by surprisingly large numbers.

This sounds like one of those carnival gypsy fortuneteller predictions, which actually goes hand in hand with Trump the snake oil salesman or carnival barker persona.

No. He has done nothing but play to his base for months now, and it shows. He can't move beyond the personal gratification he gets from a room full of his supporters hanging on his every word.

I think people are underestimating that there may be a considerable number of people not showing their support, and that could be for either Hillary or Trump. This election has been very polarizing, so it is understandable. I work in downtown Detroit and spend a considerable time there, and didn't even feel comfortable enough to have a Romney sticker in 2012, much less a Trump one.

There might be a few people who live in deep blue areas who won't admit they're voting for Trump. I can understand that. For some reason, I seem to pick very conservative towns, so I try not to discuss politics with neighbors. That's probably one reason I post so much here. I need to vent!

You sure there isn't a Trump supporter who's too shy to blather on about Clinton's emails or doesn't take every opportunity to call her crooked?

I am so glad the election is before Thanksgiving. A dear friend is married to a nitwit and, of course, she's hauling him to Thanksgiving dinner. Last year, he would not shut about emails. When Romney ran it was all about moochers.

Perhaps this year he'll be one of those "shy" Trump supporters.

I can only hope.

No. It was close, and Comey's announcement probably gave Clinton a slight push over the top in blue states where she was starting to wobble.

I do think there may be some silent voters for both candidates in some of the swing states but they probably cancel eachother out.

I could also see him getting a bit more of the black vote than expected (like 8% instead of 5%, something like that).
