Clinton's approval rating rises to nearly 50% in this poll. Trump still around 30%. His attacks on gold star mothers will not help him much going forward either.

Obama lead Romney every single day in the 2012 RCP average baring October 9th and October 22nd.

I agree.

Just as they did by helping the DNC to hide the disruptions at their convention the MSM will do what it can to help HC by putting a positive spin on the numbers.

Never understood the so called "convention bump." Put on 4 days of lies and people come to your side. Anyway, this too shall pass.

It would if Trump would shut up about the Khans and talk about the economy instead.

If not Khan, the media would find or create some other issue.

For sure and it will continue this way until election day. The DNC knows full well the MSM has got to carry HC across the finish line. Without the MSM in their corner HC will most certainly lose.

Then stop taking the bait.

Focus on the economy, ISIS etc, if he keeps getting distracted about Trump U, the Khans etc, this election is over.

This is music to my ears. I absolutely LOVE Hillary Clinton. We need her. She's supremely qualified and will make an outstanding first WOMAN president!

The 2012 state polls were correct the whole time. It was only a fraction of polls, Ras and Gallup, that were bad in 2012. It was the conservatives that were unskewing them that were the ones who were wrong. How do you not remember that?
