Ahahahaha! Look at all this wishful thinking. Dream on, suckers.
I still expect Clinton to win, but that FBI announcement last Friday has definitely hurt her campaign.
It seems Trump is finally listening to his more rational advisers and mostly staying on message, which I think is really working to his advantage.
Trump still has a much narrower path to victory, but the Clinton camp has gotta be concerned to see him take leads in some Virginia and Colorado polls-- that hasn't happened in months.
If he can pull ahead in Florida, Clinton will really be in trouble. I think she's up by 2 at this point.
If Trump ends up winning Florida by a hair, I'm gonna strangle whoever told sally she could't complain if she didn't vote!
Meanwhile, I imagine the FBI and NSA are working major overtime right now preparing for a possible uprising by people who seriously believe that a Trump loss will be the result of victory having been "stolen" from him via rigged election. For that reason primarily, I hope Clinton wins by a large and clear margin.
The 3 percenters and other militia groups claim that they will conduct armed protests if Trump loses and some of them also claim they will go to polling stations, armed, for the purpose of preventing 'voter fraud'. Republican and Democratic polling managers really do not want to see that happen. Hopefully, it won't.
Yesterday, the inside of a Mississippi black church was torched and the words "Vote Trump" had been scrawled on the outside of the church (it could have been done by anybody, but it's concerning regardless).
Usually, the militia groups talk big about national uprisings and can't organize or stop fighting among themselves well enough to carry anything off. But, I'm glad our national and state agencies prepare for the unusual. It's been an unusual election cycle, that's for sure.
