Clinton Lead Over Trump Narrows to 3 Points

deacon blues · #1 08-07-2016, 05:02 PM

For as awful of a week as Trump has had, at the end of the week Hillary is only up by three points. Although the mainstream media has already declared the Trump candidacy dead already, Hillary is such an awful nominee, she can't keep a lead. While Hillary rallies draw paltry numbers, DT draws tens of thousands. This race is far from over.

Depends on which poll you look at. The average as of yesterday had Clinton +7. None were tied or had Trump leading. Closest was an LA Times poll, which had Clinton +1. Biggest lead is McClatchy at +15 for Clinton, NBC +9 and ABC +8.

The Reuters poll was an online poll; the McClatchy poll was telephonic of registered voters.

Which poll showed this?

New Monmouth Poll: Clinton +13 among likely voters.

"Currently, 46% of registered voters support Clinton and 34% back Trump, with 7% supporting Libertarian Gary Johnson, and 2% backing Jill Stein of the Green Party. Support among likely voters stands at 50% Clinton, 37% Trump, 7% Johnson, and 2% Stein."

For me I think the polls always go to the left. Carter/ Reagan were neck and neck going into the election. Result ----Reagan landslide!!

Ok, I'll pay them to Trump. Don't get the tithe connection to the polls.

What logical reason is there to believe any so called poll is anything other than a completely made up number?

The polls tell us the chocolate ration has been increased today...

No matter who the nominee might be, they would lose to Hillary. Rubio, Cruz, Bush...you name it. Somehow the Democrats have succeeded, with help from the media, in brainwashing the majority of voters into holding the Republicans to a completely different standard than they do Democrats. If any other GOP candidate but Trump were the nominee right now, the media would simply drum up some non-story (like they did Rick Perry, Tom Delay Gov. McDonald of Virginia) and harp on it continually while ignoring the oceans of Hillary's crimes. The difference between Trump and the other candidates is that he will actually fight back. The other candidates would play the same ol' "meek and mild" game and allow themselves to get beat up. Then a week after the election, the media would announce that there was nothing to the story and that the GOP candidate had been cleared of any wrong doing.

The American people fall for this time and again. This time they have 25% of Republicans cheering on the Democrats' tactics. "NeverTrump"!

It's over folks. No matter what comes out about Hillary, no matter what Wikileaks produces. no matter if Hillary has a stroke and is not seen on the campaign trail again until election day, she will be your next President.

I further predict, as I have said already numerous times, we are now past the time we can keep our country and constitution without the shedding of blood. Most Christians label that as "rebellion". Yet they claim to love those rebellious Founders of ours. Who do they think they are? Are they better than those boys who suffered and died at Valley Forge? You want to keep America? You will have to fight for her. Shame on you if you don't.

The excuse train is rolling! Rigged!

I don't believe Rubio, Cruz or even Kasich would be losing to Hillary. The reason Trump is losing is one of two things: 1) he's a bumbling fool who can't stick to the message and says/does stupid things accidently; or 2) he's a bumbling fool who has purposefully done and said things to toss the election.

A true conservative candidate, who would stick to the message would be leading by double digits right now.

Hillary has given gift after gift and Trump has screwed up each opportunity.

I'm not killing anyone, when common sense could turn the country around. People heard "wall" and "deportation of illegals" and fell for it, much like hope and change of obama.
