Welcome.

Hello, another oldie here... get me my cane. :-) Wanted to stop by and say hi. Becky told me this place is up and running again, and it looks great!

Hi and welcome. I am Cody.

It's almost impossible to predict, as volatile as this election season has been. I'll say Clinton, just because of her electoral advantage.

Not 'counting my chickens', just using basic electoral math. Not saying he can't win- but he WILL have to run the table on Election Day. He could take Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Iowa, and Nevada but lose NH and lose the race in a nail-biter. And considering how woefully mismanaged his ground game is in comparison to the Clinton machine, I just don't see him winning. Also, the lead you're stating is from the recent FOX poll. I've seen others that have Clinton's lead at 9 and 12 points- but I don't think her lead is that wide. I suspect the race, as it stands right now, shows Clinton with a 5 or 6 point lead. Support isn't going from her to Trump; we are seeing third and fourth party support bleed out and go to the major candidates.

He can't and won't, the end. For better or worse, I just do not think he will win the election. He would have to pick up Florida, Ohio, North Carolina, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, and the third district of Maine. None of those are optional — he needs all of them. And I just don't see how he would get there, considering the polling trend lines and the fact that early voting has been going on for weeks now.

Hi Ben.

Sounds normal to me. But I have an odd sense of humor.

No.

Anything related to Stephen King — the books, the movies, the fan blogs, the podcasts, the collectibles, the man himself. I know it all. Literally all of it. The presidencies of Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, and Carter. The '60s and '70s is my favorite era in American history, and I love politics, so naturally I tend to hone in on those guys.
