Holy poo poo. If Trump is tied in Georgia he is getting wrecked.

Anecdotal: recently there has been less Trump talk from people I know around here. I dunno if support is waning, but enthusiasm sure is.

I thought Clinton was ahead in Georgia recently.

She has jumped ahead a couple of times, but within MOE generally. Georgia will probably be very close.

It's odd that Clinton is doing so much better in state polls than in the national polls. Could it be her unopposed ad spending in swing states is having an effect there?

9/12/2009 would be the date I would pin the death of the republican party on, actually

Palin, et al, were early symptoms of the disease but the party could have still been saved and the extreme elements within the party likely would have never metastasized if McCain had won. People went so goddamn insane during Obama's first year and the GOP decided to build their entire Obama opposition strategy around exploiting how crazy people went. The 9/12 Rally was when the party formally handed that element the keys and told them to go nuts.

I sometimes think about what things would have been like if we had avoided the unending Health care imbruglio in the summer of 09, unified behind TARP and real financial reform, and managed to squeeze an uncompromised stimulus plan before the fall.

I think that there are more Trump fans in swing states, so they're more likely to come in contact with normal humans, which repulses the normals and makes them want to vote against Trump.

Trump QUOTE OF THE DAY!

quote:

“What basis do you have for that statement?” Ceresney asked in one case, about an assertion from Trump that O’Brien had been reported to the police for stalking.

“I guess that was probably taken off the Internet,” Trump said.

1. State polls tend to lag behind national polls, so it's possible her margins in swing states might also be coming down in the following weeks.
2. It's also possible that she might be running up her margins in those states while losing others (MS, IN) by larger margins than Obama in 2012. We've seen a couple polls this week that tend to suggest that.

I mostly attributed that to the post-convention bump. If she is tying him and now mobilizing in Georgia she could eke out a win.
