Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Trump's numbers in Iowa are high for the same reasons. I'm kinda happy that NC is becoming a more relevant battleground state than OH/IA these days.

Its a bit hard to really push this angle considering how hard she fought for single payer healthcare as first lady. I think she is resigned that this country is too dumb to let it get passed (see fight over obamacare) and that congress will never let it pass (see the republican house)

cant cook creole bream posted:Even though the rally she had there a few minutes ago was impressive, Ohio is probably a lost cause. Eh, gently caress Ohio. Seriously, I'm so loving sick of that state determining the direction of this country. The past 20 years we've relied on that state. With VA leaning blue now and NC as a swing state, OH is no longer the firewall it once was. Good riddance I say.

Krispy Kareem posted:This election is so weird. Just under 30% of the electorate identify as Republican. I think more people identify as Democrats, but it's still under 40%. The rest are swing voters and independents. You also have to take into account that a significant proportion of people who self-identify their party affiliation as "Independent" are people who don't want to identify as Republican because they think the Republican Party is full of RINOs. A ton of Tea Partiers and Tea Party types identify as Independent so they can pretend they aren't just straight ticket R voters but actually independently minded smart people who thoughtfully address the issues and individually choose the Republican Party every four years. Those kinds of "independents" loving love Trump but they would have voted Republican no matter who was running.

Clinton being higher or almost the same in FL / NC compared to PA makes no sense at all. Not to mention the 10 point gap between FL and OH; which has never happened in a modern election. Generally good numbers, but the toplines don't make sense. We'll have to see some more post-debate polls.

Well, I don't think a GOP candidate has ever managed to piss off Hispanics to the degree Trump does. Not to mention the possibility of his dealings with Castro turning the Cubans on him. Florida's been trending up towards HRC ever since that came out.

Doorknob Slobber posted:Ok. I found the quote, I completely misheard and she didn't use the word insane at all. Thats what I get for trying to listen to the radio with a screaming toddler in the car. Here is what I heard. Yeah I heard that quote earlier, too. My Far Left friends and media sources are in an uproar at the revelation that what they always knew was true. Hillary is Centrist. Centrism is something I don't usually think about in American politics. Even the Centrists call themselves liberals or conservatives. (although Hillary refuses the word "liberal")

As a Michigander, Ohio is the loving worst. Though I can't pretend that there aren't a huge amount of people in my state that are also the worst. At least Indiana is somehow still more horrible than Ohio.

According to those polls, Trump is doing almost exactly the same ~20% with Latinos he has been doing for the past 3 months. It's white and black numbers that are moving. The toplines still don't make sense. Florida has a national republican lean of about 1.5 points and PA has a national Dem lean of about 4 points. That means, according to those Q polls, that Hillary is outperforming by almost 7 points in FL and underperforming by about 6 in PA. It doesn't add up.

On Terra Firma posted:I don't want to TV/IV or anything but Clinton just brought up something that I've faced dozens of times throughout the years running my business. Sometimes I will submit an invoice with terms of 30 days (sometimes 45 depending on the company) and they will conveniently 'lose" my invoice and I won't get paid for 90 days and in a few cases up to 6 months. These aren't small shops struggling to pay out either. They are huge companies with deep pockets that just push payment out because they can. There are times I've been really sweating it not because I'm doing poorly or not getting enough business, but because I haven't been reimbursed to work I did months ago and the terms of the invoice were ignored. There are times I was owed nearly $10k and was told "Oh we misplaced that invoice so we have to resubmit it through accounts payable which will take an additional 45-60 days to process." This isn't even abnormal at this point. This happens loving constantly in consulting.

The single biggest thing that has gotten me excited for Iron Abuela is that she exhibits a very high level of understanding in most of the topics she addresses. Like, even if I don't end up agreeing with her conclusion all the time, I can be confident she's done the work and that she gives a poo poo about what she's dealing with.

The only good thing about Ohio is that it is a garbage state that nobody wants to live in, so you can get a 3BR house for $500 a month. Your brother probably is crying a little bit about his food and housing costs now. I lived in DC for 6 years and it is fantastic, but the cost of living is brutal. The Bay Area is just slightly ahead of DC for the highest cost of living in the country.
