How can they be that out of step? Are they wrong or is everyone else?

I know, don't look at individual polls, look at the averages.

But really, outliers matter. What is up with them?

Neither does Reuters, and I don't like that "poll" either.

Both use their own online panels, and because of their methods can't report a statistical "margin of error." Sometimes Reuters will still report results that look good, so it will be tempting to believe them. But I try not to.

presidential candidate ever to run for office in the history of our nation, is leading him by 8 points
really all that great?

I think it's great.

attacking their own prime candidate, and it is rumored that they are attempting to replace
Trump with someone else. I hear some Republicans are going to vote for Hillary.

How much more help can anyone get?

nt

But I find it extremely HARD to believe that tRump has 26% of the Latino vote.

they would vote for Satan himself....

The George Zimmermans of the U.S., some misogynists, and hardcore anti-Castro Cubans mad at Prrsident Obama's Cuba policy. Throw in a few people who are just that stupid to vote for Trump based on his "outsider" status, and maybe a couple looking forward to the human trafficking profits of getting people past his wall...

I still think the number is too high :-P

This news just in: Generalisimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

even terrorism, 48%-43%

this right here ------>>>>>>>>>> is the ballgame Trump’s ratings in general haven’t worsened – they just haven’t improved since he claimed the Republican nomination. And the trouble list is long: Seventy-nine percent of Americans say he doesn’t show enough respect for people he disagrees with, 70 percent express anxiety about a Trump presidency, 67 percent think he lacks the personality and temperament it takes to serve effectively, 64 percent doubt his understanding of world affairs, 63 percent see him unfavorably overall, 62 percent say he’s not honest and trustworthy, 61 percent think he’s unqualified for office and 60 percent think he’s biased against women and minorities.

GOTV !!! Senate and House Blue !!!

He must not only discredit Clinton, he must rehabilitate himself in the eyes of the voters.

Every day, every speech, every interview, every press conference is now about him. And there is no longer room for discrediting his opponent.

While this may feed the Beast that is his ego, it will not win the election for him.

The Clinton team must be laughing as they watch this play out. All you have to do to control this clown is to provoke him, ignore him, slight him in some way and he is in your pocket with his predictable over reactions.

What does it take? He's insulted them. He's insulted us. He's insulted our allies. The ideas coming from his head are a word salad. He mocks veterans. He hates on our military, pisses on its traditions. Hates women and babies. Doesn't care for republicans. Doesn't care for democrats.

Am I missing something? WHO THE FUCK IS STILL SUPPORTING HIM! Trolls who live under a bridge?

Actually, I know why it shows a closer race than what would otherwise be expected. The surveys can only reach people who are willing to take pollster calls, which leaves out a lot of people who've unplugged the TV & telephone.

Losers like this jackass -

Probably with law enforcement, but maybe not for voting if they're felons. Imagine all the yelling and all the hate and they can't do anything about it?

If we start and build up the meme that the gop is intentionally ratfking trump. We can probably build their anger to the point where they will only support the top of the ticket, and leave downballot races blank.

It wouldn't take much. They are already a tinderbox of paranoia and conspiracy believers. Not even a lit match. Just a good breeze and boom, they will light up.

Gonna have to use your line about them being a tinderbox.

You've given this some thought.

Commenting to kick this above the later posts by people who didn't bother to look and see this already was posted and being discussed.

LIKELY VOTERS...

Not going to complain, tho!!!!

I find that hard to believe.

If this were 2012, I think that Obama would be trouncing him and there
would be no doubts about the winner come November.

8 POINTS ??!!

I'm from Massachusetts. I still get dry heaves when I recall that Scott Brown
(another phony, half-wit palooka) beat A.G. Martha Coakley (the supposed
shoe-in dem candidate in solidly blue state) to win Ted Kennedy's Senate seat.

The game ain't over 'till it's over.
