Headline: Clinton holds 8 point lead…
Story: “TPM’s PollTracker Average has Clinton ahead of Trump 45.7 percent to 40.4 percent.”
Actual PollTracker graphic: Clinton 46.7 - Trump 42.7

Geez, at this rate she’ll be losing by the time I get to the bottom of the page.

Seriously? Dayum…how did I miss a whole day? Okay, I have an excuse. It was my birthday last weekend and yesterday was our day to celebrate still being alive.

There is a reason that the term of the DNC chair was set to expire just before Inauguration.

Except we don’t vote nationally. We vote state by state. Go to www.electoral-vote.com. You’ll feel better.

Every new president puts in their own DNC chair. DWS would have been gone anyway.

REPUBLICANS FREAKING OUT IS REALITY SINKING IN

Like frightened children walking down creaking stairs into a dark and dank basement for the first time, the fear of the unknown is consuming and overwhelming them.

What will happen to Republicanism in an America where defeated Republicans are aggressively blaming their fellow Republicans for causing their defeat?

Who will keep them safe from the boogeyman of governmental competence and effectiveness under a Democratic administration with a Senate majority and a divided Republican congress whose individual members will be fighting mightily to hold on to their jobs?

Clinton >>> Johnson >>>>>> tRumPutin and fuck Jill Stein.

Really, the race should be between Clinton and Johnson with Clinton beating him by 15-20 points. tRumPutin and Stein are absolute clowns. And not the funny kind of clown.

This kind of clown.

Third party candidates tend to peak just before Labor Day, and fade as voters realize who’s actually electable.

I’d like to know when the hell we started voting nationally. I’ve always voted in my home state, wherever that was (Okay, ful disclosure, on a election day, I and about 10 million of my besties fire up our phantom jets and vote in any many states as we can, flying state to state, screamin off the plan through security into a cab ("Get me to a polling station: Go go go go!’).

Now, if I’m wrong, this article says HRC is up 8 today, and that’s today, we’ll see about tomorrow and next week and next month, whatever. But if I’m right and what matters is the state polls, and the vastly more stubborn aggregate of state polls is way more predictive than national polling, WTF is up with articles like this one, is what I have to ask.

Timing is everything. Several of the top DNC officials were dropped and replaced. This is not the most effective way to run the DNC in the home stretch.

And the fire rages on…

You realize she is right. The demographic tide is just too strong. Romney was the last Republican (white man party) who had any chance at all, and his chance wasn’t very good.

The Republican party needs to swallow hard and reform its message to attract large numbers of upwardly mobile blacks and Hispanics. Won’t happen. The white racists in the Republican party are just too powerful.

The next few years will see the end of the Republican party, just like the Republicans replaced the Whigs, so another party is going to replace the Republicans.
