She enters to music that’s uplifting and appropriate to the occasion. SO MUCH THOUGHT AND PREPARATION Is that even fair?

I can’t tell you how badly I need her to be confident after the last couple of days. Glad the polls are ticking in the right direction or I’d be sitting here dead.

Me too. I got this pit in my stomach that obviously won’t go away for 4 more days.

Great speech. Her style is best when she basically owns up to the fact that she’s the workman(workwoman?)like anti-style candidate. She’s the world’s smartest, toughest nerd.

Glad she’s turning to her closing argument – especially with continued good job stats. Hope (but am not betting) that the media actually covers what’s important (instead of being led around on Giuliani’s FBI disinformation campaign).

I watched the whole thing and loved it!!! Our campaign is so much better than the hate-fueled other campaign.

Sam Wang has certainly helped me. And there is this, from Wang’s site, a day or so ago:

[If you want an estimate that uses national polls, see The Upshot. I’m a little concerned that FiveThirtyEight’s code double-counts (i.e. overcounts) the swings in national and state polls. They’ve been a bit underconfident and volatile.]

She’s got the positive thing going. That matters. Being forward-looking is part of our mythology. I suspect she realizes that both intuitively and as a conscious strategy. When she says we can make things better you believe she means the we part. Him, you never believe it.

The other thing, I’m constantly struck by the difference in toughness between them. He’s a thin-skinned bully who can’t take a punch. She’s a streetfighter, like a tomcat. You knock her down, she gets back up and comes straight at you again. In terms of sheer warrior heart there was never a contest.

Damn, she has a steel spine. She reminds me of my mother, even though she’s only old enough to be my older sister. I swear, women are pulling for her and will get her elected.

I hope that translates into votes. On Nov. 8, once two out of these three EDT states — New Hamphsire/North Carolina/Pennsylvania — make it clear that they agree with us, I’ll be happy. Meanwhile, it’s quite a pleasure to do the little tasks that hillaryclinton.com is giving me.

I read that this morning, in lieu of prayer. :smile:

Also this from Sam To-day:

We’re entering a period when all the math and data gets converted to short quotes. The above quote is pre-Comey, but I will live with it.]

Don’t worry about PA. She’s always had a lead here that I can recall and the ground game has been cranking for months. Steny Hoyer showed up at our headquarters just the other day—swing county in a swing state, we get a lot of love. French TV was here for Hillary’s nomination speech. Main thing I’m looking for is good news out of Florida. I think between ground game and Hispanic turnout it’s worth hoping for. It’d be the ball game.
