what you mean! My stomach was upset this morning until I worked out. Too damn nervous.
And I still Think she is ahead in Ohio from an analysis I did myself on the data (and lack of) from the CNN
poll and the previous Yougov poll (2 days earlier showed her up 7) whose data was much more transparent.

(19,060 posts)She reached her low point and even during that she still would have won if the election were yesterday. She is up 1-3 points at her worst point. She'll be up 3-6 by next weekend IMO.
Today was a gift and the timing was great with the weekend shows cuing up their stories to talk about. Plus Michelle Obama gave a great speech for her.

(99,710 posts)We haven't seen that with Hillary, even at her nadir.
Johnny2X2X
(19,060 posts)And she has the heavy hitters in the trail for her now. Michelle, Barack, Elizabeth, and Bernie will garner headlines talking her up.

(99,710 posts)An open minded person can't help but be impressed by that kind of dedication and persistence. And we haven't seen the fallout from a renewed emphasis on birtherism.
As a side note all the woe is me, the sky is falling posts accomplish is killing morale.
She had a really rough patch and now it's over.

(22,001 posts)this latest poll from Reuters also reflect her good performance in the CiC forum? What do you think? I realize that was Sept 7.

(99,710 posts)Now she is getting a lift for working through her illness...
And now she will get another lift from the renewed emphasis on birtherism.

(19,060 posts)She might have taken a hit last week, but today that comment was shown to be much more accurate to people.
Donald is truly deplorable and racist person and today was a reminder to everyone of that fact.

(99,710 posts)There's tactics and there's strategy. Maybe she was willing to suffer a temporary hit for long term gain.
Any way, the health scare probably affected the polls much more.
