Not worried...just a bit annoyed at the 538 2016 presidential forecast

Showing just very slight downticking for Hillary and consequential very slight upticking for Trump --

but what is changing to have these slight variations? What polls would be causing these minor shifts and what's the trend expectation?

A recent facebook post from Michael Moore....did anyone else get this?

Michael Moore
53 mins ·
I've been planning an "October Surprise" for the election, for all of you, and I have succeeded in keeping it a secret until now.

I've written a one-man show about this crazy Presidential race and was planning to perform it live -- and film it -- on Oct 7th in Newark, Ohio, the seat of Licking County, right in the heart of Trump Country. My producers flew there on September 15th and negotiated the rental and use of the historic Midland Theater in downtown Newark. Their staff greeted us with open arms and happily agreed to let me book my show. My team then returned to NYC and we set about preparing the shoot and putting the final touches on the production.

Well, this past week, my big plans got dealt a death blow by the Republicans of Licking County, Ohio. We got a call from the theater management telling us, "We're sorry but the community board that oversees the theater has voted to not allow Michael Moore to perform his show here. We are declining the rental." When asked why, it was explained to us that, "Michael Moore's appearance here could reflect negatively upon the Midland Theatre. He is too controversial and the risk is too great. The board is afraid that renting the theater to him
may cause the theater to lose long-standing patrons. Our board here is fairly conservative and it was felt that Mr. Moore would try to sway people's minds to vote his way."

Well, they got that right. They aren't stupid. This show, and my plan to release a video of it it nationwide so it can be seen by millions in the weeks before the election, should definitely "sway" some people into voting!So, good for them at the Midland Theatre in Licking County, Ohio, that they get the subversive intent behind this one-man show. I'll take it as a compliment.

That said, this decision left my production without a place to stage our show in the swing state of Ohio. Well, folks, I'm not leaving and going somewhere else. Sorry, Florida -- you were our second choice, and yes, we know how welcomed we'd be in your insane excuse for a state, but we're staying right here because, well, it's clear now that Ohio really, truly needs us.

And lo and behold, as I was writing this, my producer has informed me that it looks like we may have found a place about an hour or so down the road from Licking County, even deeper into southern Ohio, with even more Trump supporters. A county that has 25,000 registered voters -- and only 500 of them are Democrats! Yeah, baby! TrumpLand on steroids! But I'm told they believe in free speech. Imagine that. The show is on!

So, good people of Licking County, you can rest easy now. Or you can convince your nonprofit board (which is controlled by a bunch of local for-profit businessmen) to change their minds and let me in the door. I'll come do a second show for you. It's still a free country, right? What are you afraid of? That people with a conscience who hear some truth might begin laughing AT your candidate instead of voting for him?

The bottom line: I'm going to perform this show in Ohio. It's 2016, for crying out loud. And personally - sorry for the whining - I'm tired of all the shit I always have to go through. But that's nothing compared to what all of us and the rest of the world are going to have to endure come November 8th if things go very, very wrong.

So... onward to Ohio the first week of October! (I'll let you know the details later.) Maybe after I film my show in a town that will have me, I'll stop by Licking County anyway, pretend I'm still in America, and perform the show in the street outside that theater.

"Make Licking County Great Again!"

P.S. Btw, Licking County is known as the "basket capital" of the world. No, I'm not making a "basket of deplorables" joke. They literally are basket people here. This photo below is of the "World's Largest Basket" and it's the actual corporate headquarters in Licking County of the Longaberger Basket Company. (You can write your own caption here.)

Join us, in creating a 24 hour surge of support for Hillary. #9.26 By teioh (Daily Kos)

Yesterday I was feeling somewhat helpless reading diaries filled with angst and concern over the polls, the surreal negative nature of the Trump circus, and the upcoming debate…

So to counteract that mood — yesterday I donated $9.26 to Hillary’s campaign. It helped.

Then I mentioned it to others. They did the same. They felt good. (I know because they told me it did)

It was our way of saying directly to Hillary: “This coming Monday 9/26/16, come what may, we are with you!”.

So we are 24 hours out before Hillary steps into the arena to speak for us and the future of this country.

So far dozens and dozens of DKer’s have messaged, and commented that they too have sent in $9.26 donations.

If you can (and I understand not everyone can) but if you can, please donate exactly $9.26 to www.HillaryClinton.com/donate.

It may be a small thing, but it was meaningful to me and others, and if enough do it, Hillary will get the message.

DONE!

Let's play a really difficult mind game -- imagine (if possible) that you were a Trump supporter

Okay -
"big white man talks tough" -- that appeals to Trump supporters
"law and order" -- that appeals to Trump supporters
"politically incorrect" and "spontaneous" -- seems to appeal to Trump supporters

-lots of chauvinist men, lots of uneducated white men and women

but -- lots of educated folks too that either hate Hillary (why?), love Trump or are hardcore Republicans

------------

While I think that the ads that the HRC folks have put out are extremely effective, I wonder what (if anything) would make some of the Trump supporters (or leaners) go "Wait a second!" or "I didn't know that" or "I gotta really think about my vote for Trump"

There must be something or somethings that could make them think twice about what they're doing and/or why they're either anti-Hillary or pro-Trump. Problem is that it's really hard to get into the mind of a Trump supporter. What do you think would give some of the Trump supporters (not talking about the hard-core white supremacists) pause?

Perhaps if he is seen as weak or a coward that might work....????

The Moron’s Case For Hillary Clinton…because some of you really are that stupid.

From the THE CONTRARIAN BLOG
"IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SPEAK, BUT TO SPEAK TRUE." – SHAKESPEARE

Excerpted from the blog post:

An old colleague and I were having breakfast this morning when he looked up at the news (I can’t remember which network …MSNBC, I think) and noticed a split screen of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. He lamented long about how terrible both candidates are in this election and I guess we just have to choose the lesser of the two evils or, as he put it, “…put on a blindfold and just pick. It doesn’t really make any difference.”

And that’s when I went off.

I am really sick and tired of people saying both candidates are equally horrible choices, how much America thoroughly hates both of them to the core, that there’s not a single positive trait in either one of them and wow, if only we had voted for that guy behind the deli counter or the neighbor’s cat, America would be WAY better off.

Fuck you. Fuck the deli guy and fuck your neighbor’s cat.

There are only 2 candidates who stand any mathematical chance of prevailing in this year’s election and one of them is, in fact, eminently qualified to become the 45th President of the United States, perhaps more so than any of the other 44 previous office holders. She (that’s right…SHE) has been dedicated to public service in one capacity or another since 1971. Her accomplishments are tremendous. To name a few (edited from the list once provided by Daily Kos for space):

First ever student commencement speaker at Wellesley College.
Distinguished graduate of Yale Law School.
Editorial board of the Yale Review of Law and Social Action.
Co-founded Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families.
Former civil litigation attorney.
Staff attorney for Children’s Defense Fund.
Faculty member in the School of Law at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.
