8. The fact that the MSM is heavily trumpeting the "polls are tightening" BS

based on outliers is your first clue that Hillary is doing just fine right now.

Their Comeygate gambit failed, and they've run out of time to effect the election. All the trends and measures are predicting a landslide victory and a tsunami of a blue wave.

The media loves their fake horserace, and they will ride it into Tuesday morning. They will then trip over each pivoting as quickly as they can to the reality of Hillary's victory, which they will try to downplay as not being a mandate, etc.

I've stopped watching the news. It's 95% bullshit. They think we're all stupid.

I personally think she is up a minimum of 10%. Joe941 Nov 2016 #1
