[url]http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/12/politics/clinton-trump-swing-state-polls/[/url] [QUOTE]Hillary Clinton has opened up commanding leads over Donald Trump in several critical battleground states, including North Carolina and Colorado, according to a new poll Friday. Clinton leads Trump 46%-32% in Colorado, 44%-39% in Florida, 48%-39% in North Carolina and 46%-33% in Virginia, according to new NBC/Wall Street Journal/Marist polls. The results represent increasing margins for Clinton in each of those four states, compared with polling conducted before the conventions and all the leads are outside each poll's margin of sampling error[/QUOTE]
If this post-convention momentum doesn't stop and Trump continues to shit the bed every other day, I'm convinced Texas, Mississippi, Alaska, and Missouri will be battlegrounds. I want to see a day where Texas goes blue. Hillary getting the vote out to hispanics in Texas could be the turn it needs if Trump's tantrums continue for a few more months.
Kinda hilarious that someone like Trump can't successfully stumble around the weak candidate that the democrats forced through.

[QUOTE=phaedon;50877300]Isn't this going to happen eventually anyway, due to changing demographics?[/QUOTE] Eventually, yeah. But Trump could make it happen way earlier than expected - he did real poorly in the Texas Republican primaries, and combined with the changing demographics, a Hillary victory isn't actually out of the question. FiveThirtyEight's polls-only predictions give Trump a 12% chance of winning the election, and Hillary a 20% chance of winning Texas. It's more likely that Hillary will win Texas than Trump will win the entire election. I'm optimistic - unless we have another 9/11 or Hillary is arrested, Trump's going to continue hemorrhaging support from the older classical conservatives who [i]actually go vote[/i]. If the Republican turnout is low because of Trump, it could really shift the election. Hillary doesn't even have to get those disenfranchised Republicans to vote for her - if they don't go vote out of distaste for Trump, it's enough to seriously change the results.
Congrats, America, we've elected a criminal. Better than a lunatic, I 'spose, but I'd still honestly rather elect the presidential chair over either candidate vying for it.

I've explained this to you like five times tho so w/e presidential chair meme.

She practically flaunted it over our heads when they announced they wouldnt press charges. You wanna keep defending that slimy sack of shit? Go ahead, but it falls on deaf ears. She is a criminal guilty of crimes so severe you and I would never be seen again if we committed them.

I don't think there is anywhere a [I]perfect[/I] candidate for an elected position completely clean of any embarrassment, failure, or blemish on their career.
