FL, NC, and OH also have contested Senate races (though last I checked, FL and OH were pretty likely to go GOP). Seem like strange places to be withdrawing resources.

So based on that site Quik linked, these are the winning scenarios if Trump loses any or all of those states...
Loses NC only - Clinton 404, Trump 101 Loses FL only - Clinton 469, Trump 39 Loses OH only - Clinton 413, Trump 90 Loses NC and OH - Clinton 230, Trump 23 Loses NC and FL - Clinton 251, Trump 4 Loses FL and OH - Clinton 252, Trump 2 Loses NC, FL, and OH - Clinton wins all scenarios

He's going to have such a great debate he won't need to spend money in those states.

So 538's Poll-only projection has been moving steadily towards Clinton since the 1st debate. As of right now (well, more like as of 2:30pm):
Hillary Clinton has an 80.1% of winning the Electoral College vote on Nov 8, meaning Trump only has a 19.9% chance (if the election was held TODAY, Clinton would have an 86.7% chance of winning). Now, of course things can change and 1/5th of a chance for Trump is still a chance, but Trump has got to turn this thing around and soon. Sunday's debate has to be a home run for him - and I don't think bringing up Bill Clinton's affairs is going do that.

I think we've reached the point now where it's out of his hands. He needs a Clinton smoking gun at the level of an audio tape of her calling Obama the n-word or a major mass murder on American soil by an illegal immigrant of Muslim. I don't see how anything he can say at the remaining debates can undo the damage he's already done to his own candidacy.

Anyway, after reading the entry I think that it's interesting to note that it's probably not as cut and dried as news outlets are going to make it in the coming Again, this is about as surface an understanding as one can get and it isn't meant to let Trump off the hook for his racially charged bullshit back in '89 (or now). Still, it's a fascinating case.

Honestly, I don't think even when the numbers started improving, that the Republican leadership was ever banking on a Trump win. What they wanted was for Trump to be non-toxic enough for their Senate incumbents to be able to start banking votes as soon as early voting began. Make hay while the sun shines and all that. I suspect their hope is that whatever does (or doesn't) happen in the final month of the campaign, that maybe Trump kept it together long enough to avoid the possibility of a washout in the Senate so that they can keep some leverage over the Scalia vacancy. And I think that's been the plan even in recent weeks where Trump wasn't shooting himself in the dick Old Faithful style. |

The goal for him right now isn't to convince Trump voters, but to convince swing voters who aren't already on his side. I'm thinking about suburbanites in places like Philly, Cincy, and Tampa. I think definitely hurts him with them, or even in the best case scenarios, it prevents him from any attempts to gain with them for a few days.

It makes it far harder for him to claw back from his dwindling chances, but maybe Ben is right - that it is completely out of his hands and needs a near-miracle to win.

Well, he cost himself my vote with his own mouth, so on the one hand I get it. On the other hand, I don't understand how any rational human being can vote for the subhuman filth running against him either. A 1-1 tie (as they each vote for themselves) seems like the only sane outcome.

It's not pretty clear at all to me. I know the three person panel sponsored by the police commissioner concluded that they were likely involved in some way, but I don't find them any more convincing than DA Morgenthau's conclusions, especially when we have hours and hours of interrogation that was not recorded.

If this is locker room talk, its coming from the mouth of the one guy no one wants to be friends with. He's straight up bragging about how his self perceived status allows him to get away with sexual assault. What a disgusting piece of trash and an embarrassment to America.

I'm now convinced that the entire GOP Presidental primaries are a giant improv group dedicated to amplifying the worst fears of the Conservatives:
2008- Political Neophyte in Barack Obama? Meet Sarah Palin. 2012- Running against Obamacare? Meet the other person to sign mandatory health insurance, Mitt Romney. 2016-Trust and Honesty issues, with a side of "Bad towards Women?" (Bill). Heeeeere's Donald Trump! at this point, if Clinton wins the election and runs for re-election in 2020.. I don't know what they're going to do, except maybe put a T-1000 Terminator built from email servers from the Consulate at Benghazi. (Ok, some of this may be the cold medicine. Not all of it though)

Now the election is over. This hot mic can be dragged out for another 7-10 days and itll essentially be too late for Trump to turn it around. I'd suspect over the next week a bunch of GOP'ers turn their back on Trump when they view it a lost cause to win the Gen election.

It's late on a Friday so everyone has probably already seen this stuff, but I think the Billy Bush tapes are what ultimately put the final nail in Trump's coffin. He's already been disinvited from Ryan's event tomorrow. Huntsman came out strong against him. The governor of Utah has now said he's not voting for him. Some never Trumps like Romney and Flake are just hammering him.
And then there's the Master of Shitty Timing, Ted Cruz. Maybe should have waited just a little longer to flush his dignity down the toilet with that endorsement.
