A sane one and an insane one.

GA and AZ leaning blue????
I nearly fell out of my chair seeing THAT!

If Texas slips away from the GOP, they would truly be finished as a national party and it would be sweet to see!

Unfortunately, I think the RNC may have convinced Drumpf to try it their way. Has he shot himself in the foot in the last 2 days?

while hardly a big number, for the Democrats to be ahead at all is simply amazing. This will be an interesting campaign season.

. . .and their methodology is impressive, there were those bleating the sky was falling when, 3 or 4 weeks ago, 538 was predicting a slight edge for The Silly One.

Because the numbers shifted so dramatically, the electorate may not be settled enough to make any predictions, no matter how sound the math, all that reliable just yet.
