Let everybody have a little fun for a few days. We all realize how important it is to get our voters to the polls.

GOTV!

We need to press this advantage until November. It is unlikely that trumps supporters will increase significantly as long as we keep his asinine shenanigans in the forefront.

3. HAve you seen how the Clinton campaign is conducting itself?

They only ull back in certain states when absolutely certain they can, like in Colorado and Virginia.

They haven't committed resources to emerging swing states because it is obviously too early to do so, like in Arizona and Georgia.

I'd say the Clinton campaign is handling this brilliantly. There is no over confidence, there is cold, calculated analysis before action.

The Clinton campaign must be one of the best organized and run ever.

slime stories against Hillary. They will not let positive news stand and will do everything to thicken the plot to entice viewership and ad $.

Just tonight:

Trump endorsed RyanMcCainAyotte. Manafort got him under control. Pivoting to the General. Blah Blah Blah

Hillary continues to say Comey exonerated her for 400 million in cash on an airplane in Benghazi or something

The narrative for the next week will be Hillary Bad. Trump Serious.
