Hillary

I was watching my local ABC affiliate this morning, and when they got around to the election coverage they said a poll showed the race "neck and neck" or "a dead heat". So what they are doing is cherry picking polls to find one they like, and that's what they report. So what Hillary is doing is running a race against the republicans (Trump), ABC, CBS, NBC, the cable networks, Putin, and Wikileaks. And she will beat all of them. She is wonder woman, and we are damned lucky to have her.

Revenue must be down. Trumps not spending any.

Gotta make up the shortfall somehow.
