Option 1: a consistent increase for Hillary Clinton across a whole range of polls from different entities expresses a real change in voter attitudes in the post-debate period.

Option 2: all the polling entities and sponsors are engaged in a coordinated conspiracy to boost Hillary Clinton.

Your choice

1. What a difference a debate makes! Let's have 100 more debates

How about some green smilies for the occasion

2. Very good news indeed - even if you're a Bernie Sanders supporter (as is my case).

It may be restating the obvious; but what's really important here is that, whoever the Democratic nominee may be, he - or indeed, she - be in a position to beat whoever crawls out of the Rapepublican clown car next year.

Of course, I shouldn't be too hard on the fascist little dirt bags . The polls have improved noticeably for Hillary in the last few days, and that probably had less to do with the Oct. 13 debate than with McCarthy's own admission that they're using Congress as an arm of the RNC.

God does work in mysterious ways (a Pope Francis prayer, perhaps?).

3. well why even have a convention it seems the decision in for Hillary

I mean she wins all the M$M polls doesn't she?

4. We should stop polling

Because apparently that gives people a sad.

5. Not really I find it amusing because the majority of respondents do not much like Obama
