Places where Trump should have a "walk-off" lead, but some polls have now shown Hillary leading.

One could argue the accuracy of the polling and whether Hillary really leads there, but the point is, they should be well in the bag for Trump at this point, and obviously they are not.

I was thinking we might see some "surprising" polling coming out of Arizona, before this was over.

And, McCain may lose his bid for re-election as well if Clinton's coattails are strong enough.

Women voters will be the key.

A song immediately jumped in my head: Paul Simon, "Slip Sliding Away"! (and take McGramps away too)

And she makes a run at Utah and Texas and probably wins at least one of them. Mark it down.

If it comes to Georgia and no additional funding has gone to the CDC, that will doubly hit home.

keep fingers crossed. Go, Arizona! Yes, you can!

But these sort of numbers are unreliable. Stay cool when they shift again, as they will. The overall trend and the end are what matter.

I love it when red states go purple. Hopefully Arizona will stay on this path and not look back.

is show me how many stupid, ignorant, dangerous people there are in Arizona and by extrapolation, this country. HRC should win, but 42% for the NAZI is revealing. IT's still early yet so we will see how these numbers shake out in the next few months. Troubling.
