RCP Average: Hillary +5.9

Beautiful sight. And the convention bump isn't fully realized yet. The Khan and other Trump disasters bump needs another week to be fully realized.

People always talk about the candidates floors. Well, I think their ceilings are more telling. Hillary's convention defined Trump as being unstable and not fit for office, then Trump absolutely proved that right the last week, it could not have been set up more perfectly for him to meltdown. He has disqualified himself for the office for over half the country. I think his ceiling sits in the low 40s, might be about 43 at most. He is simply not fit for office and you won't be able to convince more than 42 or 43% of the country otherwise.

His only chance is to drag Hillary down, I think he floor sits at about 41-42, but she has a ceiling in the low to mid 50s.

To me, that's not good enough. #TraitorTrump should be nowhere near this close... Liberal_Stalwart71 Aug 2016 #2

Still a lot of work to do.
