I think Dems may have one or some - LOL

Anywho, corporate media knows it's crap concerning the polls.

They dropped the story of Trump's offensive tweet about Dwyane Wade's cousin for ANTHONY WEINER!

All morning they've been talking about THE RACE TIGHTENING!

And they brought on Hugh Hewitt to comment on the latest "news."

I really don't think their Rump humping is going to change anything though. The media is trusted less than Congress.

They create and push a narrative.

Go to this website. The race is remarkably stable. All we're seeing is the end of Clinton's convention bump.

The final tally will be in the area of 48-43-6-3. *Yawn*
