And every poll we see now seems to not have "the latest" shoe to drop baked into it yet.

I just wish today was November 7th.

"Two Florida polls (one of 400 likely voters and one of 400 Hispanic voters) were done Oct. 5-9 using online and Interactive Voice Response and carry a 4.9 percent margin of error."

When Cosby's first accusers came forward some still defended Cosby, but then the number grew to 10, 15, 20, 50, and so on. Now Cosby is seen as the monster he is. This is going to grow the same way, we'll hear more and more stories. And we know they are out there as Trump's campaign is trying to stop them from coming forward by threatening to sue.

people will have such a bad opinion of Trump that nobody will admit to having voted for him.

But, somehow, they all disappeared after he resigned, because almost no one would cop to voting for him.

23% in the popular vote and 520-17 electoral college.

I'm hoping that Trump loses worse than McGovern.

Using www.electoral-vote.com as my guide, Clinton has 269 EVs in STRONG or LIKELY, with 83 in BARELY.

This poll puts her at 298 STRONG or LIKELY, with 54 in BARELY.

Iowa will flip, Clinton gets 358 EVs and coattails for House and Senate.

We could see a sweep!
