At least someone is awake at 3am
Hillary slept like a log Benghazi.
Trump, April 26: She’s a disaster. Remember the famous call at 3 o’clock in the morning? She was sleeping, OK? She was sleeping. You know, it was her ad. Who would you like at 3 o’clock in the morning? Well, the phone rang and she was sleeping.
Read it and weep, DUMBO...

Hillary Clinton is seeing the benefits of her strong debate performance in battleground state polls released Thursday and Friday.
In Nevada, a Suffolk University poll released Friday found Clinton had the support of 44% of likely voters while Donald Trump had 38%. Libertarian Gary Johnson had 7%. Clinton’s boost in Nevada shows a surge past previous polls in the state in recent weeks which had Trump ahead by a percentage point or two. The poll of 500 likely Nevada voters was conducted Sept. 27-29 and has a margin of error of 4.4 points.
In New Hampshire, a WBUR-FM poll had Clinton 9 points ahead of Trump with likely voters in a two-way race, 47%-38%. When third party candidates are added the lead narrows slightly to 7 points. Clinton had 42%, Trump had 35%. Johnson had 13% backing and the Green Party's Jill Stein had 4%.
The numbers released Friday are a few points better for Clinton than polling in early September that indicated a tighter race. The telephone poll of 502 likely New Hampshire voters was conducted Sept. 27-29 and has a margin of error of 4.4 points.
And a Detroit News/WDIV-TV poll released late Thursday showed Clinton with a 7-point lead over Trump in both a head-to-head matchup and four-way field with Johnson and Stein. In the four-way race Clinton had 42%, Trump had 35%, Johnson had the support of 9% of Michigan likely voters and Stein had 3%. Just under one-tenth (9%) are undecided.
Clinton’s lead in Michigan brings is similar to margins she had in August coming out of the Democratic National Convention, but polling in September showed she was lead over Trump had narrowed to between 3 and 6 points. The telephone poll included 600 likely voters and was conducted Sept. 27-28 it has a margin of error of 4 points.
In all three states, a majority of those surveyed said that Clinton had won Monday's first presidential debate.
Putting it all into perspective.
Guardian Newspaper 30 September
Gary Johnson, Jill Stein and Evan McMullin are winning over quite a few voters
According to Real Clear Politics’ polling averages, about 15% of Americans are currently contemplating a choice which isn’t one of the two main parties. About 7% support the Libertarian party nominee, Gary Johnson, another 2% support the Green party nominee, Jill Stein, and almost 6% either support another candidate (like the independent candidate Evan McMullin) or else they’re undecided.
One way to measure this is to contrast Clinton and Trump’s vote shares in a two-way race with their support in a four-way race. Both candidates lose a few percentage points but the overall takeaway remains the same: Clinton is currently three percentage points ahead of Trump.
The problem for Hillary is that three percentage points just isn’t good enough, especially when you take into account the inaccuracies of polling. The two leading candidates are pretty much neck and neck and recent political history suggests that could be a big problem for Clinton.
In 2000, the Green party presidential candidate Ralph Nader played a huge role in securing George Bush’s victory, in part because Nader eroded Al Gore’s vote share in the crucial state of Florida.
Well, I was pointing out that he complains about media biased outlets, then posts them constantly.... and do I constantly post links from any of those site?
Most of my links come from BBC, and other world media, I rarely use, or trust, any of the biased media here in the US. I wish real journalism hadnt ever died, but it has.
