Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

The numbers fluctuate back and forth to some degree but this is essentially where things have stood ever since the last debate.
Take solace in the numbers, but then go out in vote.
Unless you already have of course, in which case just prepare for the Trump supporter freakout that is sure to come on November 9th.
Suppose you were going into surgery and the doc said, oh, this is pretty safe, but there is a 1-in-7 chance that you won't wake up. You'd be pretty scared, right? GO VOTE!
NBC interviewed Trump supporters. One said he was not going to vote because the election is rigged so his vote will not matter. Maybe enough Trump supporters will believe Trump that the election is rigged and he will lose more votes from his own. His egotistical defense that the election is rigged may harm Trump and hurt others due to anger he incites in people.
I read a tip at Politicsusa to have your cell phone charged and record anyone intimidating voters at polling places.
It is sad Trump is manipulating anxiety to fear that his supporters may intimidate or threaten citizens manipulated and allowed to be obscene and hostile at his rallies. If he became President he would rule as he has run his campaign.
I most certainly don't want to rain on your parade,but I want to perform a reality check for you. For this reason, implore all your friends to vote, and vote blue straight down the ticket...wherever you live. I live in Ohio, and I check on that specific forecast and I see it tightening lately...and so is my sphincter. Iowa and Arizona have the same trend as well. Why, your guess is as good as mine. They may have the same type of brain dead goobers we do here in the Buckeye state. It makes me want to beat my head against a wall...Ohio is the "Home of Presidents", having sent 8 to the White House, and now - according to a recent article from the New York Times, we are now on the cusp of becoming electorally irrelevant! Good job, Ohio! /s
Calm down. No one is resting on their laurels. The turnout for Hillary is already impressive. People want her to win and the want her to win BIG. I honestly think at this point the objective is to make the landslide as big as possible.
One hour ago: noon EST -- Trumps is leading in Florida. WTF? To sit out this vote, Democrats in Florida, is ______________. You can fill in your favorite word for irresponsible.
Yep! I'm a registered Democrat. Not soon after I received my absentee ballot, they started calling to remind me to turn it in.
When I could I chatted with them a bit, but assured my vote would be for Hillary & Patty Judge (senator). I was unsure about some of the lesser candidates, so I did my research. Then I voted & turned it yesterday.
Take the time to learn about your state reps, local sherrifs, judges, etc. They ARE important.
I live in rural Iowa. Even die-hard conservatives don't want to vote for Trump, but sure has hell don't like Hillary. I've heard it, & in a way I feel sorry for them. They want to vote but feel powerless. They DO like Pence.
Compared to Trump, I even like Pence. I agree with none of his views, but at least he seems competent & mentally healthy.
Sorry, 8:35, but I'm afraid that Pence stinks, too. Anyone who can attempt to pass the types of things he does against women and women's rights is definitely NOT "competent & mentally healthy".
Pence seems better by comparison because he's not as batshit crazy as Trump. Pence, however, is mean, incompetent and hates women but he's just more skilled at hiding it.
It's kind of like saying dying of the plague is better than dying of Ebola. Either way, you end up dead and suffer horribly in the process of getting that way.
Trump's gonna win Ohio unless Franklin (Columbus), Montgomery (Dayton),Summit (Youngstown), Cuyahoga (Cleveland), Hamilton(Cincinnati) county Dems are out in force. Because rural Ohio is Trumpistan for sure.
Don't jump all over me when I remind some.....I recall during the primaries when it was said Hillary had less baggage and the e-mail thing is minor and would blow over.
Trump is slowly but steadily moving up. Is up to a 15% chance now. Which is still small but it's that steady rise and momentum that's scary. I'm not feeling good about Ohio at all and if it goes, it's not like it's an independent factor. I don't get it, but chances are that a bunch of others go. I have a lot of family in Ohio and though many are registered Democrats, they are voting Trump and heartily supporting him. They are encouraging early votes for Trump. Movement the same in other battleground states. I think Trumps ground campaign is seriously underrated. He has his kids, their spouses, Pence and self working furiously. Gotta give him that; he knows how to work hard, does as many as 4 appearances, 3 rallies a day and now the focus is to get them from rally to early voting. I'm nervous about this because I don't think the polls are set up to measure effectiveness of a force like Trump
Unfortunately, your observations and reasoning are well stated and supported by reality. Her repeated pattern of rapid rise followed by a steady downward drift is disturbing. A novelist submitting this scenario to a publisher would be ridiculed for unrealistic contrivance and pointless melodrama.
Landslide? What landslide?
In conclusion, Drumpf is a horrifying douchebag spectacularly unfit for high elected office. And not in a good way.
Rebecca, being sequestered in your area of Ohio must be difficult and you seem not to leave that area very often, if ever.
Rest assured, most of America is not just in tune with the little corner of the country where we live but we spend a lot of time in other areas, and sweetheart, I've been to your area and yes, it's very hopeless, it's a place where no one chooses to live unless they are unfortunate enough to be born there and not ever secure the resources to "get the fuck out".
Leave this election to those of us that aren't stuck like you are, even if Ohio doesn't do the right thing there are so many of us that will.
Please, don't lose sleep over this elction and really dear, try to get the hell out of that cesspool every so often, it will give you such a positive perspective on the way the rest of the country lives.
The rest of America only remembers Ohio for being the place where the "rivers caught fire". I don't think much has improved there since then.
"...in which case just prepare for the Trump supporter freakout that is sure to come on November 9th."
ReplyDeleteYeah. That's what scares me! He's got those damned fools so riled up, they may just get violent - a LOT.
i wonder if troops will have to be called out. I also wonder if he will be held responsible. In my mind, he should be.
Both he and Palin should be tried for treason and Deported.
DeleteSuppose you were going into surgery and the doc said, oh, this is pretty safe, but there is a 1-in-7 chance that you won't wake up.

GO VOTE!
I want and hope Hillary wins by a landslide!

DeleteAsshat Pence's entire infrastructure is falling apart in his state
DeleteThe bridges ,roads... Cars with duct tape holding their bumpers on r common.
Pence seems better by comparison because he's not as batshit crazy as Trump. Pence, however, is mean, incompetent and hates women but he's just more skilled at hiding it.

8:35 ~ Do you think it's competent to ban condoms in order to reduce the rate of abortion?
DeleteI didn't think so... so, you'll want to also re-think your regard for Pence's mental health.

Hillary will have over 300 electoral votes.
DeleteThere is no way Trump is going to get over 270. He would have to run the table on every single toss up state and he's not going to do that.
