At this point, no one is changing their minds. It's all about the ground game. We Dems will win if we turn out.

Its that simple.

The $$ being spent on the airways and intertubes is a waste of money.

GOTV

VOTE DEM

Let;s not kid anyone, the fact that Hillary has the backing of Wall Street and big business is the reason she will win this election. Yes she will win despite her depressed voter base and a major enthusiasm gap. She is getting support from the moneyed interests that are for the crony corporatist status quo. That is not a denigrate her for what she is doing. She is only doing what Obama did the past two election cycles when he declined to take government funding and racked up billion dollar campaign war chests. Romney tried to do the same thing in 2012 but couldn't keep up with Obama's buddies in corporate America who have sidled up to gorge on the public treasury.

Her victory however will be similar to her husbands with the endorsement of far less than 50% of the voters. She will also likely fail to bring along with her a Democrat Senate so her agenda will be DOA. But she does get a Supreme Court nomination or two, or three - which is no small matter. As we've seen with Obama's style of governance, that's all that really counts. That's where the law is made in the modern oligarchical America.

But Trump is gaining and why is that? Voter enthusiasm for Hillary is at an all time low, compared to the anger of liberal hypocrisy and PC and the denial of wanting to give Americans the chance to excel in life and better their lives is the driving force is exactly what is propelling people to go out and vote for Trump.

All that money spent on campaigning. Millions spent just to try to get into a political position... and I'm pretty sure we all know exactly how that much money could have been spent elsewhere FOR THE COUNTRY.

FOR THE COUNTRY

Right on!

Really pisses me off!!!

About 15 million children in the United States – 21% of all children – live in families with incomes below the federal poverty threshold.

Those elites just don't give a shit.

A sickening amount of money.

Immoral.

I get the impression that Trump supporters get most of their news from homemade YouTube videos. No cost.

Wolfpack:. Let;s not kid anyone, the fact that Hillary has the backing of Wall Street and big business is the reason she will win

Don't you think that nominating Trump has something to do with it? Or maybe so many Republicans trying to distance themselves from him? It's sounds like you imagine him running away with this thing with overwhelming support if it weren't for the puppet masters.

"Hillary Clinton spent $645,000 more a day than her opponent Donald Trump last month, but even with her $50 million campaign outlay, she has not been able to pull away from him in the race for the White House."

Wow, she must really be a really bad candidate.

"Josh Schwerin, a spokesman for the Clinton campaign, said Trump has been “derelict” in building a political operation"

Schwerin still doesn't get it - that's exactly what a majority of Americans like. We're fed up with establishment politics! Get it???

"We Dems will win if we turn out. Its that simple."

Sorry, too many Bernie supporters and blacks that you Dems are taking for granted won't vote for that deplorable woman.

"A sickening amount of money. Immoral."

Hillary for prison!

"I get the impression that Trump supporters get most of their news from homemade YouTube videos. No cost."

Oh, so now Trump supporters are not only deplorable, they're stingy! Ha ha ha

I get the impression that Clinton supporters simply refuse to admit she is the biggest liar and the most corrupt person ever to run for president.

And they might learn something if they watch this: "BREAKING NEWS: Reddit's Stonetear Deleted Classified Benghazi Emails At Request of Hillary Clinton" (Youtuber, author, columnist and journalist H. A. Goodman )

HILLARY ! HILLARY ! HILLARY ! 1/20/17 - "Madame President "

1 ( +1 / -0 )

IVANKA! IVANKA! IVANKA! Jan. 2021 ( after one term of Donald ) or Jan. 2025 ( after 2 terms of Donald ) "Madame President"

-1 ( +0 / -1 )

One term of Donald is all it'll take for the destruction of the world - inevitable consequence of handing the nuclear "football" to a preening chimp.

And why do you say "Madame President" with an "e"? Is she French?

So even if nether of them wins, every body still lost along the way. And if either of them wins, then the losing continues. Its strange that any one actually believes that either will make a change for the better rather than the worse.

In USA, it is illegal to spend campaign money to other purpose than campaign. Treated as fraud. Collecting money and spending for something else.
