I'm getting the weird movie vibe where the person winning in the beginning is the villain. And the person that's initially losing reaches triumph at the end.

Texas is beyond rational convincing.
The cities are nice but the rural areas are sometimes as backwards as you would expect.
As a Texan, I recognize my state just needs to lose badly and be bullied into progressive policies year by year until these conservative white baby boomers have died off.
Fivethirtyeight has Clinton leading by 6.2 points in Florida (their polls-only model). If she manages to win by that margin in the election, it'll be the largest victory in Florida by a Democrat since Harry Truman in 1948.
Me too.Maybe one of our counties will go blue this year.......
I would like to see some polls here though. I figured the anger surrounding the earthquakes coupled with the poor response from local governments would tip the scales a tiny bit. Would be nice to see.
That and I want to know how SQ 792 is going to go.
I live in WV (well ok I'm from there and still stay there a lot, technically I live in Ohio now) and if we had even a single county go blue I would be shocked. Sometimes we don't even have a single city go blue. Morgantown and Charleston usually hover around 52-48 Dem-Repub but switch sides all the time.

Heh, the problem with that analogy is that Hillary was never actually losing. If you look at the electorate data, there has never been a point where Trump passed her. It was neck and neck at one point, post-RNC, but Hillary has consistently been ahead of Trump ever since the general election officially started. She was never really some kind of underdog, if you were looking at the actual numbers. A lot of the dread around Trump winning was mostly the misguided narrative of Trump being unbeatable.

I meant that the person winning in the beginning (Hilary) gets defeated in the end by the underdog(Trump) despite all odds.

guess we gotta wait for the october meatloaf surprise luncheon
Same with Virginia, I think Clinton has led every poll comfortably since Trump had his minor surge in July, and nearly all of them before that.
