And Arizona. The two we got yesterday were mediocre pollsters but were still enough to raise an eyebrow. Need someone like YouGov, Monmouth, Marist, etc to take a look at them.

What other high profile thing is Russia pissed off about this year other than Hillary? Oh yeah they're doping cheats at the Olympics. Shocker! they altered docs on both of those issues.
Edit: Also from that Letterman interview:
Bad Lip Reading - First Presidential Debate

This is Guccifer 2.0 not the DNC leak, suposibly the leak they are referring to in this article was the Clinton Foundation Data which was clearly DNC Data instead shortly after the leak was made.

TIL that there is a Waffle House Index, used by FEMA to rate how badly an area is hit.

Letterman would have destroyed him in TLS.
No one has the balls or the cred to do that without ruining their late night career now. David had no reason to fear anything.
Clinton preps final-stage blitz against Trump (Politico). Not saying anytihng really new, except for where it details how much cash the Clinton campaign has, and what they're going to be spending it on in the next few weeks.
Hnnnnng....

Is that one of her pantsuits hanging to dry in the background?
Somehow that made trump look smarter

I think Trump might have higher expectations on Sunday for the second debate. In the first debate, the narrative was that he was surging in the polls, and he just had to stay coherent and the media would have slobbered all over him. But now, he is on defense and has to reverse his slide in the polls, and he has to undo the damage to his temperament in the first debate.

"Nobody took him seriously"
That seems to be the truth, throughout his career. Even bankers thought he was an idiot and only allowed him to survive financially because he was a good self promoter. He was considered useless otherwise.
Conservatives are such easy marks.

I hadn't heard this take on dealing with Donald early on yet. Letterman would have been the one to do it. The general electorate was just too entertained to fully kick him out of the race until it was too late.

"Donald Trump -- He Needs An Appointment And a Prescription"
Sounds about right!
Sounds about right!
This is correct. He has way more work to do than her and a "Trump doesn't implode" scenario isn't a win for him when he know Hillary will do great, too.
The thing I kept hearing about Trump from independents after the first debate wasn't about him yelling or talking about Rosie. It was that he never sounded like he knew what he was talking about. No real answers. No matter what temperament he has on Sunday, he still won't have answers or sound like he knows anything about regular American issues.

I know that Katrina was a horrible tragedy and all but this picture is amusing to me for some reason.
Like, all they need is a counter and they'd be back in business by that afternoon!
Work is fun this morning. Whichever idiot is responsible for last night's Sterling flash crash is a pain in the neck.
On the plus side, not long until another debate. God I'm excited
Oh thank god I don't work in regulatory management anymore.
The regulators are all gonna call everyone and try to get educated on electronic trading again.
I remember after Knight Capital I couldn't get them to understand why a Series 24 hadn't overseen the creation of black box algos.
Their last poll was Clinton +7. Wetting the bed now.

I heard about that on NPR back around Sandy. It's fascinating. If you want to hear more you should look for that story. I remember them talking about how sophisticated their crisis team is. They have emergency menus and hurricane operations manuals. I also heard an interview with the head of FEMA who came up with the index where he talked about it.
Basically if the Waffle House is closed, shit has gone down.
I don't joke about my election freakouts. I'm sitting on the razor's edge here.

Not that it really matters but I believe there are two MC polls: one that Politico commissioned (which is the +7 poll) and MC's own tracking poll that has been +1 to +3 for a while.
Not sure which one this was but it has a sample of 2000 RVs.
My guess is future insider convos like this will happen via encrypted chat that doesn't live on servers. Signal, iMessage.
They said that two weeks ago. Stop moving the goal posts!

Truly I picked a fun week for my first proper week of work at a regulator. Between this and Theresa May determinedly trying to drive markets off a cliff...
At this point, I'm watching Senate races. And praying that Sam Wang is right about these races tilting with the top of the ticket in the closing weeks.
I hope Hillary smashes Trumpy on Sunday night, if only to make North Carolina, New Hampshire, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, and Nevada more probable. It'd suck to only have the Senate until the 2017 special election for Kaine's seat in Virginia.
If we only had a teeny-tiny window for appointment confirmations, Charles Schumer would resemble Chris Farley's Newt impersonation from 1995, hurrying everything through while he can..

He calls him "Trumpy."

"Trumpy, you do stupid things!"

I worked at FINRA for a while in Market Regulation in the US. The people who work at regulators come in four varieties:
1) The real true believers who think they are Elliott Ness taking out the mob and are way too hardcore.
2) Those too stupid to ever get a job paying more money at a private firm
3) Those too lazy to ever get a job paying more money at a private firm
4) Those putting in 2-3 years on their resume to get more money at a private firm.
I was at Deutsche and Goldman in Regulatory management, but in both instances 90% of the work for EMEA was handled in those regional offices. I was technically in charge of the London office, but the head of that department was super good so she handled most of the actual dealings. European regulators seemed to fall a bit harder into category 1 than they did int he US.

A bomb?David Letterman just dropped a bomb on Trump
That's nothing.
If anything it made me think less of Letterman. Ignores his racism on the 80s and birtherism (he only cares now hes running for president and can hurt Letterman)
Plus he reads and takes David Brooks seriously
