Can someone tell Trump about this so he can get it and Donald Duck into his stump speech.

Not to torture you poor souls anymore, but Rick Wilson's endless oppo tease is now hinting that the Daily Beast story about coke parties and underage models is the "shot" and the chaser is coming soon.


Not to get my hopes up anymore that the "oppo tapes" actually exist, but if this story was put out there just so that Trump can deny it and a tape backing it up appears right after, then oh man.

Cesara should be banned if no oppo :(

I think it's all about Colin and Montgomery counties. Those are the two big suburban counties in Texas. That is where CLinton would pick off college educated whites.

Collin County sets new record, nearly doubles # of first day early voters from 2012

2012 - 16,000+
2016 - 30,288

This is a big fucking deal.

Montgomery County had 20k today. I can't find the 2012 number yet.

Rick Wilson and Liz Mair said last week-ish that there's still something big, and I don't really see why either of them would be lying.

I hate to buy into cliches, but if the "unbelievable stories" about a billionaire New York City real estate mogul who runs casinos and beauty pageants is that he had coke-fueled orgies with underage models, color me completely unsurprised. Which is to say that I already think Trump is one of the single worst human beings on Earth. This just feels like a "well no shit of course he did" sort of revelation. Not unlike the "grab them by the pussy" tape, to be honest. He's a truly evil man.

My thinking now is that we're definitely going to win, and the thrilling part is by just how much we'll win in terms of things like down ticket wins and red states flipping blue. I'm expecting to stay up, get good and sloshed and laugh my ass off at the social media implosion.

I just wish Hillary had something as awesome as "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" to groove out to like 2008.

I mean.. we know Hillary will win comfortably. But we don't know how far into the traditionally red column she'll reach.
We know the Senate will be ours.. but we don't know the exact seats or margins.
We know we'll make gains in the House, but again, we have no idea as to the extent.

The ceilings on all of these races are so fuzzy. These early voting numbers are starting to look impressive, even in areas that are surprising.

2012 felt like it could've been predicted in each category within a normal range. But 2016? We don't know. And I'm turgid with excitement.
Click to expand...
I'm really hoping for a blowout. It's the biggest reason I hope the 538 model is accurate. While it might give trump the highest chance of winning, it also gives Clinton the highest chance of a landslide at 21.4%.

I will go four more days believing in the oppo.

I mean, Trump's team has dumped their opposition research in the last two days on Hillary... It was just nothing (Hillary thought the Donald Ducks his taxes thing was funny and Hillary's friend once donated to a woman whose husband later was in the FBI and near someone who investigated Hillary).

So Cheetos Jesus is coming to my town tomorrow night. This should be interesting considering we are one of only 3 blue Counties in all of the FL Panhandle.

I'm thinking I may have to check out the affair from the periphery. The Repubs in this town are of the Jeb Bush variety. I don't know what he expects to accomplish, except attract Southern Georgia voters
Click to expand...

Leon county isn't pure blue though (especially once you get to the extreme north areas near Bradfordville, etc) and there's plenty of rural folk willing to come see him. Trump needs to run up the score in North Florida bigly and getting on air in the Tallahassee market has to be part of it.

That being said, that venue is perfect for Trump-that museum is full of tacky stuff and way overpriced. I drove by that place to Lincoln (and later, FSU) for years in the 90s at the original location and never wondered why anyone would stop in. Way more interesting things to see in Tallahassee.

I mean if you just want to see cars go out and watch a zaxby's drive through at 2am on a saturday night :jnc

Like Wilson said in his timeline, this ain't about us. This is about all of those moderate republicans.

Later this week is the perfect time.

Here are the top 5 things I'll be following on election night in order of importance to me:

1) President
2) Senate especially Kander versus Blunt
3) Measure M in Los Angeles
4) Issa losing and the House in general
5) Marijuana measure in CA

The "chaser" would need to be pretty damning for a story like that. Something on the level of the earlier tape with Trump's own words.

I want to keep my expectations in check, because I have trouble imagining a scenario where Trump would admit to something like that on tape/mic. It's one thing to brag about grabbing/molesting women freely, it's quite another to talk about parties where the girls are drugged up and underage.

Robert Durst shows us it's not impossible, but I have my doubts. I guess we'll see what happens.

Seems pretty good.

SAN ANTONIO — Some 35,431 people cast ballots on Monday, setting a Bexar County record for the first day of early voting in a presidential election.
The turnout Monday surpassed the county's previous record of 30,087 set in 2012, which topped the 29,119 votes in 2008 when President Barack Obama was first elected.

Is it a big enough deal to really tip the balance of TX in Dems' favor tho?
Click to expand...

Hard to say, probably not. But it would be necessary for Clinton to be competitive. Romney won Collin county by 30+ points. Clinton would need to make a dent in that to have a chance. I think these early numbers confirm that it's worth our time to keep an eye on Texas.

Those early voting numbers from Travis, Harris, Dallas, Tarrant and Collin counties in Texas are crazy. Great to see Hillary's still expanding her lead in Nevada and very great numbers from Florida today too. It's looking really good.

Fuck the NC GOP for restricting early voting. I believe they'll show up to the polls - it'll just be more difficult/inconvenient compared to other states.

I am PISSED at the NC GOP. Voting in general should be the easiest process ever. FUCK them for restricting access. Although I hear they will be opening more polling places soon? So that's good and we know Michelle and Hillary will be there on Thursday.

Also my thoughts on the "oppo" or the daily beast story. I would like to think Rick Wilson knows something. I mean his credibility is on the line here. That said lets say something exists. If it's not a tape or Trump on mic it's hard to say how big this will be. But you'd have to assume there are receipts somewhere.

It could be worse like Missouri where you need a valid reason to absentee vote. You can vote early in person using the valid reason argument at city hall in St. Louis. That's it for my city. GOP runs the state sadly so doubt it'll change unless it gets on a ballot as a constitutional amendment
