Yeah, you guys are right. That should be enough to at least make the Trump campaign start sweating.

Not necessarily that, they just don't have a cohesive communication strategy, or throw everything at the wall deliberately.

Didn't Mason Dixon have a bad polling record in 2008?

Montana probably falls before Utah (Hillary winning there is still a fantasy). Though I don't think we've had much of any polling of it.

PPP in PA this weekend. I hope the convention + H/K tour seals PA for Dems.

A nostalgic blast from the past, when McCain wasn't a complete piece of shit like he ahs been for the past several years.
They won't. Rumors will fly, Johnson will talk about it, they won't deny. But they won't openly endorse.

My favorite speakers at the DNC:
1) Hillary
She put everyone at ease, exuding kindness, confidence and strength. She put the exclamation point on an important message conveyed throughout the convention that the Democratic Party is a patriotic party, not traitors like Republicans have tried to 'pin' on us for so long. She made a strong case to progressives, Democrats, Republicans... all Americans.
2) Khizr Khan
The definition of sacrifice and love of country. If Trump could feel shame, this would do it.
3) Anastasia Somoza
Trump is a person of low character. Anastasia kindly pointed this out. We need to hold Trump accountable, and she bravely did that.

They were even covering the convention? They weren't earlier in the week.

Maybe it would have been a good idea to have one bigger name that night. Al Gore spoke before Obama on night 4 in '08 -- maybe having him or Kerry speak before Chelsea would've helped goose the ratings. I still don't understand Obama's ban on cabinet members speaking. Has any president ever done that before? It didn't stop Tom Perez from being there. It didn't stop Obama from speaking. It just makes no sense to me.

Well the Utah win is based on the idea that Hillary gets a plurality as a result of Johnson stealing votes from Trump.

The problem is that Hillary's ceiling in the state is probably in the low 30s and Johnson/Trump are unlikely to split the vote evenly. Trump only needs like 36% to win the state.
thats still almost an impossibiltiy

Screw him. They can come back with the "US" message even stronger. It's not just about her, it's about everyone on that stage for 4 days.

I love that. I hope Trump threatens to sue him.
I think the bottom line, after seeing the MO, GA, and AZ polls recently, is that one of the top priorities for the Dems as a party this cycle needs to be registering new voters in the battleground States of the future. Even though it will be a red state for the foreseeable future, I want to see a huge hispanic voter registration in Texas to lay the groundwork for the future. Make sure AZ becomes a perpetual battleground. Lay the groundwork for GA becoming a true battleground in the future. I used to think Trump was just going to be a turnout machine for hispanic voters, but he is so divisive to ever single minority group, that Dems have an opportunity to build such a massive systemic advantage in terms of a voter database, that the GOP won't be able to catch up in the foreseeable future.

I would say you could easily make a Top 25 or so and they would all be better than every RNC speech besides Ivanka's which would be like 18th if we combined both conventions.

Also, the other part of that MO poll that I missed shows Blunt only up by 4.

Just making them pay to defend Texas would be a big win. That's an expensive state to hold, and resources they could be using on offense.

Trump finally got control of his phone back. Getting into it with a Bloomberg and a retired four star general can only help him. The Clinton's should make an ad with her line about baiting him in twitter then a screen cap of this:

I mean, they could have great security, but it can still get cracked.
Especially when it's probable that this is the concerted effort of another intelligence agency...
yeah i mean, besides writing things on a piece of paper, you aren't going to protect yourself from a state sponsored hacking group
I think at this point it is fair to assume that they have agents that have infiltrated, maybe as interns. That would give them direct access to a system and allow them to install spyware. Of course this would mean that it is a concentrated effort from a foreign entity... EDIT: Just thinking out loud, don't want to come out as a conspiracy theorist and there is definitely nothing backing my assumption.

Just do everything through whatsapp or whatever encrypted messaging service can't get hacked. Or have a email server not connected to the internet and only an intranet or something. Also: DON'T CLICK ON EMAIL LINKS
But this is the new normal.
We need to find new ways to secure digital data.
OPM was hacked and their data was a million times more valuable to foreign powers. State actors are very sophisticated.
Also that should be chicken tendies
yup agreed. The proper usage is tendies not nuggets

Good idea Trump! Keep bringing people's attention to the second tier speeches that completely light you up. Don't want Islamic Shock and Khaleesi hogging all the exposure.
The thing is, he knows that this makes him look pretty and non presidential, and can't help it. He should be trying to demonstrate he is at the same level as the president and future president. Instead he is picking fights with the former mayor of new York, the senator from Massachusetts, and a retired general. And losing.
