    Campaign meltdown? The money and models give her an almost 80% chance of winning.

    If that is a "meltdown" then I am sure almost any other candidate running for President would gladly accept it.

    Oops yes meant to source your article!

    It was a good read.

    This article is going to disappear within the Clinton investigation.

    80% based off of what?

    I guess you're going for the Hail Mary that Hillary's pollsters are as inept as Romney's.

    There's an interesting politico interview with Ted Cruz's campaign manager that explained how trumps people were pretty much in the stone age, let alone Romney's level, with regard to triangulation and voter identification.

    I'll dig up the podcast if you're interested

    Yep. If Trump wins, shoot, I may be leaving more than the board...

    (j/k- where in the heck would I move to?)

    80% based of Vegas, the advanced polling models (for example Nate Silver).

    Are you going to argue otherwise?

    Nate Silver ‏@NateSilver538
    Either polls are having trouble capturing a random sample, or voter preferences are quite volatile. Either way, lots of uncertainty.

    He doesn't know anything right now.

    This was tweeted today.

    These polls are re weighting themselves based off prior history. If Republican turn out is similar to primaries Trump will win.

    He's even or within margin of error in Colorado, Minnesota, New Hampshife, New Mexico,Pennsylvania, Indiana.

    He's up in NC, Ohio, Florida, and Arizona currently or based off voter trends per prior elections that suggest republicans come out more so on the 8th.

    Here is a list of Toss up states:

    Ohio (18)
    Florida (29)
    North Carolina (15)
    Nevada (6)
    Iowa (6)
    Arizona (11)
    Georgia (16)
    Colorado (9)
    Maine CD2 (1)

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/2016_elections_electoral_college_map.html

    Trump pretty much would need to win every one of those states.

    In the previous election half went to obama and half to romney. If she won Colorado or North Carolina she wins the election. Currently she is up 4 and 3 percent in those two places. The numbers just don't agree with you.

    It's a meltdown in that her numbers are dropping, she's knee deep in a renewed criminal investigation against her, she hitched herself to a failed unpopular healthcare program and Wikileaks's exposing her shady dealings every day.

    No candidate would want that kinda heat.

    You should add Michigan, Minnesota, Indiana, and Wisconsin to that list.
