Hopefully nothing metallic will fall off HC and she will see eye to eye with herself.

And in the real world, let's hope she really is OK and isn't carrying a serious condition that none of us ought to wish on anyone regardless of them being worthy of losing the race to the White House.

If she enters these up coming televised debates with the usual arrogance of a career Politician she could turn even more people towards him . We live in Strange times.
Latest polls this week have Clinton's lead growing slightly again. The race was always going to tighten, even a poor candidate like Romney got 47%. There are a large proportion of the people who will vote the ticket, even with a demagogue at the top. I still believe that Trump will poll as low as 40% which will mean a disaster for the down ticket. He trails in most of the purple states and even where he's ahead (Ohio and Florida) it's by a tiny percentage and within the margin of error and that'll correct on the 8th. The democrat ground game in key states is so good, so established and so professional that they'll already know exactly where they need to press. In 2012 they knew how people in Ohio were going to vote on a micro level which is why they won it even though Romney was expected to.

Polls lie because the people polled lie.

BTW - Did you ever get to the bottom of why Obama wasn't in the Oval on 9/11?
Opening for Middlesex at Lords instead wasn't he?

Interesting - do you think there is a "shy Trump" effect?

What is the historic accuracy of US polls? - genuine question (and I know the dice have no memory)

I know its the dailymail but still:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3805400/Wh...

Shows that Obama did know about her private email server which means he lied when he said he didn't know it existed. Don't understand how she's able to get away with it.

Because it's not a material issue?

Speeches in Florida, Sept. 15 and Sept. 19.

An aide told the F.B.I. of only two occasions in which phones were destroyed with a hammer."

oh I guess that makes it OK then

Bit worrying that Trump can't tell the difference between 2 and 13....

Just means that there are lots of people who need 'gut feel' black and white answers to complex problems, which don't require them to think too hard.

Depressing that there are people who think that this dumbing down is something to celebrate IMO

Lots of people destroy their old cell phones. Not unusual at all and if she did it I'm not in the least bit surprised. If you've spent 30 years having everything you say and write scrutinized by a hostile media and the Republican Party you would be a bit paranoid about privacy too.

Gordon Brown did. Various holes in the walls of Number 10 testify to it.
