Polls - Clinton Fading

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...nton-5491.html

So, is this the post convention bounce for Trump that will reverse itself, or is it a continuation of the fading poll results for Clinton the accelerated after Comey's report came out? In any case, Hilly needs big bounce out of Cleveland.

To us Bernie Bros, this is beginning to look like a "told you so" moment. This looks too small for a convention bounce and, after that convention, any sort of bounce seems unlikely. It appears to be a continuation of the gradual erosion of Clinton's support that's been in progress since the end of March. But I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

Bernie had no real chance, and the notion of this orange ass clown getting the nod isn't acceptable.

He consistently polled better against Trump than Clinton has. If the objective was to defeat Trump, Bernie was the logical candidate. But since the objective was to maintain the corporate stranglehold on America and since Bernie sought to end the power of the oligarchs, he had to go. And since both Clinton and Trump can be relied upon to protect the interests of the oligarchs, they've engineered the election to the point where their interests will be protected no matter who wins.

Why was the rest of the nation not as smart as you John?

You seem to have it all figured out.

The rest of the nation was unable to figure out the corruption of the housing bubble before it happened even though thousands of people willingly and actively participated in that corruption. We all played along until disaster happened and then we rewarded the crooks that orchestrated it all. The few smart folks who have figured out this election when the rest of the nation hasn't isn't surprising at all.

The results will be the same.

The truth is like poetry....and most people fucking hate poetry.....

Surely if you can grasp the truth like John others in America would be able to.

Look, ice, if you have a counter-argument to my post, then present it and then we can debate it. All you've been doing for months here is sniping at and insulting anyone you disagree with. It makes you look really bad, Proust notwithstanding.

I am the only one that has been doing this?

I am mystified while the millions of voters in New York, Ohio, California, the South, Virginia, Massachusetts, etc could not see the truth where you did.

I have much more faith in the American voter than you do.

You have to admit there's been quite a bit a sand tossed by both sides in this hard fought primary season, myself included.

The difference between the right and the left is we tend to bury the hatchet and move on.
