    It's something like that. McMullen, maybe?

    Ha. I forgot his name within five minutes of reading the story. I read that he's a true patriot, though.

    40-37? Is YankeeFan theorizing that the two major party candidates are going to account for 77 percent of the total vote?

    That gets a big old YankeeFan LOL.

    The silly notion that Trump, outside of the childcare tax cuts that don't help the working class, said something beyond "Hillary bad! Obama bad!" today?

    I don't believe this.

    (And I can't do math either, as I thought that left 13% for 3rd party candidates.)

    I'm just trying to establish what Dick is predicting when he says Trump gets 37%.

    If Trump is at 37%, Clinton has to be over 50%, right?

    63%. Duh.

    Current 538 data has her winning South Carolina and losing Texas by just 3 points.

    I think we need to wait for some of that "But what if you learned she was hiding seizures? Can I show you this important subreddit that has the proof?" polling, tho.

    My guess is that the Clinton campaign wants as many Republican endorsements as it can get, in an effort to pull over more traditional Republican voters who are not buying Trump. An endorsement from someone like Kissinger runs the risk of pushing away Democratic votes, though.

    Monmouth has Clinton +13 and just for YF that is after likely voter screen. 50-37

    I think he takes an ass kicking that falls in somewhere between McGovern and Jimmy Carter. The Republicans will hold a post-mortem, then ignore it and nominate Dana White in 2020.

    I would love to meet the Democrat who is up enough on world affairs to know about and have an opinion on Henry Kissinger, and yet still angry/deranged enough to vote for Trump because of that endorsement.

    Put me down for Trump 42%. He will probably recover some and I think some of the undecideds are Republicans who will suck it up when faced with a Clinton presidency getting three court nominees.

    But this far out with a candidate this unhinged, it is hard to tell. Maybe something unthinkable happens and he recovers, maybe he remains committed to challenging his floors.
