    Can he win? Is he the favorite, as we sit?

    That's what I'm asking.

    No. The electoral map isn't swinging that much, if at all, in his favor from 2012.

    But how many of them WILL vote is the question. Counting on them is counting the chickens before they hatch, and the Republicans aren't really known for their GOTV efforts.

    Its dedication to combatting global warming is becoming a very thorny problem for Democrats, particularly with some of their long-time, reliable constituents, namely labor unions:

    Seems like this gives Trump, with his fierce dedication to protecting working-class jobs, a very big opening, especially when you consider the disenchantment with Clinton sowed by: (1) the Sanders campaign running to her left on economic issues; and (2) her comments in West Virginia.

    This is real. Obit from Richmond:

    Faced with the prospect of voting for either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, Mary Anne Noland of Richmond chose, instead, to pass into the eternal love of God on Sunday, May 15, 2016, at the age of 68.

    NOLAND, MARY ANNE

    As always, a candidate who told the truth (Clinton in this case) to voters, namely that coal is a dying industry because fracked natural gas (and you know Trump's for that, too) is cheaper will be penalized for candor. The biggest liars in politics are the American people. They say they want straight talk, but they sure as hell don't. They want the lie that allows them the easiest out. Our one insoluble bipartisan problem.

    Ah, apologies. I went back three pages and didn't see it.

    Trump does not have "fierce dedication" to anything except his own ego.
