I don’t mean to suggest that Clinton hasn’t screwed up.

But the Republican vote has increased in every election over the past 16 years, meaning many see Pennsylvania as one of the key swing states.
Clinton and Trump had their best fundraising months of the campaign in August, NBC’s Leigh Ann Caldwell reports.
As for Donald Trump, excessive profiling is a must for any immigrant.
Third, Trump needs to soften his image and appear presidential.
This ad prompts two questions: Who cares, and who is Richard Hanna?
Hillary Clinton’s campaign is getting a boost from former cast members on “The West Wing”.
Clinton’s objective is twofold: To lift her sagging approval ratings as well as build trust in her agenda and earn a mandate that could help her, should she be elected, govern in a divided Washington.
Tim Kaine is in Reno, while Chelsea Clinton campaigns in MI.
“All of a sudden she’s got “extreme vetting” and she’s got all of these terms”, Trump said.
Trump has never dug out of the basement created by his earlier gaffes. “This is not a decision most politicians would have similarly made while cramming for such an important engagement”.
It is building on the hallowed playbook written by President Barack Obama’s campaign teams, implementing technological advancements that enable field organizers to find, track and prod potential voters with even more precision and efficiency. Four years ago this week, it released a hit on the Romney-Ryan ticket for favoring the voucherization of Medicare. What is just as encouraging for the Clinton camp is that they are running almost even when it comes to voter enthusiasm.
Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, has been saying the same in recent weeks.
The polls have only been this close twice before. In that parallel universe, a smug Washington Post reporter might be asking why the Clinton campaign didn’t use the hours upon hours of Trump gaffes instead. In the ’80s, Trump mastered the art of the deal. But why not Trump himself?
In the fictional TV show, The West Wing, intellectual heavyweight President Jed Bartlet delivers a knockout punch to his less sophisticated, more bombastic Republican rival during the presidential debates by asking him for “the next ten words”, beyond the ten word sound bite that his staff had coached him to say during debate prep.
“This is someone who can be triggered very quickly”.
I’d go a little further, though, and give the liberals some credit. He focuses on democracy, global politics, political violence, voting, and elections. I’m a Democrat and I think Hillary is a liar. It wasn’t just that Trump was toxically unpopular. It’s a challenging goal given how much she has framed the election as a referendum on Trump; Clinton risks the result being interpreted as a repudiation of him, rather than a validation of her. Clinton is still in the lead, even if her margin has narrowed. Clinton’s not as able as Sanders to attack Trump on trade, but she has plenty of openings on economics. But she still has to meet them.
Mrs Clinton now has a nine point lead over Mr Trump in Pennsylvania, according to a Morning Call/Muhlenberg poll released at the weekend. The programs compose personalized follow-up emails and texts from the canvasser, catered to the specific interests of the voters they chat up. Diehard birthers and other paranoids will believe what they want to believe, undeterred by anything so trivial as evidence or a lack of it. Donald Trump shoots from the hip. Not only is that a risky message that could be upended by a strong Trump debate performance, it simply hasn’t been compelling.
