Following the announcement from Bill Clinton that large segments of the American  electorate are “coal people“, you know ‘THOSE PEOPLE’ – in the ‘US’ -vs- ‘THEM’ world, those simpletons, too uneducated to properly evaluate the magnanimous magnificence of the Clinton family, Hillary jumps into the foray with her own specific ridicule.
Secretary Hillary Clinton telling her donors at a fundraising dinner that Donald Trump supporters are “deplorable”.

Watch:

It’s the same condescending framework she used earlier in the day when granting an interview with an Israeli News Outlet:

The National Baptist Convention is being held in Kansas City Missouri with thousands of baptist worshipers from all fifty states.  Hillary Clinton was the key note speaker.
The convention organizers anticipated considerable -and enthusiastic- attendance, amid a predominantly black audience.  The first day of the convention almost every seat was full –SEE HERE–  There was no reason to anticipate the convention attendees would not show up for Hillary Clinton.
The Kansas City Convention Center was set up in the same manner as the prior days general sessions where almost every seat was full.  According to the convention center “This annual meeting typically draws 20,000 or more delegates”.
Then this happened:

It gets worse:

Sometimes you just have to laugh.   However, it really sucks to be Gary Johnson right now.
Poll after poll is showing presidential candidate Gary Johnson in the race hurts Hillary Clinton more than Donald Trump.  And you know what that means?
Yup, time for the MSM to wage a thermonuclear media operation against the guy.

If only Gary Johnson was hurting Donald Trump instead of Hillary Clinton the media would have brushed the flub under the rug.   Alas…

A Suffolk University “non-media” poll released today shows exceptionally good news for candidate Donald Trump in the quest to overcome the rigged system. Unlike most media funded polls, the Suffolk poll is very extensive and provides full disclosure on all aspects of the construct allowing for comprehensive research, analysis and evaluation.

The general top line result shows Donald Trump  winning with 44%, and Hillary Clinton 41%. However, the fully disclosed methodology provides an even greater level of optimism. Here’s why:

This survey of 500 likely North Carolina general election voters was conducted between September 5 and September 7, 2016, and is based on live telephone interviews of adults who indicated they were likely to vote in the November 2016 general election for president. Each area’s quota and demographic information — including race and age — was determined from previous like elections (link)

We have already statistically quantified the significant variances from 2012 to 2016. Suffolk relying on baselines from ’08 and ’12 presidential models means they are under evaluating the ’16 Trump enthusiasm and Trump registration gap.
Again, Suffolk provides full disclosure and sunlight; their use of historical reference for current cycle is honestly disclosed and understandable.
Additionally: Here’s the key takeaways that, when added to the (understandable) assumption, underscore the exponential optimism: (more…)

If you wondered what the internal focus grouped feedback was to Secretary Clinton’s Commander-in-Chief forum presentation, you only need to note that first thing this morning her campaign hastily scheduled a press conference on the tarmac of the airport.
Clinton’s first press conference in 278 days.

Essentially the press conference was typical Clintonian deflection and complaints about media coverage of her performance. From the video it appears four questions were agreed upon, but another was taken by Andrea Mitchell.
Obviously the sycophants in the traveling Clinton press poll (all pre-approved by the campaign) did not ask any substantive questions….  And that’s the reason for doing the presser on the tarmac, as opposed to a formally scheduled press conference where a full press corps would ask more targeted questions.

When the FBI released the Hillary Clinton interview documents on the Friday before labor day even the insufferable leftist media flinched.  The timing of the release was entirely too obvious, too visible, too representational of the system being rigged.
The data within the release was additionally damaging toward the entire construct of “trust in government”.  Further erosion of public confidence is the consequence.

Which leads an intelligent person to wonder if James Comey isn’t intentionally trying to burn down the system.  After all, he’s not a stupid man.
When a system, any system, or even “the system“, is so horribly corrupt there’s always a rebound effect possible in direct proportion to the severity of the corruption.  No systems of governance (or of any sort) can stay tilted toward systemic corruption forever (see Venezuela). The best the indulgent power agents can do is postpone the inevitable correction as long as possible.

Moderator Matt Lauer should have disclosed his involvement with, and donations to, the Hillary Clinton Foundation at the outset of this program/forum.   Not doing so was a terrible exhibition of poor journalistic ethics.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, and Republican nominee Donald Trump, took the stage in New York at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum to field questions on national security, military affairs and veterans issues.
Two segments below.  The first with Hillary Clinton; the second with Donald Trump:

The second thirty minute segment was Donald Trump:

If you missed the earlier discussion thread about Obama’s ISIS strategy/non-strategy  (SEE HERE), you might miss the essence of the brutal stupidity exhibited here by Jake Tapper.  Liberals always play the game of pretending not to know…
Senator Jeff Sessions does a great job delivering the Triple Penguin Award:

It was the anticipation of this predictable MSM approach exhibited by Tapper that was precisely the reason for the earlier discussion thread. (more…)

No, we are not going to reverse course and start deconstructing the insufferable media polling. We are committed to continuing to ignore the nonsense, the ‘shiny thing’ chatter.
However, every once in a while an example surfaces where we can explain that decision using a current case in point.  Cue today’s PPP Florida poll:

(Via PPP) […] PPP’s newest Florida poll finds a very tight race for President in the state. In the full field Donald Trump gets 44% to 43% for Hillary Clinton, with Gary Johnson at 5%, and Jill Stein and Evan McMullin each at 1%. But in a head to head between Clinton and Trump, the nominal lead flips to Clinton at 47/46. That’s because voters who support one of the minor candidates or are undecided in the full field pick Clinton by 12 points over Trump if they had to choose just between the two major candidates. (link)

OMG… “tight race“.  Oooooo,…. Ahhhhh,….. etc.
However, look at this first:

Wait, huh… wha?…. 16% of Registered Democrats are supporting Donald Trump?  By itself that’s called burying the lede; but wait…, Independents are split even (not likely)… and yet somehow Trump is losing overall?
The only way that’s even remotely possible is if PPP necessarily over sampled the Democrats in Florida.  It would take a considerable “over sampling” to pull off a Clinton poll lead. Let’s look: (more…)
