538 now gives trump a 1 in 3 shot to win
http://www.vox.com/2016/11/3/13147678/nate-silver-fivethirtyeight-trump-forecasttheir model, which is usually incredibly accurate. gives Hillary a path to win if she takes Pennsylvania, Virginia, colorado, and new Hampshire. I still think she wins, but I can't see her getting more than 280 at the most.
this is gonna be a tight, nerve-wracking election. and the democrats deserve it for nominating Hillary and running the condescending and shitty campaign that they have.

The problem is that the GOP nominated the one person she can beat.
But let's be real, somebody somewhere is sitting on video of Trump saying the N word or faggot (abundance? DDY??) and is waiting for just the right moment (or the right price) to release it.
Gonna be an interesting five days.
Clinton's were terrible and were nothing more than "the children are watching! he says naughty words!." fucking zero to get you excited about voting for her.
Trump's were partially terrible but still had scenes of him talking to workers, making speeches about bringing back jobs, etc.
Had you known nothing else, just by watching their ads, trump would win by 30 points
On pure wit alone, I had to awesome it.
Kasich would be up about 10 points right now. He'd carry Ohio, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. He had more crossover appeal than Trump in a general election.
The general electorate is much different than the Republican primary electorate.
Trump doesn't appeal to enough women or minorities to win. His only hope is that Hillary turns off enough of her base to lose.
The other Republicans could have eaten into her base and won more moderates.
The fact that the Republican party nominated a candidate that is so badly misaligned with the country as a whole is a bad sign for the party's future.
I would add Rubio to the mix. He'd be a big boost in Florida, Nevada, New Mexico, and Colorado.
I think Rubio or Kasich would have more appeal. The other 15 candidates no.
Christie- lmao
Fiorina- Not a chance
Cruz- Would scare away moderates
Bush- Would be spending 3/4 of the election defending what his brother did.
Paul- I don't know
Everybody else had no chance from the beginning
