Morning 
So am I the only one who doesn't trust ANY polls coming out and am a little concerned that people are too excited about the early voting numbers?

A lot of people are.
I am trying not to pay too much attention myself.
Five. More. Days.

Nope I don't either. The media is fudging them in order to drive ratings. This election was over the moment early voting started.
That said, the combination of the GOP being so emboldened to push civil discourse this far into a cesspool and the corporate media's profit driven motives are extremely dangerous. Something needs to be done to stop it NOW.

We all know they, the media, want it to be close cause it makes for better ratings and therefore more ad buys, but you are confident Hillary is still going to win? 538 is making it look like she's lost FL, OH and NC. And then of course they finally get the assbutt to shut up so he's been quiet in the news and all we hear is f-ing emails 24/7.

Thing is, as the media bears considerable responsibility for the rise of Farkface von Clownstick, it's only fitting that their creation turns on them.
Unfortunately, the ones who SHOULD be out there taking shots from the deplorables are still fairly well isolated from them.

Good morning, bloggers!!!!
I went to bed very early this morning after the Chicago Cubs win. Fireworks were quite loud here in Northwest Indiana.
It is only five more days, so the Democrats have to get out every voter. Take nothing for granted.
