It’s starting to look like the debate did have an impact on the race as new numbers come in.
– Rasmussen went from a 5 point Trump lead to a 1 point Clinton one.
– Morning Consult Poll went from Trump +1 to Hillary +3.
– Echelon Insights shows Hillary +5. Before the debate she was plus 2.
– PPP ( A Dem leaning poll) now shows Hillary up 4. (no prior base)
Then the newest key state polls show a Clinton bounce too.
– Fox Michigan – Hillary by 5
– PPP Colorado now shows Hillary by 6
– PPP has Hillary ahead in Florida and North Carolina now by 2 in each
– They also have her ahead in Pa. and Va. by 6 in each
No good news in these post debate polls for Trump. Real Clear Politics which had the race down to under one and today it is up to three.
Based upon the news coverage all week I think this is going to widen more. Trump is in trouble and needs a major event to change things. That electoral blowout we have been discussing is back in focus.
Here are links to three of the polls if you want a deeper analysis.

The press is continuing it’s onslaught against Trump. No sooner had the Newsweek story about Cuba hit the airwaves, they followed with another hit. This one from the LA Times said Trump “wanted the less attractive woman fired” when he opened a golf course in 2005. They are pounding it and no doubt the Clinton machine is planting the stories. They are pros at the political game. Here’s the story.

What got little play was the story about Chelsea Clinton’s remarks concerning Trump’s daring to mention her father’s sexual “transgressions”. She was angry about it even though he held back and her Mom was unafraid to bring up charges like the Miss Universe woman. Well, Juanita Broaddrick immediately went after Chelsea. Did you see her tweets? Six devastating tweets. One said, “I was 35 years old when Bill Clinton, Ark. Attorney General raped me and Hillary tried to silence me. I am now 73….it never goes away”. Then she said “your parents are not good people”. She added, “your father was, and probably still is, a sexual predator. Your mother has always lied and covered up for him”. Wow. Read all six here:

Speaking of the Clinton’s and the White House. You all know the story of them stealing when they left to the point they had to be asked to bring things back. Amazing and we are about to give them the keys again. Well add this. Do you remember the damage the Clinton staff did on the way out? Things like taking the W’s off keyboards? In fact they did all this: “Scatter bumper stickers. Record obscene voice-mail greetings. Damage furniture. White-out computer keyboards. Smear Vaseline over desks. Unplug refrigerators. Write on walls. Take cellphones, TV remotes or presidential medallions. Glue telephones or drawers. Abandon holiday decorations. Smash locks”.
The Obama team is already telling people not to be like the Clintons. But we are giving them the keys again!

Finally Trump back on Twitter this AM at 3 and 5 in the morning is not good. He is keeping a story going that is nothing but bad for him. The answer was to have his team discredit Hillary for bringing the former Miss Universe forward. All they should have said, is take a look at how low she has gone. Check her background and credibility. Show me the tape he called her a cleaning lady. The Clinton team is playing you, the press again, to try and impact the people. If you fall for it, well then it proves your bias. Want a real women’s story who had their lives impacted? Talk to the ones she bullied for her husband. We are through commenting on this junk. American citizens want change and that is us. She is more of the same.
