Everyone likes watching a train wreck.
The RNC was the NASCAR 10-car pileup. The DNC was the pits.

here's the latest polls 7 hours ago : http://www.nydailynews.com/news/poli...icle-1.2733173 Originally Posted by Luke_WyattNo matter which side you are on, the 17% undecided is a worrisome statistic.
No matter which side you are on, the 17% undecided is a worrisome statistic.#1: Without analyzing the variables as to the poll questions, data processing, and manner of taking the polls it is difficult at best to evaluate the accuracy of the published "results" and whether they even reflect the data .... recent RCP poll result changing to favor Clinton show "an issue" in portraying the "results" as a legitimate trend (I keep going back to 2004, Ohio, and John Kerry regarding the exit polls his people relied upon showing he was carrying Ohio).
Here is an interesting article on the states Trump needs to win Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania to have any chance in the electoral vote. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

His presence reminds folks "he's around"!
"Thursday was the highest-rated night of the week for both parties, but Trump had bigger gains, giving him the bragging rights at the end of the convention period. (CNN)"No one said what you posted was at odds with the cited article, speedy, but you did leave out the punch line.
What did I post that disagreed with anything you posted? The DNC had more viewers the first 3 days of their respective conventions. All I said was that your post failed to mention that. The RNC had more viewers the last day.
If you think the print in bold is important, fine. When you add all 4 days together, the RNC had overall total higher ratings. Nothing I posted said otherwise. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

The viewer ratings showed that hildebeest sucked hind tit; meanwhile, you just suck, Lubed Wide-ass.
Overall, the DNC was a far better organized event and had better ratings and speakers as a whole. Originally Posted by Luke_Wyatt

yes, not only that I'm highlighting how quickly Trump's supposed lead can turn on a dime.. I don't know what the campaign can do at this point.. if that Cleveland bump is already gone, I don't see any hope. Originally Posted by Chung TranNow we have the debates coming up and let's be honest Hillary is a far better debater than Trump. I would be surprised if Trump wins one debate- his smart ass remarks won't fly in the presidential debates. Trump is already crying foul about the dates of the debates saying they conflict with the NFL- does Trump realize the dates are agreed upon by a bipartisian committee and he's already saying the DEM's rigged the schedule what a fucking ass clown.

Originally Posted by Chung TranThe "fundamentals" of the RCP poll was modified to reflect a lead, when in fact based upon the questions that reflect the reality with named candidates on the ballots Clinton and Trump were tied. The number crunching/comparison seems to suggest that Johnson is draining support away from Clinton.
