The Pathway To 270 For Trump is Still Grim

The race is getting closer. However, the pathway to 270 for Trump is still grim. Trump needs to win all the states that Mitt won in 2012. He must also flip other blue states red. Trump is losing in North Carolina, a state that Mitt won. If Trump loses Florida, ballgame over Clinton will be president.

Even North Carolina is starting to look better for Trump. The last 2 polls listed in the RCP both show Trump with a lead. In 1, Trump is leading by 7% points and in the other by 2%. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...nson-5951.html
Granted, this still leaves Trump slightly trailing in the electoral college. But the momentum, at this point, is with Trump. It aint over until the fat lady sings.

Don't bother to offer me this bet. Even if I was sure Trump would win (and I'm not), I wouldn't waste my time betting with you. If you lose the bet, you will find some way to try to wiggle out of it. It's what you do!

Trump may lead in two polls, but he is behind in 4 others polls listed by RCP. North Carolina is a must have for Trump.

Today RCP has Clinton ahead of Trump in 5 out of 6 Florida polls. If Clinton wins Florida or North Carolina it's over for Trump.
