In my home state of Colorado (dog gone it) I won't be able to see any more of those adds against Trump. Why? Hillary Clinton is leading by so much here, there's no point in spending any more money here. In fact she is leading in all the swing states by an average of 7.9 points which I'll bet the internal polling data that the Clinton campaign is looking at is a lot higher than that..

Now we have Pennsylvania and Virginia that have also been taken off the advertisement list. So where's this money headed? Into those deep red states, that are in play like Nevada.
Poll: Clinton leads Trump in Nevada

In fact Trump is losing states that Romney won.
Relax, Donald Trump Can’t Win
New poll: Trump LOSING a red state Romney WON by 9% in 2012…

Is the election over yet? Hell, Trump is just getting started. And he has help from the Old Clinton Camp. Read what Dick Morris, Bubba's old political advisor has to say. Remember, if it weren't true Hillary would sue him in a heartbeat for a whole bunch of charges. Hilliary is toast.

BILL CLINTON'S LOVING WIFE --- by DICK MORRIS

If you happen to see the Bill Clinton five minute TV ad for Hillary in which he introduces the commercial by saying he wants to share some things we may not know about Hillary's background, beware as I was there for most of their presidency and know them better than just about anyone. I offer a few corrections:
Bill says: "In law school Hillary worked on legal services for the poor."

Facts are: Hillary's main extra-curricular activity in 'Law School' was helping the Black Panthers, on trial in Connecticut for torturing and killing a 'Federal Agent.' She went to Court every day as part of a Law student monitoring committee trying to spot civil rights violations and develop grounds for appeal.

Bill says: "Hillary spent a year after graduation working on a Children's rights project for poor kids."

Facts are: Hillary interned with Bob Truehaft, the head of the California Communist Party. She met Bob when he represented the Panthers and traveled all the way to San Francisco to take an internship with him.

Bill says: "Hillary could have written her own job ticket, but she turned down all the lucrative job offers."

Facts are: She flunked the D.C. bar exam, 'Yes', flunked it, it is a matter of record, and only passed the Arkansas bar. She had no job offers in Arkansas, 'None', and only got hired by the University of Arkansas Law School at Fayetteville because Bill was already teaching there. She did not join the prestigious Rose Law Firm until Bill became Arkansas Attorney General and was made a partner only after he was elected Arkansas Governor.

Bill says: "President Carter appointed Hillary to the Legal Services Board of Directors and she became its Chairman."

Facts are: The appointment was in exchange for Bill's support for Carter in his 1980 primary against Ted Kennedy. Hillary then became chairman in a coup in which she won a majority away from Carter's choice to be chairman.

Bill says: "She served on the board of the Arkansas Children's Hospital."

Facts are: Yes she did. But her main board activity, not mentioned by Bill, was to sit on the Wal-Mart Board of Directors, for a substantial fee. She was silent about their labor and health care practices.

Bill says: "Hillary didn't succeed at getting health care for all Americans in 1994 but she kept working at it and helped to create the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) that provides five million children with health insurance."

Facts are: Hillary had nothing to do with creating CHIP. It was included in the budget deal between Clinton and Republican Majority Leader Senator Trent Lott. I know; I helped to negotiate the deal. The money came half from the budget deal and half from the Attorney Generals' tobacco settlement. Hillary had nothing to do with either source of funds.

Bill says: "Hillary was the face of America all over the World." (LOL)

Facts are: Her visits were part of a program to get her out of town so that Bill would not appear weak by feeding stories that Hillary was running the White House. Her visits abroad were entirely 'touristic' and symbolic and there was no substantive diplomacy on any of them.

Bill says: "Hillary was an excellent Senator who kept fighting for Children's and Women's issues."

Facts are: Other than totally meaningless legislation like changing the names on courthouses and post offices, she has passed only four substantive pieces of legislation. One set up a national park in Puerto Rico. A second provided respite care for family members helping their relatives through Alzheimer's or other conditions. And two were routine bills to aid 911 victims and responders which were sponsored by the entire N.Y. delegation. Presently she is trying to have the US memorialize Woodstock.

Here is what bothers me more than anything else about Hillary Clinton. She has done everything possible to weaken the President and our Country (that's you and me) when it comes to the 'War on Terror'.

1. She wants to close GITMO and move the combatants to the USA where they would have access to our legal system.

2. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of suspected Al Qaeda phone calls to/from the USA.

3. She wants to grant constitutional rights to enemy combatants captured on the battlefield.

4. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of money transfers between suspected Al Qaeda cells and supporters in the USA.

5. She wants to eliminate the type of interrogation tactics used by the Military & CIA where coercion might be used when questioning known terrorists even though such tactics might save American lives.


One cannot think of a single 'Bill', Hillary has introduced or a single comment she has made that would tend to strengthen our Country in the 'War on Terror'. But, one can think of a lot of comments she has made that weaken our Country and makes it a more dangerous situation for all of us. Bottom line: She goes hand in hand with the ACLU on far too many issues where common sense is abandoned.

Think about it - he's (Dick Morris) said all of this openly, thus if he were not truthful he'd be liable for 'Defamation of Character' !

And you better believe Hillary would sue him.

Her winning in 2016 means the final death knell for America! Her whole public life has been a LIE.

Yes, Hillary is really kicking ass in the polls right now. Forrest Trump's tanking has now even put the House in play for Democrats. Go Hillary!

Strange. I read just today where she is planning on spending another $98 Million dollars to defeat Trump. This has to be the most expensive election in history and has returned the smallest results. Hillary is outspending Trump by a ratio of some 90 to 1 and only leading in single digits.
 

Kind of sounds like it’s over.

Only chance may be if Hillary passes out during one of the debates.

Your cartoon implies the well-educated are going Hillary by and large. Are they going the way of the highly educated? That’s not good because the large majority of professors in our universities do not seem to have a clue what they are talking about.

Here's another indication of just how bonkers this election season is: NBC News reported Tuesday that Hillary Clinton's campaign and its allies were set to spend $98 million in TV ads through the fall, while pro-Donald Trump groups had reserved just about $1 million in airtime so far.

Clinton's campaign and Priorities USA Action have reserved a combined $98 million in ad buys, according to ad-tracking data by SMG Delta. The pro-Trump PAC Rebuilding America Now has slated about $817,000 in air time.

That's a continuation of what's already been a huge discrepancy between the two campaigns in terms of ad buys, with the Clinton campaign and its allies spending $68 million through last week and Trump's backers spending $6 million, according to NBC.

Clinton has an ad campaign set to ramp up around the Olympics in addition to booking airtime in Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia, according to the report. The spots from Rebuilding America Now PAC are set to air on national cable and in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

That sounds more like Trump is confident and Clinton is panicked.
 
I'd take these resources if I were HIllary and double down on Ohio, Florida and go into Ga, NC and Arizona,,
Hillary should also keep a suitcase handy for her trip to the Big House. She doesn't need to take any pants suits though. She'll get her government issue jumpsuits free of charge.

Yes it kind of goes along with this Red State article--LOL

"Do you want to know how bad things really look for Trump?"

With 3 months until the general election, Hillary Clinton, the most corrupt, unlikable candidate the Democrats could offer up suddenly feels comfortable with cutting back her active ads, leading up to the general.

It makes sense, actually. What could she say about Trump that casts him in a worse light than what he says himself on a near-daily basis? The Cheeto-devil has made shooting himself in the foot into an art form.

Politico is reporting today on Clinton’s plans:

Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign has left Virginia off its upcoming battleground-state television ad buy beginning next week — the second state to be dropped in recent weeks as Clinton holds a significant lead over Donald Trump nationally and in key states.

The campaign’s new television ad buy, which begins next Tuesday, consists of Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania. The reservations, which could easily be amended in the future, run through Labor Day.

The decision reflects increasing confidence among Democrats that Clinton will keep Virginia, a state that had been expected to be bitterly contested, in the blue column this fall. The pro-Clinton super PAC Priorities USA is scaling back its Virginia ad campaign later this month, as well.

Grasp the gist, here: Trump poses NO threat.

This follows closely on the heels of the campaign choosing to drop Colorado ad buys, as well.

POLITICO’s Battleground State polling average gives Clinton a 5.2 point lead in Virginia — with the two newest public surveys, conducted last month, before Clinton chose Sen. Tim Kaine as her running mate, showing her with leads of 7 points and 9 points over Trump.

A Clinton campaign official, speaking on background to discuss campaign strategy, stressed that the campaign could return to the airwaves in both Virginia and Colorado at any moment. And the official added that voters in those two states may still see some Clinton spots on television: The campaign is advertising across the country on cable and on NBC’s Olympics telecasts over the next two weeks.
Trump ads for the general election? They equal: 0.

Team Trump are counting on the kindness of media (see: Fox News) to give him the same amount of fawning coverage, and they are not failing him, but it may not be enough, at this point.

Anyone who still thinks Trump is in it to win it is deluding themselves."

And yet Trump, who is pulling in a lot of money, is confident enough to have only reserved less than $1 in ads. Thus far in the campaign, Clinton has spent ten times as much of ad buys as Trump and is projected to spend about 90 times as much going forward, so who is showing confidence, Clinton or Trump?

I knew you were going to try and spin this somehow.

1. Trump hasn't got the donations to keep up with her in television adds. 98 million to 1 million.
2. I think he's done funding his own campaign.
3. It sounds like these T.V. adds need to be purchased (in advance) which he has ZIPPO in place.

Now for the ground game.
Donald Trump needs a robust ground game to defeat Hillary Clinton in November, and there’s worry his campaign lacks the organization and funds needed to build one.

Take this statistic: According to the most recent Fox News poll, 48 percent of Republicans will have to “hold their nose” to vote for Mr. Trump. This compares to Mrs. Clinton’s 37 percent of “nose-holders” within the Democratic Party.

Unless something dramatic happens, this statistic is problematic for both presidential candidates in that it creates a turn-out problem. For people who don’t particularly like a candidate will find it harder to motivate themselves to go out and vote in November — especially if the weather is bad.

Given that the popularity of both Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton is at record lows this election cycle, turnout among supporters — even reluctant supporters — will matter. This is where Mrs. Clinton’s ground game and money will matter. Her campaign will identify these reluctant voters down to their home addresses.

Her campaign will then call them, knock on their doors — heck — they may even arrange rides to the polling station, in order to get out this vote. It will take time, money and organization — all of which Mrs. Clinton has.

Compare that to Mr. Trump. A report from NBC News said the Trump campaign lags “far behind the Clinton campaign, which has over a dozen senior staff dedicated to communications as well as teams devoted to modern data and analytics, an area where Trump is publicly skeptical of hiring. In addition, Clinton enjoys support from established super PACs like Correct The Record and American Bridge that respond to attacks and promote opposition research.”
Donald Trump ground-game problem

You Trump supporter's better get out there now and start knocking on doors, just make certain you wear a full metal jacket when you do--LOL Not everyone is attached at the hip of FOX News so you have some real work to do. In fact their ratings have dropped they're now second place to CNN.

In fact it looks like FOX News has lost 50% of it's viewers over Trump.
