    CNN is tripping over themselves to rave about the speakers and speeches. Not biased at all.

    CNN is for Democrats what Fox is for Republicans: a good place to hear commentary that confirms what you think about the world.

    CNN is also known as the Clinton News Network.

    It took them a while, but I think they've finally figured out that pandering to one side of the political spectrum is a good financial model. Wonder where they got that idea?

    I've watched both of the conventions prime time speeches.

    I thought Kaine did rather poor. A stumbling, almost stuttering style of speaker.

    Obama's speech was excellent. That doesn't mean I agree with everything he said but the speech was well done.

    Shock poll: Nate Silver’s election forecast now has Trump winning

    [​IMG]

    FiveThirtyEight’s “now-cast,” Silver’s model, considers more than just polling in its forecast and currently predicts the popular vote going 45.4 percent to Trump vs. 45.1 percent to Clinton, with the Electoral College giving Trump 285 votes and Clinton 252.6. This is the first time the “now-cast” forecast has been projected Trump to win.

    Amazing, but I bet it doesn't look that way next week after Hillary gets her convention bounce.

    Some may defect over to the Green Party candidate, but the majority probably will fall in line. I'd expect that a lot of the blue doggers that were kind of leaning towards Trump will get pulled back in to the mother ship as well.

    So Katy Perry is gonna sing? Gag... Hopefully it's lip synced cause she is as harsh on the ears as Hillary Clinton during live performances.

    The campaign strategy clearly is to try and make Hiliar look like a good human being.

    Who would you rather have a beer with, Hiliar or Trump?

    What if you don't like beer? Can I have a Long Island iced tea with Trump?

    Hmmm. Tough choice. Can I pass it through my kidneys and pee on their shoes?

    Trump would make it rain at the strip club. Hiliar would take a poll to see what she should do.

    Trump has never drunk alcohol. So on that basis alone, I'd rather grab a beer with Clinton. He also doesn't have friends, only business relationships and family. Kind of creepy.
