    You do that.

    I look at them and look for trends. You can have polls from 2 pollsters that are different. The RCP average isn't an accurate picture of the peoples' sentiment - it's just an average of poll results where the polls are radically different types. Some polls are likely voters, some are registered voters, some are just the population at large. What the RCP average does tell you is the most recent polls favor whichever candidates and an indication of the strength of the sentiment. Not accurate.

    If there were EVER a year for a strong centrist third-party candidate to make a run, this would be it. If the Libertarians could put forth somebody who's socially progressive, fiscally conservative, and not crazy, that person would stand a great chance.

    Not gonna happen though.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I agree, though it would probably also need to be someone with existing national name recognition and a lot of charisma, in order to really catch lightning in a bottle.

    I bet Mark Cuban could mount quite a campaign over the next 6 months if he were interested in doing so.

    Ha! I like Cuban, good business man, savvy dude. But Geez, I can't see him wanting to go against Trump. Hillary might be a hoot for him but not Trump.

    Cuban is frenemies with trump. And has said he thinks a business person would do well as president, but he doesnt think trump is the one to do it.

    Must think extremely low of hillary if he isnt supporting her.

    I wrote in Ron Paul.

    You tell me what I do and you simply don't know what I do.
