Title: trump pulls out of virginia
Post by: 240 is Back on October 13, 2016, 05:20:14 AM
Donald Trump's campaign has decided to close up shop in the key battleground state of Virginia, in a bid to concentrate its resources in more competitive state contests, two campaign senior sources told ABC News.

The move effectively concedes the state and its 13 electoral votes to the Democratic presidential ticket of Hillary Clinton and former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine, who’s now the state’s junior U.S. senator.

Polling conducted this month by Roanoke College gave Clinton a 9-point edge among likely voters in the state, leading with 45 percent to Trump's 36 percent.

The Trump campaign Monday fired its chairman in Virginia, Corey Stewart, for organizing a demonstration outside the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington, D.C., after numerous Republicans abandoned their support of the GOP candidate amid revelations of lewd 2005 comments he made about women.

Stewart protested the move in a post on Facebook, saying his home state is "winnable," and calling the pullout a "betrayal."

The real nail comes Friday at 4:59 PM.  Friday news dump for Sept fundraising numbers.   Clinton had what, 150 million?  More?

Paul Ryan talking all loud about how broke trump's campaign in, and said the RNC will give him ZERO DOLLARS, even after trump raised $ for them. 

If Trump limps in with 62 million earned in Sept, or some other low number, it's over.

coach, trump could admit it tomorrow, and you'd chalk it up to him pulling a reverse psy-op on us to fool all the establishment types.

He didn't build campaign infrastructure, he didn't raise much money, he refused to call donors.
THEN he went to Priebus and the RNC was going to give him all these things.
Then he starts a war with the RNC - they just pulled 100% of his TV ads.

His role, IMO, was to suck the RNC dry on money and manpower, and they figured that out. 

Now, he is hiding his Sept fundraising cause it ain't pretty.   He is cancelling TV buys and pulling out of states.  He is conceding more and more swing states.  And he's talking about SEX, and not wikileaks.

Hillary - we see from her emails - that she makes her own luck by cheating.  You think she cheated at every other thing, but didn't line up the best opposing candidate for herself ;)

They're very accurate predictors.  And they have a huge impact on fundraising.  Trump still hasn't released his Sept numbers.  Hilary released hers on Sept 2nd, bragging about 150 million or some insane number.   Paul Ryan telling politico that trump's numbers will suck.  Trump doesn't have to release them until the 15th, and he's waiting for frday news dump.

Polls do affect things.  I remember a certain getbigger ;) posting how proud he is that he's picked the winner in every election since, well... you know...  People WANT to be behind the winner, and some will see hillary leading and choose her so they're on a winning side. it does happen, unfortunately.

If the DNC has more video in their war chest, Trump won't survive on that front alone, IMO.

Look at the donations - they've been accurate.  Hilary beating him in the polls, destroying him on fundraising too.  Why haven't we seen his Sept numbers yet?  Hilary's were out 11 days ago!

And how has early voting worked out?   Dems are WAY more excited to vote early - see the absentee ballot requests
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/12/us/politics/early-voting-registration.html?_r=0

Coach, we did this dance in 2008 and 2012, when getbiggers proclaimed all the polls wrong.   They're mostly accurate.  If 8 of the top 10 polls saying she she is up by 5 points, then she probably is.   Rass and LAT always sway right, and in 2012, we saw how wrong Rass was about that.  They add their online stuff, and LAtimes asks the SAME FOLKS all year round - how accurate will that really be?  They survey the same 1000 people over and over to see if they change.

You don't have to 'trust' them - but they're pretty likely correct that Trump - without his party support, without women, without minorities, losing many religious voters, and up against the evil clinton machine - probably isn't going to win this.

He's not building campaign infrastructure, he's not blowing up TV ads in areas where it'll matter.  He's just cheerleading his base at rallies over and over.

if he's building TrumpTV, he's doing everything exactly as he should.
If he's trying to be president, he's doing everything all wrong.

If he truly wanted to win, he'd be buying airtime.  Can't imagine how bad his Sept $ was if he's cancelling florida tv.  This state is so important.

I'll admit to rejecting cnn, so maybe that has something to do with it.

The ads I saw were on local stations, and had stuff like a disabled guy saying "I want a leader who will inspire me" as a take on Trump's stupid move of making fun of that one reporter.

Hillary has screwed up much worse than that.  So wtf is up with all these attempts to warp our priorities?
