(4,205 posts)Are making the mistake of underestimating the dislike that exists in this entire process and the nominees that came out of it...half the people I have heard lately are not even going to vote they hate both candidates and just don't really care which one wins..

(15,124 posts)Thanks for all the help "healing" the party.
Old Codger
(4,205 posts)Going to think that it is going to be "healed" this time around...Don't delude yourself...Not gonna happen... Last time around there was what seemed to be a reason to heal it and go on, this time around they have shown us beyond a doubt that we do not count..

If this crap is still what must be waded through in order to participate here I wish they'd change the name to "Whatever" and get it over with.

(3,072 posts)Occasionally, you will see several polls all moving slightly in one direction, apropo of nothing. It happens in every election and if no specific event seems to be identifiable, its probably just noise.
Look at a chart of the 2008 polls
You will see on June 26, 2008, Obama was ahead by about 6.5 points in the averages. By July 11th, he was down to a 4 point lead, before shooting back up to a 6 point lead a week later. If you go back and read the news from that 3 week period, you will see that jack shit happened during that time. Obama slipped down for a week or two and then jumped back up, for no reason. Its just noise in the polls.
Has Clinton's national lead fell slightly in the last week? Maybe from about 7 in the averages to just over 6 points. Is there anything we can point to that has happened in the last week that would significantly alter the trajectory of the election? I can't. Probably just meaningless fluctuations, perhaps from people focusing more on their 4th of July plans and less on politics.
