Last Sunday, the ABC/Washington Post poll was big news - Hillary up 12.
Today, her lead is only two.
At that pace, Trump will be running away with things November 8.
Or the first poll with a 12-point lead was lousy bad.

Great eight
This blog has made it to eight years.
It's been a scary eight years.
And who knows what lies ahead.
But we stand strong and move on.

If I could turn back time
Megan McArdle looks at the difficulty looming next year - if Democrats want to "tweak" Obamacare.
And this is true of every idea that starts with “All we need to do.” If “All we need to do” to fix some substantial problem were cheap and politically popular, it would already have been done, and we wouldn’t be talking about it. The stuff we argue about is, almost by definition, the stuff that’s hard.
Needless to say, Republicans are not going to be eager to do something hard and unpopular largely in order to save a program that was passed over their strenuous objections and is now hurting their political opponents. So if all we need to do is persuade Republicans to abandon their objections to Obamacare, and possibly their own electoral futures, in order to bail Democrats out of the mess they created, then we’re all going to be living with these problems for a very long time.

Are you sure about this?
Maybe Hillary Clinton appearing to have a big lead two weeks before Election Day was a good thing.
With most of the attention on Trump the entire year, people have had a chance to focus on what would happen in a Hillary presidency?
It reminds me of the computer warning you used to get when planning to delete something.

And Friday's email news helps those thinking about what lies ahead.
It's not something new.
But it gives an easy way to comprehend what concerns you about the candidate.
Just like the Billy Bush video did to Trump.
Eleven days to go.
Plenty of time to think about making the right decision.

Fighting the Hillbullies
Scott Adams has enticed Hillary Clinton supporters to go crazy.
Just by noticing how quiet terrorists have been lately.
I engineered the offending tweet to make the point that ISIS appears to prefer a Clinton presidency. That puts Clinton’s supporters on the same side as ISIS, at least in the narrow sense that they might prefer the same candidate. That creates a conflict between Clinton supporters’ self-image as good people and the uncomfortable reality that they might prefer the same candidate as ISIS. If my point is credible, the predicted result is that it would induce cognitive dissonance and a literal hallucination.
And it did.
And he wants you to join the fun.
Watch the ongoing Twitter battle at @ScottAdamsSays as I trigger the #Hillbullies to annihilate their moral authority by acting on their cognitive dissonance and coming after me in full-bully force. It is good entertainment.

Something to talk about
Glenn Reynolds gives us some important things to talk about instead of Donald Trump's past behavior.
Corruption, unaffordable healthcare, a burgeoning national debt: These are all things that will have serious consequences for Americans for decades, to come. In a healthier society, our election would turn on these issues. But we do not live in such a society. And that suits politicians, and their supporters in the press, just fine.

Stand up for Trump
Scott Adams returns to the Trump fold - after watching Hillary supporters in action.
The Clinton message is that some Americans are good people and the other 40% are some form of deplorables, deserving of shame, vandalism, punishing taxation, and violence. She has literally turned Americans on each other. It is hard for me to imagine a worse thing for a presidential candidate to do.

Seeking Negan's mandate
The Wall Street Journal looks to 2017 and whether the winner gets a mandate.
Hillary's mandate appears to be she's not Donald Trump.
Trump's mandate appears to be straight and not crooked.
We all fear they want Negan's mandate from The Walking Dead - rule by fear and smash those who disagree.

Not what it's cracked up to be
Several sites have posted Cracked's story on why there are so many Trump voters in rural areas.
It's how different the world looks there compared to the cities where elites live.
Blacks riot, Muslims set bombs, gays spread AIDS, Mexican cartels behead children, atheists tear down Christmas trees. Meanwhile, those liberal Lena Dunhams in their $5,000-a-month apartments sip wine and say, "But those white Christians are the real problem!" Terror victims scream in the street next to their own severed limbs, and the response from the elites is to cry about how men should be allowed to use women's restrooms and how it's cruel to keep chickens in cages.

Undefeated teams watch
The last undefeated team of the 2016 NFL team suffered its first loss today - Minnesota losing to Philadelphia.
Once again, the 1972 Miami Dolphins stand alone as the only undefeated team of the Super Bowl era.
Once again, the 1972 Miami Dolphins stand alone as the only undefeated team of the Super Bowl era.
Issues? Issues? Issues?
What's the theme of media coverage this election?
"Why does Donald Trump talk about things that step on his message."
Then
"Let's talk about things other than his message."
It's more fun to talk about bad behavior around women.
The issues about government will remain.
The debt keeps growing.
The media had its chance.
And will spend the next year wondering why the media is held in low esteem.

They will be having busy weekends.

Agenda for 2017
Whether or not Donald Trump wins the election, Saturday's speech put out an agenda that will have to be considered in 2017.
It's another Gettysburg Address we will remember.

Rigged before the voting booth
The media has gone crazy over Donald Trump thinking the election is rigged.
How can millions of votes be rigged to go to Hillary Clinton?
That's not the way this election is rigged.
It's been rigged since way before the voting started.
In how the issues are presented.
Have we talked about the deficit any this fall?
It's rigged in how the current administration and its staff has kept Clinton from facing trouble.
Sadly, we have a central government without independent newspapers. Not a single one of the majors has the intestinal fortitude to stand up to Hillary Clinton, who co-opted their reporters. Indeed, the newspaper owners and executives have invested millions in her election.
Newspapers push the global warming nonsense, which is a cover for pouring billions into the pockets of billionaires including Elon Musk, George P. Kaiser (Solyndra), and T. Boone Pickens. The reporters pushing this are smug idiots. These social justice warriors with a J-degree naively bloviate against the Big Oil companies, while unwittingly providing cover for real crooks to empty the treasury.
That rigging must be addressed - for Republicans to have any future chances.

Thought for before the debate
Scott Adams gets ready for the third and final presidential debate with his closing argument.
Trump represents what is likely to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring real change to a government that is bloated and self-serving. Reasonable people can disagree on policies and priorities. But Trump is the bigger agent for change, if that’s what you think the country needs. I want voters to see that choice for what it is.

The case for and against
Daily Pundit sums up the race with three weeks to go.
* One Candidate is an unindicted career political criminal with a verifiable record of political and personal corruption and illicit activity stretching back more than a decade before her ascendance to her first major political position by virtue of marriage of convenience to an even more charismatic and electable political criminal.
The other Candidate is a multi-decades long figure who’s been in the world wide media and public scrutiny for longer than some hostile media figures have been out of diapers about whom the worst that has been dug up and exposed is that he’s filed for bankruptcy a couple of times and that he once said “pussy” in a taped conversation. Oh, and he has tiny, vulgar hands, too. So there.
There's more where that came from, pussycat.

Keeping your head off the platter
The Blaze let a contributor offer a curious take on the beheading of John the Baptist, as told in Mark 6.
He's trying to link NeverTrump crew with John, telling how they stand up to the power of Trump.
Except, is Trump the power you need to worry about?
Evangelicals who support Trump worry more about the power of a Hillary Clinton presidency - and see their heads being put on a platter.
John the Baptist wasn't killed by Herod for what he said - Herod got tricked.
21 Finally the opportune time came. On his birthday Herod gave a banquet for his high officials and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee. 22 When the daughter of[d] Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests.
The king said to the girl, “Ask me for anything you want, and I’ll give it to you.” 23 And he promised her with an oath, “Whatever you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom.”
24 She went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask for?”
“The head of John the Baptist,” she answered.
25 At once the girl hurried in to the king with the request: “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
26 The king was greatly distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he did not want to refuse her. 27 So he immediately sent an executioner with orders to bring John’s head.
It's much easier to see Hillary's crew attacking Christians on a whim than Trump - the broken vessel that he may be - leading us astray.

See no evil
John Kass explains the media's views of Hillary Clinton.
The presidential campaign is now centered below the American belt, where Hillary Clinton desperately needed it to go.
It is all about using Donald Trump's history of alleged sexual aggression to destroy him with women voters.
And this is necessary for Clinton, because it distracts media attention away from hacked and Wikileaked emails that would otherwise damage her campaign.
