CNBC/Hart Research (NBC/WSJ) National: Clinton +9

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

the volatility is mad and influencing my trust in the average.

Its really not that volatile. Everything outside of **** trackers are within a reasonable range.

It says this is a doubling of Clinton's lead since the last poll, does anyone know what those results where?

The last poll was in June.

On one hand, i find it odd that there's so much variation of national numbers. On the other hand, I recognize that it is entirely Trump varying from 40% to 45%, while Clinton's variations are between 49-53%.

There's always variation though. I kind of wonder what Atlas's reaction was to the polls on the eve of the election showing McCain only down 2 nationally and down 3 in Minnesota. Was the forum full of bedwetters, concern trolls, and doom prophecies then too?

Yes, but not QUITE as bad.

I was not a member of Atlas back then but there was persistent buzz about a whitey tape in which Michelle Obama makes racially charged statements against white people. That was supposed to be the October surprise but it never materialised.

Only the MOST delusional GOPhers believed the Whitey tape existed.
