There's been a trickle of iffy polls for Clinton today.  Maybe it's just a blip, but we have the Rasmussen with Trump ahead, Marist putting Trump up in Ohio, Clinton only up 3 in Emerson's Virginia poll... maybe it's nothing, but has she gotten all the bump from Access Hollywood as she's going to get?

Oh good lord...

Emerson and Rasmussen are pure trash.

The Marist poll had even party I.D.

Hillary is in great shape.

Didn't recognize the name at first. When I found out it was Beet it gave me a good laugh.

Yep, she is stalling. I'm afraid she will win by only 8-10 points.

I knew that Ohio poll would cause bedwetting.

I'm not worried yet. Will be if the media narrative starts to change.

Trump's debate performance on Sunday night solidified his base.  He got his wavering Republicans and whites back, not much more.  I think Hillary wins NC and narrowly pulls out OH and probably lose IA.

Possibly, but it's way too early to tell. She was doing great today on 538 until the latest poll dump.

Which I don't get, other than the Ohio poll and that stupid Emerson Virgina poll.

A lot of people just think that Clinton has trouble maintaining momentum or that if Trump got this far...

Her momentum hasn't stalled, some of us just expected more of a post-tape swing in Hillary's favor and when we don't see those 15-point swings we start to think the worst.  But the polls numbers this week have been very encouraging.

I think it's a case of Atlas overstating her position.

That Ohio poll is a bit worrying, but in reality she doesn't need Ohio for 270. As for Virginia, Emerson have been terrible this cycle, so I won't fret until we see a normal poll with it close.

I'm Beef, not Beet.  User 69, he's user 20.  He's been here a good three weeks longer than me.

Anyway, I'm not worried she'll lose, just wondering if the Access Hollywood tapes weren't as damaging as we expected.

I want the death spiral, and I want it now.

This is where I am. I can't be worried when I'm seeing 10 point leads in Pennsylvania and Michigan and 5 point leads in Florida and North Carolina, but there is always the possibility the news outlets decide the election isn't close enough and spend more time promoting the Russian propaganda from Wikileaks.

Most of the concern is with the EV, though. No one thinks Trump can win the PV.

In the larger scheme of things, in the larger view, it doesn't matter what daily ups and downs occur.

Look at the entire campaign from the beginning. Hillary has been consistently ahead.

And lately with Trump's campaign imploding from all the scandals, it's simply a downhill slide for him from now, on.

I don't pay attention to rearclearpolitics...isn't that an average of PV polls though?

OK ... IF Hillary is winning the national PV by more than 3-4 then she's going to win the EV.
