Latest polls indicate that the Lone Star State, Texas, with the second highest number of electoral votes, 38, could go for Hillary Clinton this year, tipping that state “Blue” four to eight years before it was expected to tilt, based on growth of Hispanic and Latino voting population.
Donald Trump is ahead only by three points, while Mitt Romney won Texas in 2012 by 16 points, so this is certainly a possibility that Hillary Clinton will win Texas this year.
IF she does, she will have a total electoral landslide, with over 400 electoral votes.
North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Utah, all “Red” states, are seen as likely to go to the Democrats, but Texas? Unbelievable!
If this happens, then it is possible that the House of Representatives majority will be in play, and the Senate looks much more likely to go to the Democrats, as we near Election Day in 20 days, but with many voters already having participated by mail or in early in person voting.
When and if Texas goes Democratic, the Republican Party is doomed for the long term, and will never win the White House again, until and unless they reorganize and change their attitudes and policies, including on immigration matters!
So much for freedom of the press. Liberty student censored for anti-Trump article. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/10/18/jerry-falwell-axes-anti-trump-story-from-liberty-university-s-student-newspaper.html
I think that Liberty University student should grab Jerry Falwell’s by his pusillanimity …. ; )
Disgraceful, Former Republican, and I agree with you, Paul!
NO ONE should attend Liberty University, as it is a total farce of an education!
Once again, Trump’s debate performance sucked.

In addition to claiming the election is rigged, Trump is claiming the debate was rigged. http://www.politicususa.com/2016/10/20/trump-claims-fox-newss-chris-wallace-rigged-debate-hillary-clinton.html

Bloomberg poll shows that, if Hillary wins, GOP voters prefer Mike Pence/Donald Trump/Ted Cruz as the face of the party nationally over Paul Ryan/John Kasich.
They feel that Trump is more representative of their views than Paul Ryan.
The poll also shows that, if Trump wins, Democrats prefer Hillary/Bernie/Elizabeth Warren as the face of the party nationally over Kaine/O’Malley.
