Hillary could lose FL, Iowa, NV, NC, and OH -- AND STILL WIN the election.

That's how bad things are for Trump.

(But of course she won't.)

AND WE NEED A LANDSLIDE TO SWEEP IN A NEW CONGRESS!

Clinton leads Donald Trump by 5 points or greater in POLITICO’s Battleground States polling average in Colorado, Michigan, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin. If the Democratic nominee won those six states, plus all the other reliably Democratic states President Barack Obama captured in both 2008 and 2012, she would eclipse the 270-electoral-vote threshold and win the presidency.

Even if Trump ran the table in the remaining battleground states — Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio — he would fall short of the White House if he cannot flip another state where Clinton currently leads in the polls.

I know how you committed you are the making Sec. Clinton our next president so I know you want to run the table too - so let's go out there and humiliate Trump and his republican cronies at every level.
