Just a couple of observations on this Quinnipiac University poll today. I continue to have real issues with the way that Q does its polling, particularly in Florida. But here’s easier argument why you should take ALL of their numbers in Florida with a grain of salt: they were wildly inaccurate throughout the 2012 cycle, […]

If the latest Quinnipiac poll is to be believed, Donald Trump has jumped in front of Hillary Clinton in Florida. The Q now has Trump ahead 42-39 over Clinton, and that’s just head to head. Throw in Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and Jill Stein of the Green Party and the Donald goes up by five […]

Running out of options to voice displeasure with presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, some delegates who oppose him have flirted with a movement to try to upend next week’s GOP convention in Cleveland. Others simply won’t go. Among those who gave up their seats is Rhode Island delegate Dawson Hodgson, a former state senator […]

Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton 42-39 percent in Florida in a new poll published by Quinnipiac University. That’s a major shift from a similar survey three weeks ago, which had Clinton up by eight percentage points, 47-40 percent. Trump’s lead increases when you add in Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and the Green Party’s Jill Stein. Trump leads Clinton 41-36 percent, with […]

Jeb Bush says whatever you want to call Donald Trump, don’t call him a conservative. “Conservatism is temporarily dead,” the former Florida governor told Nicolle Wallace on an MSNBC special that aired Monday night. “I mean, if you look at it, we have two candidates. Donald Trump is barely a Republican. He’s certainly not a […]

While there should be smiles in Portsmouth, New Hampshire later today when Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have their unity rally, some things to contemplate about Clinton, a week after the FBI announced they will not indict her in the investigation of her email server while serving as secretary of state. A majority of Americans […]

Presidential battleground states were supposed to be swarming with Republican Party workers by now. “We’ve moved on to thousands and thousands of employees,” party chairman Reince Priebus declared in March, contrasting that with the GOP’s late-blooming staffing four years earlier. “We are covering districts across this country in ways that we’ve never had before.” That […]

The Sweet Meteor of Death is not going to upstage this election season. That’s according to the NASA Near Earth Object Program that tracks roughly 15,000 asteroids, comets and gigantic pieces of space rock that pose any kind of threat to the Earth. That may be bad news for 13 percent of American registered voters, who told […]

Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton in Florida, 47 percent to 45 percent, with 8 percent undecided, in a new OnMessage poll released Monday. The group is tied to Rick Scott’s PAC, “Let’s Get to Work,” and appears to skew more conservative than similar polls. Both candidates are underwater in terms of their personal approval ratings, […]

For almost 40 years, “Inside the NFL” has been able to capture the attention of football fans despite airing several days after the action on the field has occurred. While the basic elements of the show are the same as any other sports recap show, featuring highlights of the week’s games and discussion of events around the league, the […]
