So should Putin be allowed to steamroll all the former Soviet countries because I'm sure that is his plan.
The Republicans have gone too far right for the right. They'll need to reform after this.
There is actually quite a lot of joy to be found in the notion of Republicans having to endure two terms of America's first black president followed by at least one term of America's first female president (whose surname is Clinton).
A careful alignment to central right would help them regain the social-liberal but otherwise conservative bloc.

No details whatsoever about what Trump actually means by "rigged".

I think this is going to be closer than people think.

Palin on the McCain ticket puts them close to the bottom with Trump and Wallace.
Any sources?
Yeah, they need to move toward the centre if they want to retain any relevance. As of now they're just way out on the right. They're losing moderates as a result.
She look exhausted from spouting the same bullshit fifty times a day and then have it blown back in her face at 4am by the dirty groper.
Hmm, Crimea.
On the CNN poll.....
Any invasion of a NATO country will be met with war. Not willing to chance Trump in the White House, but I doubt that even him would be foolish to ignore the blatant invasion of an ally, against the cries of every prominent official.
I have an issue with Hillary's hawkishness, and her annoying level of affection for Israel. I see boots on the ground in our future if Hillary is president, but still, she's the safer bet.
So no, then?
I highly recommend watching a film/documentary called "HyperNormalisation" that's very relevant to this election (and many other things besides). It's available on the BBC iPlayer: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p04b183c/adam-curtis-hypernormalisation
"Our world is strange and often fake and corrupt. But we think it’s normal because we can’t see anything else. HyperNormalisation - the story of how we got here."

Can't wait for his memoirs.
NATO - who I believe more than the Kremlin - reported multiple breaches of Baltic sea and other territories by Russians. Likewise, I don't believe for a second that Russia haven't send soldiers and equipment to Crimea and Eastern Ukraine since it is documented, most notably relatives of dead soldiers shut down when the dared to speak up, subsequently Kremlin passed a bill to silence anybody speaking about things like it.
Putin will without any doubt take Ukraine, and I doubt his appetite stops there. #makeRussiagreatagain
The problem with believing NATO is that NATO's expansionist policies (mainly into the Russian sphere of influence) is more or less the entire reason Russia annexed the Crimea.
This should probably go in CE chat. Going off topic.

Who would've thought the 3rd debate would be the best ?
Noooo don't say that, there isn't a hope in hell I'll be able to watch it now I'm back working
Don't worry, we've already had 3 debates

I'm surprised Murdoch didn't find a way to make it pay-per-view.
That's Russia's lame excuse which I don't buy. The mere fact UdSSR fell apart, i.e. Ukraine separating, was a big blow for Putin and his alikes who never really accepted the independence.
Their LV screen actually benefited Clinton in OH. Adjusted for house effect and it's a toss up race, pretty consistent with what we've seen thus far in the Midwest. Early voting in Dem strongholds like Cuyahoga and Franklin is down as well (-18/-31% compared to 2012).
I think what we are seeing is a realignment of the map, accelerated by the God Emperor. Dems future lay in Southern states with high minorities population as well as hubs of college educated whites and the usual West Coast/ New England states. GOP on the other hand take all of Middle America with their aging, less educated and whiter population. Drumpf is running about ten points worse than Mittens in the South and that's where a lot of Clinton's votes are coming from.
A YouGov of Georgia has Clinton up by 3 as well.
That's their wacky 50-states poll, no?

MIND BOGGLING.
41% of voters or 41% of Drumpf voters?
Oh is it? My bad, those are usually a bit dodge.
I wouldn't be too surprised if 100% of his voters think it's rigged, the idiots.
Very true.
Other than Arizona, I don't think Clinton should waste any resources on the other red states: Georgia, Alaska, Texas or Utah. It will be difficult winning any of them, and there's no benefit on doing so* other than for the headlines. She should spend any extra resources on helping the down ticket.
* unless the senate/House race in any of these four states is close as well. I'm not following the congressional elections.

If you can challenge in Arizona, you've got a good chance in Georgia, and it's worth almost as many electoral votes as Ohio. She's raising $150m a month compared to his $100m (not including super pacs), so they can afford to spread their resources.
Just for you Assange fans....
They should wait til he's asleep and move his bed out onto the pavement (sidewalk for our American friends).
I thought the polls were rigged?
Trump hasn't lead a poll in Florida by more than 1 in over a month.
We will see as more data come in, but at this point the GOP is already running short about 10-12k on mail in ballots.
