DURHAM, N.C. >> Newly confident and buoyant in the polls, Hillary Clinton is looking past Donald Trump while widening her mission to include helping Democrats seize the Senate and chip away at the Republican-controlled House.
Though Trump’s campaign insisted Sunday it was premature to count him out, it’s Clinton whose path to winning the White House has only grown wider in the race’s final weeks. Even longtime Republican strongholds such as Utah and Arizona suddenly appear within reach for Clinton on Nov. 8, enticing Democrats to campaign hard in territory they haven’t won for decades.
The shifting political map has freed up Clinton and her well-funded campaign to spend time and money helping other Democrats in competitive races. Clinton said she didn’t “even think about responding” to Trump anymore and would instead spend the final weeks on the road “emphasizing the importance of electing Democrats down the ballot.”
“We’re running a coordinated campaign, working hard with gubernatorial, Senate, and House candidates,” said Robby Mook, Clinton’s campaign manager.
And for good reason.
After a merciless two-year campaign, the next president will face the daunting task of governing a bitterly divided nation. If Clinton wins, her best prospect for achieving her goals will be greatly diminished unless her victory is accompanied by major Democratic gains in Congress.

“We’ve got to do the hard and maybe most important work of healing, healing our country,” Clinton said Sunday at Union Baptist Church in Durham.
For Democrats, there’s another reason to try to run up the score. With Trump warning he may contest the race’s outcome if he loses, Clinton’s campaign is hoping for an overwhelming Democratic victory that would undermine any attempt by Trump to claim the election had been stolen from him.
In a rare admission of fallibility by the typically boastful Trump, his campaign acknowledged he’s trailing Clinton as Election Day nears.
“We are behind. She has some advantages,” said Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway. Still, she added, “We’re not giving up. We know we can win this.”
Conway laid out in granular detail Trump’s potential path to winning: victories in Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Nevada and Ohio, to start. If Trump prevents Arizona and Georgia from falling to Democrats and adds in some combination of Colorado, Virginia, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, he could reach the 270 electoral votes needed, Conway said.
It won’t be easy. A current Associated Press analysis of polling, demographic trends and other campaign data rates Virginia as solidly Democratic, while Colorado, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania are all leaning Democratic. Arizona, remarkably, is a toss-up.
Trump was campaigning Sunday in Florida after spending the past few days in Pennsylvania and Ohio.
If Clinton wins, Democrats would need a net gain of four Senate seats to retake the majority. House control would be much harder, considering Republicans currently enjoy their largest House majority since 1931. Democrats would need a 30-seat gain, a feat they haven’t accomplished in roughly four decades.
Clinton’s nascent focus on helping fellow Democrats comes with an inherent contradiction. For months, she deliberately avoided the strategy employed by other Democrats of trying to saddle all Republicans with an unpopular Trump. In August, she said Trump represented the “radical fringe,” rather than the mainstream of the Republican Party.
Painting Trump as beyond the typical GOP pale was a strategy intended to help Clinton win over voters who identify as Republicans but dislike Trump. Yet it’s been a major sore point for Democratic campaign groups, illustrated by an internal Democratic National Committee email in May that was hacked and later disclosed by WikiLeaks.
“They don’t want us to tie Trump to other Republicans because they think it makes him look normal,” top DNC official Luis Miranda wrote in an email under the subject line “Problem with HFA,” an acronym for Hillary For America.
Andrea Bozek of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, the Senate GOP’s campaign arm, said Clinton’s last-minute push to aid Democrats was insufficient to make up for her party’s shortfalls in recruiting competitive candidates this year.
“Democrats have relied on political gravity from the presidential race to carry them across the finish line,” Bozek said.
Indeed, as Clinton campaigned in North Carolina, where Democrats hope to unseat GOP Sen. Richard Burr, Clinton’s argument appeared to rest on the hopes that voters offended by Trump would vote against Burr, too. She said Democratic candidate and American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Deborah Ross knows that Trump “is wrong for America.”
“Unlike her opponent, Debra has never been afraid to stand up to Donald Trump,” Clinton said.
Clinton isn’t the only Democrat putting a premium on down-ballot races.
President Barack Obama flew to Nevada on Sunday to campaign for the Democratic Senate candidate there before heading to San Diego to raise money for House Democrats. He and Vice President Joe Biden have recorded ads, raised money and campaigned in person for dozens of House, Senate and other Democratic candidates this year.
For Trump, the campaign’s finals weeks have been shadowed by concerns about his sexually predatory comments about women and mounting allegations of sexual assault. Trump used a weekend speech to announce he planned to sue all of the women, while one of his supporters, former Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, a Trump supporter, lamented his “oppression” by the media.
“He’s been waterboarded by these issues,” Brewer said.
Mook and Brewer spoke on CNN’s “State of the Union.” Conway spoke on “Fox News Sunday” and NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Thanks to all of you Trump supporters, it looks like the Senate is already lost for the Republicans. Now, it’s a matter of doing as much damage possible to the Republican majority in the House. Speaker Ryan has already been badly damaged by his disgraceful support of Mr. Trump, and the goal now is to erode his power even further.
Senator Schumer will be the next Senate Majority Leader. Good times!
IRT Klastri, “Counting chickens before they hatch” is a dangerous strategic political plan by the Clinton/Kaine campaign, don’t you believe. There are all kinds of bad things that happen when a Presidential campaign assumes a win.
Whatever you say.
You lost old man–period. Take a nap.
Hillary Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook appeared to grow flustered on Sunday as Fox News host Chris Wallace pressed him on Clinton’s solicitation of a $12 million donation from the King of Morocco to the Clinton Foundation.
This says it all.
Just the tip of the iceberg. A little bid more bad news everyday for the female felon. Death by a thousand cuts. Wiki wiki shivering and shaking HiLIARy back on the meds.
Are you actually delusional, or is this just an act?
HiLIARy got caught just like Nixon.How soon we forget. It is all very real.
This is all part of the deal that Trump made with Clinton before Don announced his run for president. With the election pretty much decided already, now it’s time to win back both the senate and the house for the Democrats. I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump gets paid off later by Hillary after all the hard work Donald has done to destroy the GOP from the top down.
Are you actually delusional.
Is Trump vs. Clinton a remake or change where things just remain the same? A remake is like McGyver, where the cast of characters and plots are essentially the same. Change by definition is to give a different position, course, or direction to something. Of course, everyone seems to feel that Clinton is more of the same. Trump’s minions argue that he represents change.
So, to make all the vicious rhetoric more bearable, let’s change gears for a second. For example, Star Trek’s future is a United Federation of Planets. Star Wars is a battle of forces, between good and evil. Minority Report is an attempt to have a better outcome and future, stop a crime before it becomes a reality.
If either campaign had a choice to base the rest of their campaigns on any movie theme of their choosing, what would it be? Optimistically, it might actually make voting in a couple of weeks fun, kind of like standing in line at your favorite theatre. So much so, that even a remake of their campaigns would be better than things remaining the same.
Great news….. we need the Senate.
White House – check.
US Senate — check.
US House Reps — Rs squeeze by and save their majority.
US Supreme Court Nominees — check. (Expect 3-4 new ones nominated by a D president)
Cricket crew choking on their prognostications and feeble predictions and desires – check–really long awkward silence.
She belongs in the big house not the white house.
More from the campaign of whiners.
The US debt…………….US can’t handle higher rates
yep, steal and spend carries a high cost to a society…
but the dems will continue to destroy the society they live in for the ‘greater goals’ their agenda seeks to achieve. California, Illinois are leading examples of the cost they will impose on folks, and yet, they will still claim that they care for the ones who’s lives they are destroying with their agenda…
Mississippi! Kentucky, Alabama etc…are these the poor and uneducated Red states you suggest we emulate???
She’s got brass testies standing in a church behind a cross. Her position and her party’s on the sanctity of life is despicable. The women standing behind her are members of a race that has been decimated by the eugenecists and butchers of Planned Parenthood. Too bad the major religions have been bought off by democrats throwing around taxpayer money. They limit their noise when so-called cafeteria Catholics like Tim Kaine run for office. Out of one side of his mouth he is pro-life, the other side says if it feels good do it.
CEI stands for constantly emulating ignorance.
Indeed. Too many fake degrees,,,
Tim Kainey is very spooky. Fake degree is nothing compared to a fake person. If you look closely you can actually see the puppet strings. He makes a sweet lap dog. Where did they find this guy. Thought McCain made a bad choice. Wow this takes the cake.
Yep, Kaine is pretty creepy. Probably not the kind of guy you’d leave your kids with for more than 5 minutes. She had the chance to pick someone of color or an LGBT type but picked this marionette instead. Scary indeed.
CEI – So let’s review your analysis of Senator Kaine. He was a very successful mayor, a successful governor and a popular senator.
That sounds creepy and scary to you? Got it!
Look for a blowout coming Trumps way.
The problem for Trump is that taken as a whole, his polls aren’t very good — and, in fact, they may still be getting worse. An ABC News national poll released on Sunday morning — the first live-caller poll conducted fully after the final presidential debate — showed Clinton leading Trump 50 percent to 38 percent. Clinton’s 12-point lead in that poll is toward the high end of a broad range of results from recent national polls, with surveys showing everything from a 15-point Clinton lead to a 2-point Trump edge. But the ABC News poll is interesting given its recency and given why Clinton has pulled so far ahead in it — Republicans aren’t very happy with their candidate and may not turn out to vote:
The previous ABC/Post poll found a sharp 12-point decline in enthusiasm for Trump among his supporters, almost exclusively among those who’d preferred a different GOP nominee. Intended participation now has followed: The share of registered Republicans who are likely to vote is down 7 points since mid-October.
But you can easily see how the worst-case scenario is firmly on the table for Trump and Republican down-ballot candidates, where the bottom falls out from GOP turnout. Consider:
Trump is getting only about 80 percent of the Republican vote, whereas candidates typically finish at about 90 percent of their party’s vote or above.
Furthermore, the Republicans missing from Trump’s column tend to be high-education, high-income voters, who typically also have a high propensity to vote.
Voters are increasingly convinced that Clinton will win the election, and turnout can be lower in lopsided elections. (Although, this presents risks to both candidates: complacency on the part of Democrats, despondency on the part of Republicans.)
Republicans and Trump have a substantial ground game deficit, with Clinton and Democrats holding a nearly 4-1 advantage in paid staffers.
Trump’s rhetoric that the election is rigged could discourage turnout among his own voters.
Trump’s base is relatively small, especially if he underperforms among college-educated Republicans.
The nightmare scenario for the GOP is that high-information Republican voters, seeing Trump imploding and not necessarily having been happy with him as their nominee in the first place, feel free to cast a protest vote at the top of the ticket. Meanwhile, lower-information Republican voters don’t turn out at all, given that Trump’s rigging rhetoric could suppress their vote and that Republicans don’t have the field operation to pull them back in. That’s how you could get a Clinton landslide like the one the ABC News poll describes, along with a Democratic Senate and possibly even — although it’s a reach — a Democratic House. 538
Buahahahah!!!!!
You don’t mind if we still go ahead with the election, do you?
I think that’s a great idea. The worldwide public humiliation should provide the kick to the head that Mr. Trump deserves.
Yes, we’ve already heard how you enjoy kicking those who are already down..
He went down because he tripped over his tongue.
hawaiikone – I do enjoy that. yes. When someone deserves it.
Mr. Trump deserves to be kicked. Over and over again. He constantly belittled this country – non stop for 16 months – with his racism, xenophobia, bigotry and manifestations of his other other personality disorders. Make America great again? When did it stop being great?
He deserves to be humiliated so that no one else rises to copy his tactics. Piling on can be a very powerful tool.
Item of interest for the truth seekers…”It’s one thing for the right-wing press to accuse the Clinton foundation of cronyism, corruption, and scandal (especially if the facts, and internal admissions by affiliated employees, confirm as much) – it tends to be generally ignored by the broader, if left-leaning, media. But when the Watergate scandal’s Bob Woodward, associate editor at the liberal Washington Post, says very much the same, Hillary Clinton’s campaign has no choice but to notice. This is precisely what happened today when journalist Bob Woodward told a Fox News Sunday panel that the Clinton Foundation is “corrupt” and that Hillary Clinton has not answered for it.
Here, courtesy of RealClearPolitics, is the transcript of today’s exchange:
CHRIS WALLACE, FOX NEWS SUNDAY: Then there are the allegations about the Clinton Foundation and pay to play, which I asked Secretary Clinton about in the debate, and she turned into an attack on the Trump Foundation.
But, Bob, I want to go back to the conversation I was having with Robby Mook before. When — when you see what seems to be clear evidence that Clinton Foundation donors were being treated differently than non-donors in terms of access, when you see this new — new revelations about the $12 million deal between Hillary Clinton, the foundation, and the king of Morocco, are voters right to be troubled by this?
x
BOB WOODWARD, THE WASHINGTON POST: I — yes, it’s a — it’s corrupt. It’s — it’s a scandal. And she didn’t answer your question at all. And she turned to embrace the good work that the Clinton Foundation has done. And she has a case there. But the mixing of speech fees, the Clinton Foundation, and actions by the State Department, which she ran, are all intertwined and it’s corrupt. You know, I mean, you can’t just say it’s unsavory. But there’s no formal investigation going on now, and there are outs that they have.
But the election isn’t going to be decided on that. I mean Karl was making the point about this, I’m not going to observe the result of the election. I mean that’s — that’s absurd. I mean it has no consequence. If Trump loses, they’re not going to let him in the White House. He’s not going to have a transition team. And — and to focus on that, I think, is wrong. I think the issue is, what’s going to be the aftermath of this campaign.
So it’s corrupt, it’s a scandal, and… it will have no consequences at all. It’s time to look up the latest definition of Banana republic again.”
Sarge say whatever you want but the fact is that the fat lady has sung and the Democrats will be in the a White House for the next four years. Read this and weep. You need more Kleenex?
Remember the Watergate scandal and Bob Woodward? How did that turn out for Tricky Dick? It ain’t over til it’s over. Check back later.
klas, your call. I’d never support ganging up on anyone, especially after they’re down. I’ve been dropped more than once, and I’ve dropped a few, but that ended it.
keau, you’re not even in the discussion..
IRT Ike, okay, you must be concerned that ABC contracted a 3rd party polling company to begin their daily tracking poll and the methodology is new and different. You must have looked at their data and saw that the polling company used 6.5% more democrats over republicans. The 6.5% can reduce Ms Hillary’s 50% to 43.5% and increase Mr. Trumps 38% to 44.5%, making it similar to three other polls released today. Go check it out.
Do you write things like this to make folks feel sorry for you?
That’s not how the math works. Might help to get your old Statistics 101 textbook out.
You might consider reading Nate Silver’s website updates.
Omg, you actually have an incredibly bad grasp of statistics and how the math would practically work.
IRT Ike, check out data and method of poll, 1391 contacts, 874 likely voters; 34% Democrat, 27% Republican, and 49% Independent. White 75%, Black 12%, Hispanic 5%, and Asian 2%. More …..
kuroiwaj – Let’s go back to the third grade for just a moment, shall we?
34% + 27% + 49% = 110%
Do you see the flaw in your arithmetic?
IRT Klastri, excellent. You did add the numbers and did you go review the method and data from Langer? Pls do.
Investor’s Business Daily poll has Trump up by 2 points. With more Wikileaks coming out this week that should jump to 4 or 5 points. Waldo is counting her chickens before they hatch. Trump’s Lincolnesque Gettysburg speech on Saturday laid out his plan to fix Barry Hussein’s carnage in clear and concise language. My advice to democrats is to book your therapy session now and avoid the rush.
Denial of reality is the first symptom that one is in need of therapy. Desperately in need. As far as his Gettysburg speech. If the idi-t didn’t drift off the subject and start threatening to sue the victims of his sexual assaults it might have been graded as a D- vs the F that he ended up with. Wake up! He is struggling because he is the problem and all you hangers on are going down with him.
Also it’s eggs. Chickens have already hatched. Confusion is also a sign of anxiety and stress. Quit so I don’t have to embarass you anymore.
Not so fast. ‘Tis you who are confused. “don’t count your chickens before they hatch” is the proper form.
I am not confused your either counting chickens or eggs. I know what the saying says but an intelligent person would agree. Of course it’s been agreed that the Chumps largest support group is UNDEREDUCATED white males and that explains it all.
Okay, okay. Don’t get your pretty pink panties in a wad. I apologize for being an under-educated white male. If I were a college grad of color I would surely see the enormous benefit in electing Waldo. Since I am neither, I’m forced to vote for The Donald.
Do what you have to do but l sincerely hope that you are a single undereducated white male. If you aren’t then my prayers are with your family. It’s ok if you go down the toilet but I feel sorry for your children.The filth that is spewed from the idi-ts mouth will only promote another generation of hate and prejudice.
One more thing is that you are so much like the Chump. Your comment about the pink panties tells me that you assume that I am a female. I am a heterosexual male who finds it very interesting that you are so quick to submit when your intelligence is questioned. I give you credit because at the least you admit to your fallacies. With supporters like you the election to me is over and a done deal. Congratulations President Clinton.
Just because you’re a heterosexual male doesn’t mean you can’t or don’t wear pink panties. Why, some of my best male friends proudly wear pretty pink panties year round. Personally, I prefer to keep my underclothes preference classified.
Anyway, I thought it would break up the monotony of the whole “my guy is better that your guy” thing with a little harmless locker room humor.
I know there have to be one or two progressives out there who haven’t completely lost their sense of humor.
CEI – Yes, of course. President Lincoln always began his speeches by reading through a list of people who wronged him (and the women he sexually assaulted) and how he was going to sue them. Then, Mr. Lincoln would regale the crowd with tales of his greatness, and that he (and only he) could save America.
Looks like you received that PHD for Lincoln studies!
Yep, “Four score and seven years ago, a bunch of 5’s falsely accused me”
And, “Speak softly and carry a big box of TicTacs”
Not to forget, “We have nothing to fear, but getting our genitals groped itself!”
Yeah, Trump fits in with the great speakers of our great country. Next stop, Mount Rushmore. The Mount Rushmore of Stoopid!!!
Donald who?
Instead of a poll, let’s start today’s Election Update with some actual votes. According to the estimable Nevada journalist Jon Ralston, Democrats have a 20-percentage-point turnout edge so far based on early and absentee voting in Clark County (home to Las Vegas), Nevada. And they have a 10-point edge in Washoe County (home to Reno).
Nevada is one of a number of states where Democrats usually do better in early voting than in the vote overall, so this shouldn’t be taken to mean that Hillary Clinton and the Democratic U.S. Senate candidate in Nevada, Catherine Cortez Masto, are going to win their races by double digits. But Nevada is an interesting state, insofar as both Clinton and Donald Trump can find things to like about its demographic makeup: In Clinton’s case, the growing number of Hispanic and Asian-American voters bodes well for her; in Trump’s case, there’s the fact that only about one-third of Nevada’s white voters have college degrees, according to FiveThirtyEight’s estimates. Furthermore, Nevada has shown tight polling all year, with Clinton having only pulled ahead since the debates — surprising given that President Obama won Nevada by 7 percentage points in 2012 and that Clinton is beating Obama’s numbers in other Western states.
Wonder at how reservations at Trump’s Casino is going?
With two weeks to go, Donald Trump’s path to an Election Night win is almost entirely closed.
Hillary Clinton enters the final 15 days of the race safely ahead in states worth more than 270 electoral votes. Indeed, the suspense of this final stretch is less about whether Trump can turn it around than how many down-ballot Republicans he will drag down with him.
“Trump is done,” said Republican operative Jim Dornan, who advised the New York businessman in the preparatory stages of his campaign last year. “Barring something completely out of the blue, like Hillary being involved in a murder, I don’t see how he wins.”
Short of that, or some sort of Putin Ex Machina, there is little Trump can do to put himself back into contention after five-and-half-months of missteps and missed opportunities.
“The race is over,” said conservative Iowa radio host Steve Deace, who backed Ted Cruz in the primary. “There is nothing Trump can do. He helped the Democrats convince people he’s crazy, and they’ll always choose corrupt over crazy.”
“Trump cucked himself,” Deace added, throwing an alt-right term of derision for soft conservatives back onto the Rs.
No presidential candidate since the advent of modern polling has overcome the sort of deficits Trump faces nationally — where he trails Clinton by an average of 5.9 points — and in swing states with two weeks to go in an election. In Utah, among the most reliably Republican states in any other cycle, Trump is locked in a tight race with independent Evan McMullin, a conservative Mormon.
With debate season over and the clock running out for significant swings in public opinion to materialize, the baton now goes to the get-out-the-vote operations, where Clinton enjoys an overwhelming advantage.
On Sunday, with early voting numbers in Arizona showing encouraging signs for Clinton, the Associated Press moved the state, which has voted for a Democrat only once since 1948, into its “toss-up” column. The AP currently counts 272 electoral votes, enough to win the presidency, as solidly in Clinton’s column or leaning that way.
In Florida, Republicans’ narrow advantage in mail-in early voting has shrunk slightly from 2012 and in North Carolina that advantage has shrunk dramatically from 2012, according to the latest analysis from NBC News. In Ohio, Trump has been unable to win the support of popular Republican governor John Kasich and his campaign has feuded with state party chairman Matt Borges, portending a weak mobilization effort. In general, Trump has failed to invest seriously in a competitive ground game and instead relied on the Republican National Committee.
The biggest risk the Clinton campaign now faces is prematurely resting on its laurels. But South Carolina Democratic Party Chairman Jaime Harrison said his conversations with party leaders across the country have assured him that they are not taking the outcome for granted.
“Everybody’s busting their butts right now,” said Harrison, a leading contender to succeed Donna Brazile at the helm of the Democratic National Committee. “Nobody’s thinking, ‘Oh, we’ve got this in the bag.’”
In this regard, Trump has proven to be the gift that keeps on giving to Democrats. The New York businessman’s base has led the field in enthusiasm since he entered the race last summer, but his refusal to pledge to accept the voting results and his remark that Clinton is a “nasty woman” at Wednesday night’s debate have delivered Clinton’s supporters a burst of enthusiasm as they enter the home stretch.
“I see a lot more people saying, ‘I was going to vote for Hillary but now I’m upset and now I’m going to go knock doors,’ so I think it’s really served to galvanize the get-out-the-vote operation for the last few weeks,” said Tyler Olson, former chairman of the Democratic Party of Iowa, the swing state Trump is most likely to win.
On the trail, Trump appears to have largely given up on persuading voters in favor of settling scores. On Friday in North Carolina, he swiped at First Lady Michelle Obama, who has criticized him in harsh terms and is roughly twice as popular as he is.
He has also begun blaming the failures of his campaign on a globalist conspiracy of bankers and journalists in cahoots with the Clintons, claiming that the presidential election is “rigged” against him. Asked by moderator Chris Wallace at Wednesday’s debate whether he would accept the results, Trump said he would keep the country “in suspense.”
Such talk has leaders of both parties worried about the long-term damage he could to the public’s faith in the integrity of the election system if he fails to graciously accept the outcome.
Harrison said Trump was playing a “very dangerous game” and pointed to the statements of Republican leaders like his South Carolina counterpart Matt Moore. “The vast majority of battleground states have Republicans overseeing their election systems,” Moore told POLITICO last week. “It’s safe to assume they’re not rigging the process either against Donald Trump or for anyone else.”
Meanwhile, Trump’s downward spiral has forced House Republicans to scramble to secure their once-safe majority and the difficult balancing act between Trump’s diehard supporters and moderate independents has begun to take its toll on vulnerable Senate candidates like New Hampshire’s Kelly Ayotte. She trailed by 8 points in a poll released on Thursday, after polls earlier this month showed a dead heat.
For the party that put Trump forward, the race has become less of a suspenseful thriller and more, to use a favorite Trump term, of a “horror show.”
“Republicans,” said Harrison, “are really scared.”
Really SCARED!!
Buahahahah!!!!

Although the actual polls remain somewhat ambiguous, it now appears that Hillary Clinton is on her way to a huge victory, one that will also give her party very significant gains down ballot. Certainly the Democrats will capture the Senate and conceivably the House.

Nate suggested that Trump has failed so completely that Rs would stay home in large numbers, leading to devastation down ballot for them.
Let’s hope!
As Hillary says, “Sometimes my public face is different than my private face.” The end justifies the means, no matter how corrupt. I find it amazing that people will vote for her – her corruption seems to know no ends.
Then you’ll probably be even more amazed when she wins by a huge landslide.
Things are a lot better then we think they are.
