Where, oh where have all the liberals gone?  RR readers notice the recent absence of the Left from these comment streams, and they themselves are to blame.  Our leftwing neighbors do realize that RR has been and continues as the most welcoming and open opinion forum in these parts.  But every time they come to disseminate the best that their progressive side has to offer, it is quickly reduced to such a rubble (to capitalize on the term of art du jour) that they are left without a reasonable leg to underpin them.  And since both sides here are in the business of addressing the independent, the undeclared, the mid-roaders, they see the flaying of their ideas and arguments as a definite liability overall, and especially amplified in the weeks running up to the election.  Were their assessment otherwise – i.e. that their countered arguments had staying power – they would double down knowing in their heart that the intended audience would see through the weakness of the Right.  And the more such a dialogue could be continued, the better.  But, sadly for them, that is not the case.

In the meantime, can an elected candidate, supported by the Secret Service on the way to their gala swearing in ceremony overlooking Washington's impressive mall, be impeached for lying to the voters about their ability to discharge the duties of their just assumed office?

    Let me repeat the theme of my 11:41… if Bill Evers is Trump’s Education guru, the crazy way math is taught in Phil Daro/NCTM/Common Core classrooms will be on the way out.

    Sac Bee: Even in California, Hillary Clinton has slipped.
    Though Clinton is still running 17 percentage points ahead of Donald Trump in this heavily Democratic state, her advantage has fallen 7 percentage points from July, according to a new survey by the Field Poll and UC Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies.
    Meanwhile, Clinton’s image rating has dropped sharply, with a majority of likely voters in California – 53 percent – now viewing her unfavorably, according to the poll.

    According to Wikileaks documents Hillary Clinton had her State Department staff researching the effects of Modafinil
    Details here: http://www.thepoliticalinsider.com/wikileaks-just-dropped-bombshell-hillarys-health-truth-revealed/
    Modafinil for the Treatment of Daytime Sleepiness in Parkinson´s Disease: A Double-blind, Randomized, Crossover, Placebo-controlled Polygraphic Trial
    Department of Neurology and *Department of Biostatistics, University of Innsbruck, Austria
    Objectives: To assess the therapeutic efficacy of modafinil in the treatment of increased daytime sleepiness in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD).
    Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that modafinil improves daytime sleepiness in PD patients, at least on a subjective or behavioral level. Modafinil treatment may be considered for EDS in PD patients, in whom otherwise treatable causes of Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS) are absent.

    This could be another indicator that Hillary has Parkinson’s

    Sounds like good stuff… Modafinil is also approved for pilots in the Air Force as the current replacement for uppers to stay awake, the only drug they allow for that purpose… just the thing for a fatigued old woman trying to campaign full time, so I can’t exactly take that for strong evidence of PD. Not that she doesn’t show some other symptoms.

    Now that we have all the leaks and hacks and FBI sort of interviews, it becomes clear why the 0 admin black balled long time Clinton hack Sidney Blumenthal from any administration job or clearances with State.
    He was slick willy’s hatchet man in 08′ sending reporters to Africa. Wasn’t there an old willy event video selling that narrative?
    So who was giving no clearance Sidney the alpha clearance materials he yacked about on line? A defacto crime.

    First, I am not a medical expert by any stretch of the imagination. If Hillary has pneumonia like I did the last time, one brief campaign appearance every other day is more than enough. In fact, it may be heroic. She, like me, coughed a dry cough for way too long before getting on antibiotics. When I finally did seek professional help, I had already “fainted” a few times, once awaking on the office floor after hours not knowing how long I had been laying there. Faint is the polite way of saying “collasped, passed out, blacked out, took a nose dive”. Complete rest was an easy order to follow since even the thought of getting up to use the jon was a long battle within myself that seemed like it required more energy than I had. Too little oxygen getting to the brain. Any overdoing it leads to relapse. A week down and out if you jump on it….3 weeks or more of feeling like a soggy pretzel before getting back to even close to 100% if you put off getting on antibiotics like I did. And pneumonia leaves scar tissue.
    Whether Hillary really has pneumonia or not, I cannot say. She collasped on 9/11/2016. Probably was not even thinking about the 4 Ameticans she did NOT give the Defense Department the green light to get our boys out of Benghazi on another 9/11. But, prior to the 11th day of September, Hillary was off the campaign 16 out of the 31 days in August of 2016. Unheard off in this day and age. 90 or so days to go and she was out of action for 16 of the 31 days in August. Talk about a bad time to lose your Mo-Jo.
    Now, my real point. Pneumonia or not, serious underlying health issues or not, I propose that she is suffering from the effects of stress. Stress, anxiety, a unresolved guilty conscious, whatever you call it….stress will pop up in one’s physicall body in numerous ways with severe consequences. Heart disease, circulation, bones, muscle tissue, organs, too many ways to list. Years of lying, hiding, stuffing, and hoping your deepest darkest secrets never come out into the light will lead to premature death and a miserable existence with poor health. Plus, she is 68 and is not some Spring Chicken.
    Imagine the horrid worry she must suffer through wondering when the other shoe(s) will drop via Wikileaks. Since she has a vague idea what the leaks may contain, she is scared shitless. She looks frightened when she scans the tiny crowds she is addressing lately when she scans to her right. She looks drained taking to reporters on the plane or in front of her plane. Monday she addressed a crowd of 200 (not the reported 300) at Temple, a university of 26,000 undergrad students situated in a urban setting! 200? That was her only appearance scheduled and apparently it was enough to have a picture taken of her being helped up a stair. I zoomed into the faces of those surrounding her and all eyes where looking down and Huma showed concern/stress on her face as well. Geeze, it’s not like it was several stairs to climb, but all eyes were looking at Hillary’s feet.
    Just a theory, but stress will knock your wheels out from under you, mess up your ticker, and clog your plumbing. Mess with your thinking and emotions as well. If you are out of whack in any one of three parts (spiritually, emotionally, physically), it will always show up in the other two. Not the most opportune time for the chickens coming home to roost. What you sow is what you reap. Keep her in your prayers, the poor darling. Hillary, stay out of the evening air for awhile. Love ya, My Gal.

    OOOps, Trump weakened a bit in today’s USC Daybreak poll… looks like either he pissed Millenials off by calling them snowflakes (I just made that up) or Hillary promised to pay for their college educations again. Black support for Trump also again going back to the gutter.
    Nate Silver has it 55.7%/44.3%, and Clinton only 9 electors over what she’d need. If all the states go as Silver expects but with Colorado turning Trump (it’s 60/40 odds now), Trump would win.
    Damn, Paul, I wish you would have taken that bet at 4:1, it’s looking like I’d have half of my xmas shopping done.

    Shoot the messenger! Just kidding, Gregory. Us Trumpamaniacs have to slough it out for every inch of the uphill climb. More R’s are coming home now, finally. Still behind, but not doing that bad, all things considered.
    My theories on the 2016 Presdiential election and Hiilary. I will get to Trump at a later date, yet to be named.
    1) Hillary should/will carry the lion’s share of the minority vote as any D would. She may even get the normal high percentages of the black vote, but it will be a smaller pie she draws from. Millennials do not like her, and that includes minorities. Not inspired, not enthusiastic. She ain’t Obama. Also, the group least likely to register and vote are Hispanics for some reason. So, less total votes from the Obama/Dem coalition.
    http://www.salon.com/2016/07/27/watch_black_lives_matter_protesters_chant_hillary_has_blood_on_her_hands_at_dnc_march/
    2) Women. Hillary’s pre-primary strategy as well as convential wisdom at the time was Hillary will be carried by the women’s vote, her largest block of support. The difference maker. Except for the seasoned citizen women voters who want to see a woman as Prez before they die, her “women” vote is not as large as as once assumed. She cannot fill a room. 2/3 of those old white angry males that attend Trump’s rallies are in reality women. Yep, 2/3 of folks at Trump’s rallies are women per several outside press observations from several different rallies. One put a rally at 70% women.
    3). Bill Clinton, Hillary’s campaign, and Legacy: People liked Bill Clinton. Loved in many quarters. Hillary has not endeared herself to the voter as only Bill could. The Bubba Machine was staffed by rabid Bill Clinton loyalists. James Carville Is one of hundreds that come to mind. Everybody on Bubba’s team where all in for Bill. When Hillary enlisted the same seasoned veteran players for her campaign in 2008, it became immediately clear that the “Clintonestas” were loyal to Bill, not his wife. Yes, she has Podesta running things, but that is the exception, not the rule. And Podesta is no Leon Panetta.
    The main thing about Bill Clinton is it reminds people of yesterday, not 2016. The scandals have taken their toll in the back of the voters’ minds. Who wants years of more investigations in the Clinton Foundation, years of Wikileaks surprises, and the prospect of BOTH presidents named Clinton impeached? It is a possibility with the Hillary’s Clinton lust for power, prestige, riches, more riches, and mind numbing flagrant Clinton recklessness. The merging of Bill’s post presidency image of a high rolling jet setting playboy making questionable deals from questionable players and receiving questionable money coupled with Hillary’s unbridled greed doing what Bill has been doing may have greatly tarnished the Clinton image in the voter’s mind. The ultimate insider. A night in the Lincoln Bedroom is for sell if the price is right.
    Hillary is still in the lead, but it has not been the cakewalk it would be as once written in stone. People do not like her. She has not demonstrated leadership skills when put in leadership positions. She offers no change in a year folks thirst for change.

    OH BILL!!.. Hillary is off the trail again.. “Resting” for the big debate. You buy that?
    I say she had another brain fart… My mistake, Pneumonia relapse. More canceled campaign stops at the last minute.
    Now when debate night is upon the ol’ girl, and she has another episode because the Trumpster gets her blood pressure up, what will the excuse factory gin up?
    Someone on the Trump team better check for an ear piece so the man behind the curtain can’t
    whisper in her ear and help her out.
    Some say she doesn’t have one. BUT…. (from the leaked emails,,, Woods also posted a Clinton email from the Wikileaks archive in which Huma Abedin asked Hillary, “Did u take your earpiece or do I need to get it?” )
    If the LIB protectionists say one thing, place your bets on the other.

    Walt, she did get tubes put in her one ear in Jan, according to her doctor. They usually get pushed out in a few months on their own. Maybe it was the tube saying “I am Ouutta here.”
    Hillary will do good at the debates. She will be rested and donning her convention make-up. Boy, they sure racked Matt Lauier over the coals. They eat their own. Trump did a call in to a radio show I was listening to yesterday. He said Matt was tough but fair, and Trump did mention that he personally thought he got more hardball questions than Hillary, but Matt did a good job. Then Trump went to say how terrible it is to see Matt L being trashed so ruthlessly over just being tough but fair to him and Hillary. He was defending the guy and repulsed by the injustice of it all. Matt was not partisan enough.
    Come to find out, the call in was a maybe. The Trump campaign said we will try to squeeze him in, no guarantees on short notice. Trump called the next day. He was 8 minutes before Showtime at a rally but called the radio show for those 8 minutes, said goodbye and then walked out into the arena. A secret service guy later e-mailed the radio host and said he has never seen anybody do a call-in before an event, ever. The VIPs are always concentrating about the speech to be given, what to say, and deep in thought. Not Trump. Squeezes another one in and walks out to the stage. Good time management.
    Hillary will look vibrate at the first debate. Profession make up artists from Hollywood can work miracles. Heck, they can make The Creature from the Black Lagoon look better than Hillary looks on one of her good days. She will be so full of preservatives that you could mistake her for a post and hang a sign on her, IMHO.

    The RCP “no toss up” Electoral count, where the polled majorities large or small get the electoral votes, now has Clinton ahead barely, 272/268 as of a few moments ago.
    Golly, that’s a tight race. Maybe Hillary and her supporters need to really get nasty and tell people how bad Trump is.

    All women like security. Females like to nest. Where are the parents? The ones with the moral authority to say “keep your butt home, don’t you dare go out in the riot, and I ain’t taking no lip.” Like the Rez. No hope, no job prospect, addiction, no direction, left to figure it out by themselves. Not making excuses, just the facts. Lord of the Flies.
    Todd, Ed Rollins thinks the riots will help Trump, but not for security angle. More of exposing the Democrat inner city policies that have brought us to where we are now.
    Scroll down about half way to “freebies” and there is a audio of Ed Rollins. About 9 minutes long, listen to as much as you wish, if at all. He sounds like a common sense elder statesman now, IMHO.

    American University Professor Predicts Trump Will Win In November
    Only 45 days remain until Election Day, and Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are in a statistical dead heat in national polls, but that hasn’t stopped one man from predicting that Trump will come out on top.
    Allan Lichtman, a distinguished professor of history at American University, has used his own historical model that he calls the “Keys to the White House” to correctly predict the outcomes of the last eight presidential elections dating back to 1984. As for the 2016 race to the White House, Lichtman told The Washington Post that he can now predict that Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States.
    Lichtman’s “Keys to the White House” are a series of true or false questions that are rooted in history — not polling — and apply largely to the incumbent party of the White House, in this case the Democrats. These “keys” are outlined thoroughly in his book “Predicting the Next President: The Keys to the White House 2016.”

    With 70% of the arrests in Charolette coming from out of staters brought in on buses, one would think that our Justice Department would dig into this and charge some people and groups with crossing state lines to commit so and so, like they charged the Chicago 7 after the 68′ Dem Convention. Guess I thunk wrong.
    Perhaps, IMHO, the biggest travesty is Charolette being painted in the media as a racist redneck backwoods community and North Carolina as well. Nothing could be further from the truth. Charolette as rebuilt itself into a modern regional hub. Charlotte hails one of the most diverse police forces around and, like Dallas, has taken several proactive steps with positive outreaches into the crime infested areas. Too bad. North Carolina should have let confused men with cameras into the little girls’ rooms. Now this. Black cop kills black man and black police chief says he has to deal with facts in his world. Mercy. How out of touch with the narrative!
    Me thinks Charolette will have no other choice but to have the Justice Department step in and federalize another police force. AG Lynch will make them an offer they can’t refuse.
