I did not state that I didn't think the race was close but rather that the recent polls don't yet reflect a fundamental change in the electoral vote projections.
You talk about your 'slice of the pie' family and friends? Well of course, there was a story yesterday that practically no one knows people who are voting for the other party!
I remember in '12 the 'everybody I know polls' of a conservative acquaintance that, of course, had no one NOT voting for Romney.
How'd that work out?
You can run with that 'democratic cities' meme all you like, but the fact is that the major cities and surrounding areas are the drivers of wealth and jobs in this country, and in the world.
The Census Report the other day indicated that in fact a rising economic tide did in fact lift all boats in '15, including those of the poor with a corresponding decrease in the poverty rate.
As for 'hope'? That is also all that people have throughout large swaths of the South and the Great Plains.
Intractable, intergenerational poverty is not confined to the cities and cutting taxes and increasing spending, as Trump proposes, is not the answer, much less an engine for 3.5% GDP growth
The Clinton model of the 90's, raise taxes, cut spending, was at least responsible for a budget surplus, that was squandered by Dubya, with consequent results.
Trump wants to try the 'Dubya economic model', again.
No thanks, say everybody I know!
