"Donald Trump is gaining support among African-American voters — whose enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton is eroding, a tracking poll released Saturday revealed.
Trump saw a 16.5 percentage-point increase in backing from African-American voters in a Los Angeles Times/University of Southern California tracking poll, up from 3.1 percent on Sept. 10 to 19.6 percent through Friday.
Meanwhile, the same poll showed Clinton’s support among that group plummeting from 90.4 percent on Sept. 10 to 71.4 percent. Clinton’s nearly 20-point crash began Sunday, said Dan Schnur of USC. Sunday was the day Clinton was recorded collapsing while entering a Secret Service van at a 9/11 event...
thats the same somewhat dubious la times poll
You're getting really quite comic now.
His "oh, well, if it's on breitbart" this morning (in response to a video posted on breitbart rather than a statement made by them) was I think as dim as anything Ash managed in his heyday, if you remember Ash.
its a terrible website which makes up stuff to get white nationalists excited. hardly trustworthy
Awww - so everyone who disagrees with you is a bent pollster, or a white supremacist? Seriously?
Make your point for your side - throwing around insults doesn't cut much ice here.
i didnt say the la time poll was bent. i said why i think its a bit dubious below. which is perfectly reasonable.
breithart are very much pro white fundamentalist. No disputing that i would have thought.
No it isn't. It's right-leaning and takes a firm line on Islamic terrorism apologism. You're clearly unaware that it's UK editor is called Raheem Kassam.
looks like clinton is making a comeback in the polls post illness
In Pennsylvania maybe, she leads there by 6.6% with RCP, nationally probably not, her RCP average national lead is now down to just 0.9% http://www.realclearpolitics.com/

He's on Twitter and backing Owen IIRC - and not at all happy about Brexit.
'Leave' for them will mean not just leaving the EU, but a whole raft of regressive policies.
What policies?
Well, there was that whole discussion about wanting to bomb the Europeans, by ourselves[5] or with the Russians[4], redefining Nato to disinclude the Europeans[1][2][3], then rolling back the Wilson/Jenkins/Mandelson/Crosland reforms[6]
With a great deal of respect, I don't think that suggestions that we bomb mainland Europe were being made entirely seriously. The only actual policy suggestion I see here is to reduce the size of the state to pre WW1 levels. I look upon that with an open mind. It is obvious to me, if sadly to few others that the size of our state compared with the pay packet we earn from the rest of the world is grossly distended.
Whatever happens May will not roll back the state to anywhere near WW1 levels, by the time she leaves office I still expect her government to be spending more than Blair's 1997-2001 government, let alone the government pre WW1
So do I, but saying it probably won't happen doesn't mean it shouldn't.
There are certainly some who take that view, but they tend only to be found on the hard right of the Tory Party, with maybe a few UKIP backers alongside them

Yes, but trustworthiness doesn't really arise in connection with a video parts of which are available everywhere else on the internet and whose authenticity is not in question, does it? You aspire to being a troll, and fail even at that.
What I find so odd - is that Hillary looks zonked. She's swaying, slow and clearly trying really hard to appear normal. It's how I'd look on tranquillisers or drunk when pretending to be sober.
It's getting ZERO mentions in the media. They're all bickering about the definition of 'is'.
Don't you think she looks tired? She appears too stupefied to put one word after another. I think she campaigned in 2008 as having experience of what to do when the Pentagon ring at 3 in the morning to announce a nuclear first strike; she doesn't currently look as if she would be much use at that.
Please God send us a Kaine presidency.
My wife and I used to joke about making up bumper stickers with "Vote for Trump. He'll be easier to impeach" Now perhaps we should have "Vote Hillary. She'll die sooner"

Obama: Would be 'personal insult' to legacy if black voters don't back Clinton
"I will consider it a personal insult -- an insult to my legacy -- if this community lets down its guard and fails to activate itself in this election. You want to give me a good sendoff? Go vote."
It is an inevitable consequence of the Leave vote. The inferior calibre of the Leave politicians was inevitably going to impoverish the quality of government. Theresa May has exacerbated the problem by also settling scores entirely unnecessarily.
Neither Fallon nor Hammond were Leavers. I do agree with you though, they are both utterly talentless and long past their sell-by date.
Fallon and Hammond actually used to say they were eurosceptics and then decided that their career interests would be best served by going over to REMAIN. Hammond is also very prone to civil service capture.

John Miller MSNBC panel SHOCKED to learn #Trump warned about 9/11 in Jan 2000, 19+ mo before attack! #SundayMorning #NeverForget https://t.co/Cew5d7SFeb
Bearing in mind that Islamists including Osama Bin Laden had tried to blow up the WTC in 1993, it hardly requires Mystic Meg to know they were planning major attacks*, perhaps on skyscrapers in NYC. As an owner of several skyscrapers there I would expect Trump to have had a more than passing interest.
*(Except of course as many Trump supporters (and Islamists) know, actually the 9/11 attacks were organised by the CIA and Mossad as part of a conspiracy by holographic lizards. Or something)
That's risible handwaving. He said it - you know it, and just don't like it.
So he mentioned in a book several years after the event of the 1993 bombing and 1997 conviction of radical Islamists in court that other Islamists might want to blow up buildings.
The man must be a clairvoyant genius or was part of the Zionist/NWO/Lizard/holographic plot for 9/11.
"I really am convinced we're in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the bombing of the Trade Center look like kids playing with firecrackers. No sensible analyst rejects this possibility, and plenty of them, like me, are not wondering if but when it will happen."
Trump The America We Deserve 2000 c.1
I don't see what your point is. Why does the fact that the warning is "in a book" matter?
btw "The 9/11 attacks also didn't come without warning. As early as December 4, 1998, former President Clinton was warned that bin Laden was preparing to hijack U.S. aircraft, according to the 9/11 Commission Report."
If you are a Clinton supporter I don't think you want to get into a pissing contest over 9/11 predictions. Find a really interesting squirrel to point to.
I am not particularly a Clinton supporter, though I think she will be a far better POTUS as far as the UK is concerned.
Just pointing out that Trump is not the prescient genius implied by Plato.

Is that a euphemism for listening to and occasionally even taking advice that challenges whatever lunacy the true believers are pushing on any given day?
Given that GO was closely involved in the Renegotiation with Brussels that killed both his and Cameron's careers stone dead, Theresa May would go through the whole phone book looking for an alternative before she dialled up Osborne's number.
The only way Osborne gets close to power again requires him to come through the revolving doors that May is leaving from.
My reading of Osborne is that he's all about realpolitik and happy to be flexible if that's what is required. That's what allowed him to move from matching new labour spending, to age of austerity, to tax cuts, to long-term economic plan, and then to a Blue Labour approach in the autumn of last year.
His biggest flaw is bearing personal antipathies and dislike of the Right. This all hinges on him learning some lessons, and being the bigger man.
He is bright enough to do so. Question is: can he bring himself to do so?
I think the problem here lies with May rather than Osborne. It appears that she holds grudges - maybe with some justification - but if the PM cannot be the bigger person here then no-one can.
Agreed. Having sacked Osborne in such a brutal manner, May has now left herself in the unenviable position where any return to government in a prominent role under her premiership will be seen as a humiliating U turn on her part.
Good article and nice to see Casino joining the panel of above-the-line writers.
I think Osborne has chosen a not-very-veiled oppositional role and May does not go in for rewarding that, so I suspect it'll be a while before his chance comes - if May becomes very unpopular, though, he might be seen as a useful reinforcement and/or possible replacement.
Do we have any idea of the proportion of Tory MP's that would be vehemently opposed to a hard Brexit. That is, WTO rules at best? Those that would prefer in to hard brexit, and might vote against a hard brexit package in a commons vote?
The judiciary may yet force this.
If the judiciary succeed in blocking Brexit, the best case is UKIP emulating the SNP s 2015 performance in most of England, the worst case is civil war.
A touch of hyperbole perhaps.
Simply would need Parliament passing a law activating article 50. At worst it would be a delay of a few months.
Does May have the votes? Ken C has already said he will vote it down. Anna Soubry most likely will follow. Osborne might stick the knife in. LibDems vote down. I guess if it is tricky the Ulster guys will rescue her.
I suspect, if a vote were held, it would go like many in the US Senate. Once the counting were done, a certain number would be 'allowed' to vote their conscience while still ensuring the bill passed.
I think enough Tories who are queasy about Brexit would be corralled into line, given that a general election in the aftermath of the Tories failing to deliver Brexit would not necessarily be the resounding success for the Tories that it might with Brexit in the bag. Those wavering Tory MPs will, no doubt, be made painfully aware of that. Along with other threats.
Prudent Conservative opponents will not outright oppose but penelopise. Cunctators, as Leavers might well say.
Lol.
This is what an online dictionary says:
'If you're a cunctator, you tend to procrastinate, or put off til later what you should probably do right now. Your teacher might call you a cunctator if you start writing your paper the night before it's due'

Years ago, a friend turned his damsons into slivovic; i.e., plum brandy, famous in Croatia/Serbia. He left the damsons to ripen until they were dropping off the trees, made a wine - little or no sugar, ripe damsons contain so much. He said the wine was undrinkable and had a slight almond flavour from leaving the stones in but the distilled spirit he offered guests was delicious.
NB For this to be strictly legal, you have to go to France. The UK is so puritan it bans it. My friend said he used ordinary kitchen containers to distil it.
