Battleground boss: Clinton leads Trump across swing-state map

Clinton has the edge in the states that matter most, according to POLITICO's inaugural Battleground States polling average.
By STEVEN SHEPARD 06/15/16 05:33 AM EDT

Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in the 11 pivotal states likely to determine the outcome of this year’s presidential election, according to the debut of POLITICO’s Battleground States polling average.

As the 2016 general election begins, Clinton holds a 5-point overall advantage in the POLITICO Battleground States polling average over Trump, 44.8 percent to 39.8 percent. That lead extends to the state level: Clinton has the advantage in eight of the 11 individual swing states.

It's lucky Democrats are smart enough to have a "Firewall" to stop completely unacceptable insurgents from outside the party. We didn't have to use them this time....but it's great to have them to back up our Democratic candidates!

SuperDs/Not superDs.

Remember that phase not so long ago wjem BS said he would contest the convention and sway the Dem SuperDs to him? The BBBd were harassing them at 2amish?

Now since he sees nobody is going to flip to him because they're not crazy.. he wants to get rid of them?
