..and now I'm not so worried about an October Surprise. But first read this...
Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani said Tuesday that he was using “abbreviated language” when he claimed that the U.S. had seen no terror attacks carried out by Islamic extremists before President Barack Obama came into office. "You speak in somewhat abbreviated language," he told the New York Daily News by way of explaining his Monday introduction for Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Youngstown, Ohio. "All human beings speak in abbreviated language at times."

The last sensible Delaware Republican, Mike Stafford, put this on his Facebook yesterday. I could not agree more.
Mike Stafford Yesterday at 9:37am · Before he ran for office, I recall asking Ken Simpler where his kids went to school after listening to +30 minutes of canned Rodel and Scott Walker-style anti-union and "education reform" tropes and talking points come spewing out of his mouth. His answer wasn't the local public school! I told him a politician who talks about education reform but doesn't have their kids in public school is like a Chevy salesman who drives a Toyota, only worse- because such a politician is willing to experiment on other peoples' children.

Nate Cohn: “The Upshot’s model gives Mrs. Clinton an 88 percent chance of winning. It’s about the same probability of hitting a field goal from the 20-yard line.” “That’s a pretty good way to think about it. If Mrs. Clinton ultimately wins, we will probably look back and say she had more or less already won it by this point. If she loses, these next two months will be talked about for decades.” “The game-winning field-goal analogy has one big weakness: She may win this by a lot more than a field goal.”
