The polls are not perfect. But they do give a good indication. They are best at spotting trends, and the trend is not Trump's friend. He polls poorly in every demographic, and his one bright spot, white males with little or no college, he is trailing Romney at this point in the election cycle. Yes but given that it is unpopular to many to admit that they would even consider voting for Trump might skew the results a bit. Heck if this causes people to going running for their "safe place"... Well, what the polls say depends upon the poll - the left is saying Trump is doing poorly, the right is saying that Trump is doing well in the polls both sides cherry picking the poll. Hey - they forgot someone - poor Hillary! Let me put it this way. If Trump had a good chance, the Trump supporters wouldn't be so openly praying that God will strike Hillary down with a crippling disease. Wishing for biblical style miracles is not a sign of optimism. Wishing ill of the competition is never good, but it doesn't strike me as people wishing with all their might - just stupid banter.
