Meanwhile, in the polls...

...it's the same old same old.

The consensus continues to be that it's Clinton's race to lose; the LA Times/USC and Rasmussen polls continue to appear to be polling in some alternate reality (and a pretty frightening one, at that); and the polls continue to include Jill Stein, but not Evan McMulin, who reportedly is running ahead of her in those few polls which bother to include him.

If your taste runs to tragic farce, the 2016 election is just your cup of tea.

Of course, it cold always be worse. The Rasmussen and LA Times/USC polls could actually be right- as, in the alternate reality inhabited by the alt-right core of The Donald's supporters, they are.
