Looks like Hillary took a page from her loyal supporter, Tender Branson.

Clearly, this is to push people to actually vote.

This election seems to be tightening the last few days based on the polls. I am glad Hillary is saying this.

Why is Hillary panicking? Her victory is basically locked in.

The one that excludes any D-tilt polls, but quickly throws in Gravis and Remington?

New CNN poll has the same margin (5 points) as before the sex tape and 15% of voters can change their minds. She is not up by much more. These are of course good numbers but it hasn't been won yet and she knows it very well.

RCP is including a poll which shows Clinton leading by 12. Anyone believes she is leading by as much?

No, it's not 'tightening' it's small shifts. But this is about making sure her supporters don't get complacent and stay home. It's pretty simple.

They always say it's close. That how you motivate your electorate. There's a lot of examples of elections who were in the bag and then... surprise.

But, by the way, the election isn't that close. A 5% lead in American standarts is a blowout.

That was before the first debate, when everything was going wrong for her. Remember that she went into the first debate behind in IA, OH, FL, NV, NC, and ME-2. She now has the lead in ALL of those states/districts.

This has to be a blowout. We don't know the kind of voter suppression techniques , the Trumpkins are planning.

Clinton also wants to be able to work with a Dem controlled senate and gain as many seats in the house as her coattails can provide.

Er...want do you expect her to say? "I have this election in the bag, this is a blowout, don't bother voting!"

Even some guy in an R+20 district running against Kesha Rogers issued a generic statement like "we don't take any election for granted!"

This is the most pointless thread ever.

This is honestly what I was hoping to see from her campaign, as I myself have been worried about people being too overconfident of a Clinton victory.

She wants to win Senate and House seats, as well as gubernatorial races, of course.
