Publius Decius Mus rightly mocks Mark Levin's convention of the states
Not in so many words, but he does nevertheless, here:
"[I]n the federally consolidated super-state, what good do state legislatures do anyway? Does Voegeli or doesn’t he agree with me that federal and administrative state control will become more consolidated rather than less in Clinton II? We could have every statehouse in the nation, and everything we try to do (which, once again, is: not much) would just be overridden by judges and bureaucrats."
It was amusing to hear Mark Levin play an Antonin Scalia audio this evening, in which Scalia ridiculed the parchment barrier of The Bill of Rights, which Levin's grand scheme is to increase the length of with his manifold "liberty amendments". Does Levin even listen to Scalia, or just grovel at his feet?
Scalia clearly expressed in the audio that the separation of powers was key to our liberties, not the Bill of Rights.
Yet, yet, neither Scalia, nor Levin, nor Publius Decius Mus for that matter recognize that it was Abraham Lincoln, their hero!, who destroyed the separation of powers and arrogated all the power to the executive, the very heart and soul of the once and future "federal and administrative state".
That Lincoln did so over slavery was simply the pretext.
Hello Barack Obama. Hello Black Lives Matter. Hello . . . communism.
Chris Matthews of PMSNBC sounds like he wants to be for Trump
"[Trump] knows that the average guy out there, the average joe, the regular guy and woman, is very angry about the way this country -- and Hillary is the symbol of the establishment. She is the symbol of the way things are headed... and they don't like that. They are trying to ring the bell and say, 'No!' And Trump is the only way to ring it... If Trump is even smart enough to know this, it would be really dangerous."
Much more here.
FOX News poll goes from Trump +1 on 9/14 to Hillary +5 on 9/29
More evidence Trump's performance at Debate One is hurting him.
In the news at the top of the hour, the Presidential Debate Commission admits there were problems with Donald Trump's microphone
Friday night news dump, when no one is paying attention.
Trump moves from +1.4 on 9/23 in the LA Times/USC poll to +5.6 on 9/30
That suggests, unlike the Rasmussen poll, that Debate One helped Trump.
Go figure.
Trump's big lead in Rasmussen poll reverses after Debate One
Here:
Clinton took a statistically insignificant 42% to 41% lead over Trump in yesterday’s survey, but she had been trailing by five points a week earlier.

The answer: CHUMPS
Hillary, here.
Trump has captured the real American spirit, the spirit of the true born sons of liberty who dumped the cheaper taxed tea into Boston harbor.

Hillary's lyin' again: "This TPP sets the gold standard in free trade agreements"
In 2012, here.
9/26/16:
DONALD TRUMP
You called it the gold standard. You call it the gold standard of trade deals.
HILLARY CLINTON
You know what --
DONALD TRUMP
You said it’s the finest deal you’ve ever seen.
HILLARY CLINTON
No.

Mark Levin makes a fair point: Trump would have been prepared to respond to Clinton had he been a conservative
And he says the most memorable line from Debate One will be "Hannity", which is very funny.
Today's Electoral College snapshot from Real Clear Politics has Clinton winning 292-246
Today's Electoral College snapshot from Real Clear Politics has Clinton winning 292-246
Real Clear Politics shows Trump up 1 in the Electoral College with 165, Clinton down 12 with 188, and 185 too close to call, up 11 from last week Tuesday.
Based only on the polling as of this morning in the toss-up states with 185 Electoral College votes at stake, Trump wins in NV, AZ, CO, IA, OH, NC, and GA, bringing him to 246, 24 shy of the 270 he needs to win.
Clinton wins in MN, WI, MI, NH, ME, PA, VA and FL, bringing her to 292, 22 more than she needs to win.
Trump has picked up NV, CO and NC in the last week in this analysis, but lost FL to Clinton by a hair.
Clinton is polling under +4 in ME, under +2 in PA and under +1 in FL this week.
Trump is much more vulnerable, polling under +3 in NV, AZ and OH this week. He is polling under +1 in CO and NC. In GA he's ahead +4.5, in IA +5.
ME-2 has moved out of the toss-ups in the last week, and ME and MN have moved in.
42 days to election day 2016.

Clinton surrogates in the media this weekend portray Trump as a liar because that's HILLARY'S problem
So says Gallup, here, where "lie" never comes up in the Trump list of top words used about him (in fact no negative words come up in the list at all), but comes up in the Hillary list six straight weeks along with "scandal" during three weeks:
Hillary dives 80% in Quinnipiac poll since 9/13
She's +1 in the poll through 9/25, but had been +5 through 9/13.
Meanwhile Bloomberg shows Trump and Hillary tied after not polling since early August when it was Hillary +6.
She's got a real PR problem for calling Trump supporters "deplorable" on 9/10, and for trying to cover up her health problems which were exposed the very next day, on 9/11.

Outrageous: FBI gave immunity to Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, Clinton executive assistant Heather Samuelson and John Bentel of the State Department
That's how badly James Comey doesn't want Donald Trump elected president.
From the Friday-afternoon-when-no-one-is-paying-attention-news-dump, here:
"No wonder they couldn't prosecute a case," said Chaffetz, R-Utah. "They were handing out immunity deals like candy." ...
The latest revelation brings the total number of people who were granted immunity as part of the FBI's investigation to at least five.
It had previously been reported immunity had been granted to Bryan Pagliano, a tech expert who set up Clinton's email server, as well as Paul Combetta, a computer specialist for a private firm that later maintained Clinton's email setup.
Ted Cruz says he'll vote for Donald Trump as promised, urges you to join him, and says Hillary is wholly unacceptable
Here on Facebook, citing primarily Supreme Court appointments and the fate of the Bill of Rights, then the costs of ObamaCare for millions of Americans, the Democrat war on coal, oil and gas, the lawless executive illegal immigrant amnesty, threats to National Security from Muslim immigration, and Obama's giving up of US control of the internet.
That should also help him get reelected down in Texas.
Smart move. Really late, but a smart move.

William Voegeli doesn't know that Oliver Goldsmith's perhaps most famous axiom was written by Samuel Johnson
Are we therefore wrong to look to an Oliver Goldsmith, and then to a Donald Trump, "to lead and inspire"?
Here:
Stipulating all that for the sake of the argument does nothing to clarify how a Trump presidency remedies the afflictions catalogued in this sprawling diagnosis. Indeed, since many items on the list are social trends or crackpot ideas, it’s not clear how any president can reverse the damage being done. “How small, of all that human hearts endure,” wrote Oliver Goldsmith, “that part which laws or kings can cause or cure.” Conservatives invoke this axiom to rebuke liberal social planners, but it also calls into question whether political activity can effect moral and social regeneration. And to whatever extent Americans still look to presidents to lead and inspire through word and deed, Trump’s capacity to advance such causes as virtue, morality, religious faith, and stability is exceptionally doubtful.
What's wrong with America, epitomized by Glenn Harlan Reynolds
He thinks gay libertarian Peter Thiel would be an excellent nominee to the US Supreme Court.
Here.
The libertarian vote is like 1% of the population. LGBTQLSMFT is less than 4% of the population, but there isn't one Protestant on the Supreme Court even though 50% of the country is.
