I've got it 279 to 259 in favor of Trump. I have this strange feeling that Hillary gets North Carolina, Colorado and Nevada but Trump polls Pennsylvania because of the blue collar worker.

I will so using one of those maps to predict the election true it does show how hard it is for a Republican to win the presidential election. When Democrats automatically begin with 118 electoral votes from California, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York, that makes it really easy. If memory serves me correctly comma Democrats generally win Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Massachusetts which is another 47 electoral votes. That is 165 votes! Therefore on basically every election, Democrats only need to win about 3-4 states. If I were a Democrat running for president I would only campaign in four states (Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, & Pennsylvania) and fundraise in four states (NY, California, Illinois, & Michigan).

Yet, the Democrats with this unbelievable advantage still generally do a terrible job (i.e. Gore & Hillary). Part of me is hoping that my suspicion is true. I honestly believe that (at least before the "grab her right by the *****" comments) there is a large group of people that will vote for Trump but feel publicly shamed that they are. I remember reading and hearing that Trump did significantly better in online or anonymous polls than Hillary did.

I feel publicly ashamed of Hillary.
