As the demographics are right now, Drumpf would need 7 of 10 white male votes to have a chance of winning.

These polls are pretty meaningless until Bernie drops out. Yes, Trump will get his 40%, and Hillary will get her 40%, the question is about the remaining 20%. The question is who are the remaining 15-20% who prefer "other candidate" are going to pick once that "other candidate" is not in the race. And it's most likely going to be Clinton or stay at home. I don't see Trump getting more than a small minority of Sanders supporters.
You're assuming that 20% are Bernie voters.

So to be clear, the person who just called people 'shitty' and 'libtards' thinks that insulting people is the sign of someone being insecure.

lol. Nice self ownage.
I attempted to take the high road and you still don't get it. Keep owning yourself, just as your candidate Clinton does. Polls are going doooooooown. Get used to it, haha

And as you love to boast, Hillary is still running a primary. There will be lots of poll shifting after the conventions.
So you're moving from unreliable data to the data will change in the future. PROGRESS!

Point was Trump is up in this poll without a 70-30 split.

Never mind, it's pointless to try to explain anything to you.

First you said he needs to win 70-30 white voters. I show a poll where he wins white voters 55-31 and still leads. You say it is because it is Fox. I show that Silver rates Fox a .5% Gop lean. You then say Hillary is still in the primary and will get a bump once she wins nomination. Which happens to make no difference to a poll where Trump leads and doesn't have a 70-30 white split and is still ahead.

Point, Trump doesn't need a 70-30 split, according to that poll. You're wrong.

Hey buckshot, weren't you supposed to pick "your girl up at school?" Is there someone actually waiting for you?

Oh, did the police show up and stop you, as I hoped?

Fox and Rasmussen use weighted cell / land line.

CBS uses land line.

Fox also had a sample of 41% self identified republicans. Let me guess, the ones you didn't like are wrong and the ones you did like are right.

Always read the crosstabs.

Don't unskew the polls.

I looked at 538 poll ratings and most of the polls are slightly biased toward the GOP. One wonders if that is because Romney performed so poorly vs the polls last time.

I bias adjusted the RCP average and it went to almost 4% lead for Clinton vs 3.1%.
