Interesting

If you were to look at the latest HuffPost Pollster trends, HRC is cruising along just fine. What's interesting to see how they suddenly show how close the 2nd and 3rd place folks are. Considering 3rd place is a guy who's not even in the race. But of course, in poll world every knows that trailing by 35.5 means more than only leading the guy behind you by 6.1.

And in a game of Outliers are fun, look at that Zogby poll from 8/3 - 8/4 where Biden is #2 by a +6.

But in the end, it's another day, another poll with no significant movement. A few more of these and I'd expect Rove himself to show up and tell us that Ohio is still in play, and HRC is actually losing.
