Fareed Zakaria has an interesting piece on polls and why Hillary Clinton will be our next president. His basic argument is that people think, which is why Clinton will win the election. His last paragraph succinctly states his case:

And as people focus more closely on this race, they will surely come to recognize that Trump is not a generic Republican candidate but rather an unscrupulous and vulgar narcissist, a pathological liar, a bigot and a xenophobe. That will overwhelm what any model would predict. Because, in the end, we do think.

During Adlai Stevenson’s 1956 presidential campaign, a woman called out to him, “Governor Stevenson, all thinking people are for you!” And he answered, “That’s not enough. I need a majority.”

We can only hope that Fareed Zakaria is right and Adlai Stevenson is wrong.
