I dunno, I recall a map by 538 I think (see below) that speculated on an electoral college where Trump won over virtually no women voters. Very blue.

I'm not sure that's fair. I believe the current polling shows that Trump has an advantage with men (if only men voted, then the map would be completely red), but Clinton has an advantage with women.

However, rich, white men isn't accurate either. Uneducated, white men would be closer to the truth.

The scary thing is contemplating a conversion and acceptance of an old verb as a proper noun if it should win the election. Words fail

I was advised by my doctor four years ago to get an anti-pneumonia vaccination in addition to the annual anti- flu shot. The anti-pneumonia shot lasts for a lifetime.

I'm wondering why Hillary's doctors apparently didn't advise her the same especially at her age. Apparently money doesn't always get one the best doctors

It doesn't cover all strains. I had the vaccine 2 1/2 years ago...it didn't prevent me getting bacterial pneumonia this year.

Maybe her doctors did and she chose not to get it?

Or she did get the vaccine, but became ill anyway. I don't think the vaccines cover all possible causes of pneumonia.

Who knows, really.

What you and JG said, basically. The vaccine is only going to help prevent viral pneumonia, and no vaccine is 100% effective anyway.

My husband's cousin had the same a few months before I was sick. She was otherwise in good health and roughly the same age as me. I say 'was' because she was admitted to hospital and died.

That reports say she is receiving antibiotics would suggest it isn't viral pneumonia.

Kellyanne has a big ugly bruise on her face. I wonder if Trump punched her.
