If you have ever sat in a focus group in a swing state, you are 100% certain that most soft partisans make up their minds on who to vote for based on things that are totally outside of an understanding of issues.

More quotes by Christopher Michael Cillizza
I am not convinced that means [Donald] Trump is a lock to be the next president but it does suggest that what he has tapped into is both lasting and powerful.

[Paul] Ryan won kudos both within his membership and the party base for not giving in.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I do think that even if the average person doesn't care, it IS a big deal. Like, it's been a foundational principle of our democracy for 240 years.

Prominent Democratic strategists are growing increasingly nervous that the national political environment is not only bad for their side but moving in the wrong direction in the final days before the election, a trend that not only could cost their party control of the Senate but also result in double-digit House losses.

The editorial board, who endorses candidates, is totally separate from the news side of the business. We don't consult one another. They have one job to do, we have a totally different one to do. So whether the Washington Post editorial board endorses Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton is meaningless to me.

There are no more slow weeks. I realized this about 3 years ago. Downtime in politics isn't a thing.

Nothing makes me crazier than the you gave us Trump argument based on Hillary Clinton's emails. I didn't set up the private server. I didn't advise her to be decidedly cryptic about the whole thing. I didn't tell the FBI to investigate.

I think Donald Trump's natural tendency in all things is to resist any deal where he doesn't get to set the terms.

Trump staying disciplined and on message is not what Donald Trump wants. He views himself as a tremendously gifted natural communicator who connects best with people when he is riffing without notes or preparation.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
[Donald] Trump won fair and square! He got 13.3 million votes. He won all over the country. He won when the race was crowded and when it was a one on one against Ted Cruz. There's just no reasonable way to keep Trump from the nomination while insisting that the will of the Republican voter is being respected.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I think Twitter is becoming remarkably intolerant and heavily liberal. As in, anything that is perceived as being pro Trump is scolded and mocked.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
Where we are in politics is running down whatever doesn't agree with you.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I eat like a maniac when I am sick. My attitude is if I am going to die anyway in the next 24-48 hours, I mind as well live it up.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
Anything is possible with Trump.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I see no issue with [Donald] Trump spending 48 hours in Scotland.Whether accidental or intentional, the fact that he was there when Britain voted to leave the EU was a good thing for him.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I am not sure we are going to see Republican Members endorsing Hillary Clinton. I think we will see plenty say they can't vote for Donald Trump. That doesn't mean they vote for her. They could either not vote, vote for the Libertarian ticket or write someone in.

I was 12 minutes late. Let's not make a federal case out of it.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
Of course, with the last ads shipped and the last polls conducted, there's not much to do but try to read the tea leaves. And from what Democrats are seeing, it doesn't look good. At all.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
A lack of transparency that fuels the idea that she is either hiding something or simply not someone to be trusted.
Christopher Michael Cillizza
I don't think we can rule out a wave, I think a Democratic takeover is possible but not probable.
