Democratic Party convention: There's been a lot of chatter about how, if I cast my ballot for the Libertarians or the Greens or anybody but Hillary Clinton, it will be all my fault when Donald Trump gets elected. If Trump wins, it will be because the Democrats rigged the process to nominate someone who is loathed by great swatches of Americans.
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton toured the U.S. Rust Belt on Saturday, promising to reject bad international trade deals during a factory visit and securing the endorsement of investor Mark Cuban at a Pittsburgh rally. The Dallas Mavericks owner, who said as recently as last month that there was a "good chance" he would vote for Donald Trump, instead criticized the Republican nominee's leadership in front of an energetic crowd.
Hillary Clinton gets a slight bump across the battleground states coming out of her Democratic convention , answering the bump Trump got last week from his, and it pushes Clinton back into a very narrow lead overall. Clinton now stands at 43 percent support, ahead of Trump's 41 percent.

Courts have dealt setbacks in three states to Republican efforts that critics contend restrict voting rights - blocking a North Carolina law requiring photo identification, loosening a similar measure in Wisconsin and halting strict citizenship requirements in Kansas. The rulings Friday came as the 2016 election moves into its final phase, with Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton locked in a high-stakes presidential race and control of the U.S. Senate possibly hanging in the balance.
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton smiles as she addresses members of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees union during their 42nd International Convention at the Las Vegas Convention Center Tuesday, July 19, 2016. Now that the Democratic and Republican parties have wrapped up their nominating conventions, there are 100 days left before Election Day.
"Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending the United States of America," Khan said to Trump. Trump brushed off Khan's words in an interview with ABC News, insisting he had made "a lot of sacrifices."
With 100 days left before the fall presidential election, Democrat Hillary Clinton's campaign bus wound its way through Pennsylvania and Ohio, and Republican Donald Trump responded to criticism from the bereaved father of a Muslim Army captain. Khizr Khan said in his speech at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia last week that Trump has "sacrificed nothing and no one" for his country.
Donald Trump sparked bipartisan backlash, after the Republican attacked the bereaved parents of a Muslim U.S. Army captain who spoke at the Democratic convention last week. Critics from both parties on Saturday questioned whether Trump had the empathy and understanding to be president, particularly after he questioned why mourning mother Ghazala Khan stayed silent during her husband's Thursday night address.

Just eight years ago, the Democratic Party took the historic risk of nominating a little-known African-American, Barack Obama, for president. He won that year, then overcame stumbles and an economic slump to be returned comfortably four years later.
A crowd packed into a hot gymnasium at Youngstown's East High School Saturday night, waiting to hear from the first woman nominated by a major political party to run for President of the United States. They waited longer than expected to see Hillary Clinton and her running mate Senator Tim Kaine who took to the stage two hours and fifteen minutes after the program was scheduled to begin.
Yes, now that the Democratic convention is over and the nomination is official, we are confronting the possibility of not only the first woman president but also the first ex-president first spouse. A few months ago, this seemed incredibly exciting to Democrats.
To gauge the opportunism and hypocrisy that define Donald Trump's Republican Party, consider this: Imagine the scalding rhetoric that would have boiled from the likes of Newt Gingrich, that Metternich of many green rooms, if Hillary Clinton had offhandedly undermined the collective security architecture of U.S. foreign policy since NATO was created in 1949. Vladimir Putin's regime is saturating Europe with anti-Americanism, buying print and broadcast media, pliable journalists and other opinion leaders, and funding fringe political parties, think tanks and cultural institutions.
In their struggle for the upper hand on national security, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are emphasizing strikingly different themes - he as the bold and cunningly unpredictable strongman who will eliminate terrorism; she as the calm, conventional commander in chief who will manage all manner of crises. Terrorism is Trump's national security touchstone, and the Islamic State group is his target.
