For the First Time Since the Democratic National convention, a National Poll gives donald trump a narrow twopoint lead over Hillary Clinton, something the pollconscious nominee noticed during a stop in virginia beach. Its good psychology, you know, good psychology. I know that for a fact, because people that didnt call me yesterday, theyre calling me today. So, thats the way life works, right . But i think were doing very well. Hi reporter while trump shows an important polling andza organizational advantages in battleground states. Ta clintons statebystate leads give her an edge according to cbs projections in the pursuit of the 270 electoral votes required to win the presidency. Trumps campaign unveiled a list of nearly 90 generals and admirals endorsing his candidacy and the promise of more military spending. These are our fighters, these are our fighting generals, and theyre actually a lot more toey te reporter trump also kept up his criticism of clintons record as secretary of state, asserting adversaries like russia neither respect nor fear her. Hillary likes to play toughus with russia. Putin looks at her and he laughs. Okay . He laughs. Reporter trumps effort to win points on National Security were undercut by a cold rebuke from the editorial pages of the dallas morning news, which has endorsed every republican nominee since 1968. Principles are negotiable, ite, said. Donald trump is not qualified to serve as president and does not deserve your vote. Trumps campaign had no reaction to the editorial. Scott, republicans who back clinton said it was noteworthy in the list of military endorsers of trump, not one was a former chairman or vice chairman of the joint chiefs ofr staff and not one of them, they said, was a former combat commander. Pelley Major Garrett reporting for us. Nancy cordes is covering the clinton campaign. His whole campaign has been one long insult to all those who have worn the uniform. Reporter clinton arguedday today trump is too undisciplined to be diplomatinchief. They wont even give him stairs. Reporter she noted his reaction after chinese officials failed to provide air force onev with the proper set of stairs this weekend. If that were me, id say,sa you know what, folks . Of here. Reporter clinton said thatn would have been immature. You dont get in a snit and stay on your plane and go home because your security and their security are scuffling over what stairs are going to be put up. Reporter clinton took questions for a second straight day today about debate prep and about her relationship with theo Clinton Foundation as secretary of state. Et lets not pretend there weree conflicts because there were not. Te back in session after seven a weeks off, republicans are renewing their calls for more criminal investigations. I think she misled me. Reporter texas senator jon cornyn wants the attorney general to appoint a special prosecutor, but even he admitted the evidence is lacking. Nobody is claiming that there was a quid pro quo, in other words, the Clinton Foundation, that she did things officially in return for support for the Clinton Foundation, but thats issues where the appearance of impropriety undermines the publics confidence in theof integrity of our government is so important to maintain and avoid those conflicts of interest. Reporter cornyn said clinton violated a promise to him before she was confirmed that there would be no overlap between the state department and the Clinton Foundation. Clinton argued republicans are on an endless fishing t expedition, even after the state department and the f. B. I. Determined there was no wrongdoing. Nancy cordes, cbs news, tampa. Pelley nationwide polls show that the race is tight, but the election is not decided by the National Popular vote. The only thing that counts is the battle for key states that add up to 270 electoral votes, and that race is not close. Anthony salvanto is our cbs news director of elections. Anthony, what are you seeing . Reporter well, thats right, scott. This is a statebystate battle. In leads in battleground state after battleground state, some of them slight, depicted here in light blue, but some of them sizeable, depicted here in darker blue, with doubledigit leads, but a lead is a lead. And all of that adds up to if the election were held today, a sizeable electoral vote advantage for Hillary Clinton, far more than the 270 that she would need. Ge in fact, its so large that if she were to, say, drop a state win the other states in which she has a lead, she would still get elected. Pelley but, what could change before election day . Well, a lot, scott. Two months to go. We have never seen a front runner with unfavorable ratings as high as Hillary Clintons. That introduces some uncertainty into this race. Also many of her voters tell us that they are with her only to oppose donald trump. So she has an Enthusiasm Gap to make up. Next two months if shes going t to turn those polling leads into real votes. Pelley anthony salvanto, thanks.
