Hillary Clinton’s post-convention bounce may be coming back down to earth – at least in some parts of the country – as new polls show a tightening race against Donald Trump in several battleground states, especially when Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson is factored in. A Monmouth University Poll released Wednesday showed Clinton holding onto just a 2-point lead in North Carolina. She leads Trump 44-42 percent in the state, while Johnson is pulling 7 percent. The poll also shows Trump with a double-digit lead among independents. North Carolina is one of several battleground states considered critical to Trump’s hopes of capturing the presidency in November. He still trails in most s...

The 2016 battleground map is tilting in Hillary Clinton's favor, according to the latest ratings from the Fox News Decision Team -- as recent polling shows the Democrat widening her lead over Donald Trump in a handful of states likely to decide the White House race.

With the political conventions behind them, Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee are scrambling to close their ground game gap with Hillary Clinton –boosting fundraising and concentrating on vital battlegrounds, even as some sources suggest they have a long way to go.

In a sign they're taking the task seriously, the campaign on Wednesday aounced $80 million in donations for the campaign and the GOP in July, money that can be used to target their m...

After CBS "Late Show" host Stephen Colbert told viewers that lawyers representing his old Comedy Central show said he couldn't be "Stephen Colbert" anymore, he thumbed his nose at them with a transparent dodge. Lawyers representing his old company complained to CBS after he revived the character he played under his own name on "The Colbert Report" — a clueless, full-of-himself cable news host. They said that the character "Stephen Colbert" was their intellectual property, "which is surprising, since I never considered that guy much of an intellect," Colbert said on the "Late Show" on Wednesday. The audience booed when Colbert, "with a heavy heart," said it has been decreed that the cha...

PHILADELPHIA – President Obama invoked his“Yes we can”2008 campaign sloganWednesdaynight at the Democratic National Convention, leaving little doubt that his declaration that Hillary Clinton was“fit”and“ready”to be commander-in-chief was abaton-passing of his eight years in office— a legacy that Republican nominee Donald Trump immediately attacked as “Owning the 3rd Term.” Capping another night of Trump bashing— briefly interrupted by the official nomination of Tim Kaine to be Clinton’s vice presidential ruing mate — Obama declared, “There has never been a man or a woman – not me, not Bill, nobody – more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as president of the United States of Ameri...

Senate Republicans have taken big leads in key battleground states, according to a new poll – suggesting the presence of Donald Trump at the top of the ticket may not be as damaging for congressional candidates as some party leaders feared and complicating Democrats’ hopes of taking back control of the chamber. Democrats are determined to pick up Senate seats this fall, and would need to gain five to win back the majority. The Quiipiac University Pollreleased Thursday, though, showed the top GOP candidates in solid position in Florida, Ohio and Pesylvania. While all three states have been eyed as potential Democratic pick-ups, Florida has seen the most drama lately, as former GOP presi...

Copacabana Beach is an Olympic construction site. The beach volleyball venue is going up, broadcast studios rise on scaffolding above the sand and a mammoth tent is jammed with thousands of pricey souvenirs. But there are few signs across town in crumbling, working-class areas that the Rio de Janeiro Olympics open in just a month. Promises that hosting the Games would remake even Rio's most ramshackle neighborhoods have been eclipsed by myriad problems: security threats and soaring violence, the Zika virus, slow ticket sales, and water pollution in venues for sailing, rowing and distance swimming. Hanging over it all is the impeachment trial of President Dilma Rousseff, expected to sta...
