In 1948, many of the major newspapers predicted a Thomas Dewey victory over Harry Truman.  So much so that the the first edition of the Chicago Tribune the day after the election had front page headline saying DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN.

Dewey, like Clinton on Trump, was odds on to win the presidency.  Truman, however went cross country aboard a special train campaigning while Dewey flooded the airwaves and newspapers with campaign ads.

Like Truman, Trump has been busy campaigning state to state while spending a lot less in TV ads.

Will we see on November 9, a repeat of the Trump beating the odds as in Nov. 3, 1948?  Clinton has outspent Trump about 3-1. ABC, NBC, CNN and MSNBC has been undertaking an anti-Trump campaign for months and doing damage control for Clinton on controversies.

Will the silent majority even the odds for Trump?

Trump and Truman have the same 4 letters in their name T R UM ("p" for Trum-p, "an" for Trum-an)
