Donald Trump +WASHINGTON: Coughing and choking became major topics of conversation in the US Presidential election as a new poll showed Republican candidatepull fractionally ahead of Democrat Hillary Clinton on Labor Day, which generally heralds the final nine-week stretch to Election Day.A CNN/ORC survey put Trump 45-43 ahead in a small national sample of registered voters. The numbers were within the margin of error to call it a tie. There are so many of them I've lost track of them. Trump backers returned fire, arguing that her health was a major concern even as the candidate himself adopted the line he used to destroy Jeb Bush in the primaries. While the Trump campaign is trying to throw Clinton off-balance with attacks on her health condition, the Clinton side is confident that she has the command to destroy him in the first of three Presidential debates on September 26 -- if she does not have a coughing fit.
