Yet they are in a statistical dead heat according to that chart.
That says the King is in bad trouble especially since Trump hasn't even started to campaign against her yet.
And when Trump first entered the race, Hillary had a 20 point lead over Trump. Once he begins focusing on her and all her baggage, the polls will swing Trumps way big time.
Sorry to burst your bubble the unbrainwashed, but Trumps about to unleash a can of whoopazz on that lying, kiniving, self serving battle-axe (aka Hillary)
Dead heat or not, winning even +1 or +2 still means Hillary wins. The GOP train wreck will be so much fun to see, 2016 will be for Republicans what 1968 was for Democrats
Trump's main base of support is the Deep South and Midwest, states with a rapidly shrinking white, non-college educated voter base.The GOP is definitely toast if blacks and Hispanics in swing states turn out like they did in 2012. In VA and NC, states with increasing white moderates and shrinking white RW extremists, will hand Hillary the election if Trump is nominated. Trump doesn't do so well with moderate voters which are concentrated in NoVA and Raleigh/Durham and Charlotte.
Nope. And I can see you don't know much about the South either.
Trump just held a rally in Raleigh. It was standing room only as 1000s showed up. I live in Charlotte and there is Trump support everywhere. I can tell you this, NC will never vote for Hillary Clinton. She lost here against Barak Obama, and she will lose here again against Trump.
Furthermore NC is one of the fastest growing states in the USA. There is no such thing as 'rapidly shrinking' voter base. For that you need to look at you own state were the middle class is packing its bags as fast as they can, and moving South.

^ this, excellent post
We need to branch out from angry White people. Unfortunately many of our contenders don't seem to get the message. Non-Hispanic Whites are down to 62% of the electorate, obviously not all of them are ultra-conservatives which means it's going to be pretty hard for any Republican to win the White House unless he/she expands their appeal beyond the usual GOP base.
Trump is not going to win anything. He can lose the nomination altogether, or he's going to lose in the general election as the Republican or the 3rd party. Either way, look forward to Hillary 2016 if Republicans hitch their wagon to Trump . Every pollster, with the exception of Fox News , predicts a Hillary win . Trump is Ross Perot 2016, and make no mistake about it
You may rest at ease then...nothing for you to worry about.
There is nothing for me to worry about. But, that doesn't mean Democrats should take anything for granted, either. Hillary is not the strongest candidate, but nominating an unhinged crazy will hand the election to her.

Ah the Ron Paul effect. All those super popular rallies and signs and stickers everywhere never translated into victory for Ron or Rand for that matter, and they likely won't for Trump, either.
Read my post. I said rapidly shrinking white, non-college educated voter base. Whites are shrinking as a share of the entire electorate, yes, but the GOP distinctly depends on white, non-college educated for their base. The fastest shrinking demographic in the entire USA are whites with only a high school or vocational school level of education. These are where Trump gets the overwhelming majority of his support

While you think that Hillary will sail through on the back of Hispanics and Blacks; I don't agree. Under Obama the middleclass has shrunk and legal Hispanics and the Black minority have lost ground to the outsourcing and illegal immigration - not to mention the robotics that will displace many more American workers. It all isn't rosy out there and many blame the current Democratic party. Don't start celebrating yet; the party did not even begin.
