Well, building up the ground operations is supremely expensive but critical to victory. It's also "invisible." She has more field offices and paid staff than anyone else running. No one can tell how effective this will be on the election day, but my point is that the impact will not be felt at this juncture.

Trump will NOT be the next president. The electoral map is extremely challenging for him to win. Democrats can afford to lose Florida, Ohio, Colorado AND New Hampshire and STILL win.

Trump's divisive rhetoric is stirring up hatred and sharply increasing racial tension in this country and the majority of Americans do NOT like that. He cannot win on his platform, period.

Hillary Clinton will be the next president, but I'm voting for Bernie. Americans do NOT want Adolf Hitler running the country.

Sounds to me like she making the same mistakes she made in '08.

Clinton campaign spends nearly 90% of money raised - CNNPolitics.com

Use City-Data. Go back to page 34 of this "Elections" section of the forum. That is where Trump first comes on the scene. Most of the post before that page are about the other candidates. Now, look at this page and a few of the previous pages. You will find out that Hillary's name only comes up one fifth to one seventh as much as Trumps. The other candidates are barely mentioned. If that is not enough for you go to almost any national news station and listen to who they are talking about.


I know that many of the threads and articles are negative about Trump. But his name is still right there in front of you; he is winning the war of name recognition. Once he solidifies the Republican Party behind him; he will roll right over Hillary or anybody else in his way.

It's going to be a sad, sad day for the Hill-billys when Hillary drops dead in 2016.

She isn't exactly the picture of health, and as Hillary said, "This campaign stuff is incredibly demanding and exhausting...."

The problem with old people is that they're old.

The problem with sick old people -- you know, the kind who have blood clots, concussions, and drinking problems -- is that they tend to die fairly quickly.

I'd agree but Trump's the same age as Hillary and Bernie's older yet.

It's like how the Chinese, Japanese and Koreans have traditionally bickered against each other, but if a non-Asian were to denigrate any of them, they would unite like crazy against the external enemy. Same for blacks - Africans and the Caribbean islander immigrants might look down on American blacks, but if a white person were to make an adverse comment against American blacks, they would all unite. That's just human nature.

Not quite true. Most Puerto Ricans really DON'T care what Mexicans want since they're fighting over many of the same things even tho ALL PR's are US citizens and don't have to worry about being picked up and get deported.

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)
Well, minus the childish language, I think whoever is the nominee of either party has a CHANCE of being President.

It's foolish to take a hard stance this far out, the Romney supporters of 2012 can tell you that.
