Hillary who from day one was predicted an easy run is still trying to convince the Democrats how great she is and how everyone loves Hillary.
reality she looks worn out, helpless when she mentions Bill will get the economy back on track which means Hillary can't do it herself.

Bernie voters dislike her more each day that's passing and Hillary has already given away how to attack Trump.
She has no cards left to play and the convention to be expected to be a war field is going to be a united one while the Democrats will have their war field convention.

Its a bit of a surprise. Some thoughts though, Hillary was ALSO predicted to win vs Obama. Remember how that worked out? She really is not as charismatic as her opponents, but she isnt seen as crazy like her opponents. Just a tad corrupt in my opinion. Which sadly is better then Crazy Trump.

This "bernie voters dislike her" nonsense going around is fascinating to me. While they may dislike her, they will vote for her over Trump. The main concern is if too many stay home, and Trump suffers from that as well. i dont think Trump can win without going more to the center, and thats risky as his base could freak out. Clinton has to worry about pulling in voters.

I would not be surprised to see Clinton pick a very popular vice president, with Sanders having some immense benefits as a possibility.

Look for the convention to settle it all. Might have some excitement, might not. But I don't see it affecting the end result of having another Democrat in the white house. The R candidate is just too crazy.

Clinton is a horrible candidate....but still better then Trump. And thats a pretty horrifying statement. Our presidency is being chosen by which candidate is the worst one, not which one is the best one.

This hasn't been a race since Super Tuesday. But the media loves an underdog story/narrative

Bernie is just an afterthought, Hillary is attention focused on Trump, not Sanders!

I hope Bernie hangs in there and benefits from "good things come to those that wait". I do wonder how many of his votes are simply "anybody but Hillary" and if so, those votes may just go to the best choice, Trump. We already know that some will vote Trump, because their conscience won't let them vote for Hillary and not voting help Hillary. Hillary is so BAD. Hopefully, she gets "hers" soon! With blood on her hands, she has no place as POTUS.

Recent polling shows 72% of Bernie supporters will vote for Hillary.

That is the BS story hillary is trying to sell, and no one believes her, either. Nice try though..!
The truth is, even an old, worn out socialist like bern is kicking her corrupt azz...
Those of you who dislike Trump, you're going to love him after he is elected and makes America great again, which he will do.. Then you all have to eat crow.
I was extremely disappointed when effeminate obama was elected, but I decided that since we're stuck with him, lets see what he will do and hope for the best.
I gave him the benefit of the doubt, but that didn't last long, as he has proven to be the worst thing to happen to America in over 100 years..
obama has left the country in shreds, and hillary will be the final nail in the coffin. Please don't vote for that corrupt witch, put America first...
NEVER HILLARY...!!

Who could have predicted this? Anyone that's watched the rise of Trump in the Republican party.


Obviously, Republican voters are ANGRY and unhappy with their political leaders. Democrats are not exempt either. BUT - they are not as angry and unhappy with their political leaders as the Republicans and that is why Hill is winning the race.


Polls show that 72% of Bernie voters will support Hillary in the general. Compared to this date in 2008 - when only 60% of Hillary voters said they would support Obama.


It'll all work out and President Hillary will be elected.

Hillary has moved on. Bernie's just tilting at windmills.
