An eight point win will put the House in jeopardy for the GOP. And that's not out of the realm of possibility.

No, it's not, but she needs a better than Obama 2008 level win to do so. I'm not sure she is going to get those kinds of numbers.

True enough. But Obama didn't face a circus clown as his opposition. If ever the stage was set for this possibility, this is the year.

Still trying to figure out how Republicans coined the ACA as "Passed in the dark" with a year of negotiating and live meeting on CSPAN.

True, but he didn't have the low favorability ratings that she has either. That makes her task more difficult. Now it's possible that since Sanders is out of the race her numbers will rise again. But at this point I'm not sure.
