Hillary has led throughout and while there are enough nuts out there for trump to get close, there aren't enough for him to win.

However, there will likely be a recession in the next four years (12 years without one would be incredible), making a re-election very challenging.

They won't put up trump, he'll be too old (really he's too old now). If they sense an opportunity, they'll put up a strong candidate.

But yeah, I know, let's win this one first....

The clown car is how they ended up with Trump.

But yes, 4 years of more obstruction, a recession, and who knows what else and she might be vulnerable to just about anyone. The fact that she' not +10 ahead now is evidence of a problem.
