In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton Will Never be President of the United States [View all]JGug1
(320 posts)I do believe your dogmatism is not well placed. Hillary Clinton remains, according to Nate Silver, FAR ahead of Bernie Sanders in all the caucuses and primaries that he is so far predicting. You may be able to make your case better if Bernie pulls an upset in Nevada, where Nate Silver gives her a 72% probability of winning. Bernie somehow beating her in South Carolina would absolutely be a game changer but it is so unlikely that Silver says Clinton is >99% probability of winning. She is well ahead in all the southern states where Silver has made a prediction.
I like Bernie. I think Hillary Clinton is a far better and more experienced candidate. The obvious reason that she has the baggage she has is that she has been in the arena for a very long time AND she is a woman who is hated by the Republicans.
Let's touch base after tomorrow night and see how we both feel.
Best.
