Hillary Clinton is often at the center of controversy. But it would be a mistake to think this has undermined her candidacy, at least based on polling so far. As a political figure, she has a strong foundation.

Here are five charts, showing why she remains formidable

Can anyone watch Hillary and not think of the “Wicked Witch of the West?”

They control the media. They control the vote fraud. They control and select the candidates.

We are not the power.

She will be hard to beat because her sycophantic "It's time for a woman president" moron zombie base will vote for her regardless of her qualifications, ethics or intelligence.

It certainly isn't about her. It's about her base's retardation.

There is only ONE reason Willie’s “wife” will be “hard to beat”. It’s because the majority of the people living in this country these days are lazy thieves who want everything handed to them. They are the people de Toqueville warned us about.

That I believe. I work in a position where I come in contact with average Americans all day long. Most are absolutely as dumb as rocks. Sometimes the stupidity is just overwhelming.

You’re correct but the crucial event is turnout. She inspires nobody except the really dumb. Shes not trusted. It may be easier to flip states than you or i imagine. After the next election we may be reading about the obituary of the Dem party. They have no bench. Lets not forget that while we never trusted Obama we have to admit he inspired masses. They were wrong but it happened. Hillary will never reach that level of adoration.

Views of the economy—likely the top issue in the campaign—play to Mrs. Clinton’s advantage. She leads likely rivals among voters who say job creation and the economy are their top or second-highest concern

The memory of "Clinton's economy" might be enough by itself. Being a female will ensure she gets the moderate female vote. We need answers for both, and soon.

Most importantly, she is not talking to the press or anyone for that matter, about where she stands on any issue. We all know what when politicians’ lips are moving they are lying. She has perfected this and the press is following right along. When someone finally asks the tough question, her response is going to be, “oh, that was 2 years ago, so what difference does it make” and the press will continue to cover for her then too.

It is the like the perfect storm.

Iowa, Wisconsin, New Mexico, Nevada are all easily winnable. Would you bet your house on Hilary Clinton beating Scott Walker(the same guy that WON a recall election and TWO general elections in.just 4 years in blue state Wisconsin?) in Wisconsin for example?

I wish they were easily winnable.

I don’t think they are. For years, I have heard Pennsylvania was/is winnable for Republicans. Yet every year it goes for the Demon Rats.

True but then Scott Walker has actually won THREE times in Wisconsin in.just 4 years, after the Democrats and unions had mounted an unprecedented, massive national effort, with staggering amounts of cash and thrown everything including the kitchen sink at him. What makes you think Hilary, with all her negatives, is going to have any better luck against him in Wisconsin or even Ohio if he should win the nomination?
